This was a variant of "Dumpster Gambling" that I'd been tooling with for awhile, until the MWL came out...and I decided it was a good time to ignore it. I managed to go 3-0 during Swiss (my corp game went to time first round and I didn't get to play this deck), then lost at 6 points to Fastro in elimination.

The deck is a toolbox; it can deal with anything. Between Scheherezade and the Technical Writers, you get a ton of mileage out of your installs, although I think I want to add some more economy. There's usually enough to throw something to Aesop's most turns, too.

Changes I might make in the future: Losing the PWs and the Multithreader, possibly in favor of additional econ like Daily Casts.

Always funny to see The Professor in action though I'm surprised you got to Top 4, nice!

Why Maya out of interest, is it solely for the +2MU? Doesn't seem like the other ability is that useful to you.

Yes & no. The MU was the main reason, but the ability to bury a clinch card (like Scorch) shouldn't be overlooked. As long as you don't run last click and have the money to fade the tag, it can be worth it.

Also, if you absolutely have to Hail Mary on a last turn Medium dig, it buys you one extra card. Which I wouldn't recommend unless you have no other option, but then again, this deck is all about having options all the time.
