1/10/2015 Winter GNK Winner: Near Earth Hurt

Won a local tournament with this variant of the ID every one has a love hate relationship with. Won all 4 rounds with it and funny thing is, the cat was let out of the bag pretty early every game and this pulled out the win despite all that (2 flatlines and 2 by AP).

At the heart of any scorch/Midseason deck is it's economy and this employs a mix of operation and asset econ but is not reliant on either if your back is pushed against a wall. Assets not only serve as draw but either scores, punishes, or is just straight up bad for the runner. There isn't an asset in this deck that shouldn't be trashed at one point or another and the runner's that trash a little too much find themselves vulnerable to Midseasons. The rest is history.

ICE is a little tight but is easy enough to find with all that draw this pulls, not to mention cheap. The MVP of it's suite is most certainly Data Raven, even in it's Biotic version brother DR either stops them dead in their tracks or taxes them with removing the tag the click after that. Either way is just fine.
