9th place in Berlin Store Championship (21/02/15)

ike 1

So I was the first loser (there was a top8). I was planning to use Leela in Berlin, but on the night before I replaced about 1/3 of the cards in the deck. And here it is the "might deck" I have figured out.

I was hoping that Leela will be a bit of surprise, but... well... I think that Leela was even more popular than Andromeda.

I played against NBN:MN (win!), NBN:NEH (lose!), HB:EtF (win!), NBN:MN (win!) and Weyland:Blue Sun (lose!). The second game against the overall winner of the tourney, but still... double Eli on HQ really hit me hard. Against Blue Sun I've misplayed badly, which allowed my opponent to Scorched me.

The thing with the deck: you need Logos ASAP. And try to do "regular" Criminal stuff, but do not allow the corporation to rez too much stuff. After few turns (or maybe when Corporation scores the first agenda) you have to choose. HQ or R&D pressure. Usually it will be Keyhole for R&D. When you see Jackson in play - you can leave agendas in Archives - just use Hades Shard paying full price. If you go HQ way - remember that you can derez some stuff using ES on R&D and try Indexing.

Inside Jobs are for remotes surprise. Mimic is here because I hate Architect. Crash Space is an experiment (and I try to remove tags using CS), but sometimes I do enter tag-me mode - it depends.

I think it's possible to remove Mr. Li and Security Testing. I wish I could have break Eli's more efficiently though...

Oh. There were 22 players. And for a guy, who plays kinda casually - I'm pretty happy with the outcome. But a bit disappointed, that I could have been in the top and just missed. :) Oh well... better luck next time.
