Who needs tech anyways? (13th @ BCOM)

Tech? Never heard of it.

With the booster giving us Light the Fire!, our first thought was that it would push PD right out of the meta and might fix the last bad matchup that Hivemind MaxX always had. But actually playing against it, the speed that PD can bring was very overwhelming. You either didn't draw your 1-of LtF or when you did, the Corp had the Border Control ready for you. Recurring it in time with Labor Rights is also very hard, as the clicks necessary mean that you need to be lucky on your 1/3 chance of hitting it on your draw.

So I went back to the roots, ripped out all tech cards and replaced them with 3 copies of Dirty Laundry. The good old route of solving your problems with money.

It did work surprisingly well on the day, losing only once in the team tournament and twice on the main event (with the first loss being a very avoidable death...).

Some more testing might show that 2x LtF is the way to go, but for that call, the meta needs to stabilize and the best Corps need to be known first.
