The Tor Attack

Ironcache 720

A decklist I was working on before MWL 1.2 dropped. Was planning to do more testing with it, but MWL 1.2 has me wanting to try other things. It has had very decent success in my meta (results may vary against more competitive metas).

The fundamental combo is Paige Piper + Frantic Coding. When combined, you can use Paige Piper to search for any number of copies of the card installed (including zero; this is important. Normally searching for a card requires finding one, but that isn't applicable if you search for zero cards). The shuffle that happens afterwards interrupts the trashing effect (similar to ABT + Foundary), and thus you can prevent milling 9 of your cards (or not prevent, if you so desire).

Along with Paige, we roll several high-impact resources with duplicates to pitch and deck-thin. Reina + Xanadu feels mean. Bhagat + Maw feels disgusting. UW + Opus economy (w/ Archivist + Reina link) is great.

Goal is early Opus, then address issues, apply economic pressure, address more issues... it's Netrunner, not rocket science.

Name is a play on Torre Attack (chess opening). I was hoping to give Reina a better send-off, but my time and interest are both running out. If you are looking to play this post MWL 1.2, I think you could do -1 RM, -1 Temujin, +1 Interdiction, +1 Political Operative as a starting point.
