SPARK THE FIRE (16th at German Nats)

German Nats was pretty fucking cool. My first ever netrunner tournament. and I placed 16th out of 50! As a corp deck, I brought a slightly modified Shooting the Moon.

About the Deck

This is just tunos SPARK45 list (which i love) with Light the Fire! added on top. Thought that card could be helpful tech against Azmari Kill. Didn't encounter any at German Nats, so that's that.

The Tournament

Went 3-2-0 with this deck (2-2-0 with my corp) in Double Sided Swiss.

• Round 1: Ran against rustryder piloting AgInf. Got myself redirected into an already rezzed Saisentan, Flatline through events.
• Round 2: Another AgInf matchup against TwadaCZ. Here I had better momentum than the corp, managed an early steal and contestation of the remote, then we went to time.
• Round 3: Against Alecthar piloting good old Precision Design. The details are hazy and I don't quite remember how I won. Must have accessed them agendas somehow.
• Round 4: Running against wowarlock piloting Asa in a 2-4-1. Trashed some assets, got lucky with topdecking an Ikawah Project from R&D and later sabotaging agendas into unprotected archives and fishing them out before they could be recurred with Project Vitruvius.
• Round 5: Match against J0N4LD piloting some scoring Ob. HQ was protected from Chastushka with a Crisium Grid, which is how I learned that Light the Fire! only works on remotes. Got rid of a Holo Man instead, which was quickly recovered using Ob shenanigans. I kept being on the backfoot here, and J0N4LD plainly outpaced me. I think I saw an SDS early before having any programs installed, that was a bad time.
