Chester - Table top shop - SC | #1 of 14 | BeNNyBiLL |
Wrexham - 4th Planet - SC | #1 of 13 | BeNNyBiLL |
This is the deck I piloted this weekend to secure back to back victories in both the 13-player 4th Planet Games SC in Wrexham and the 14-player Tabletop Game Shop SC in Chester.
The deck was undefeated in Wrexham after 6 games. The deck won 4 of the 6 games in Chester.
The deck name comes from my friend Jonny, who after looking at the deck list proclaimed "It's like every other HB deck, but it's spicy!".
3x NEXT Gold is essential. Rototurret is your 4th smaller gold. Once you have money and Batty in play then its usually a case of winning a psi game and its GG. FIHP can continually cycle the Batty's back for more if you can't win your psi. The other operations do nightmarish things to the runner. I guess you can call that "The Spice".
No Hedge Fund because AAL in ETF nets you more value if you trigger on your opponents turn. It also lets you bait Temujin Contracts and is another target for FIHP.
I was lucky enough not to see Rumor Mill. Anarchs seem to prefer Employee Strike in my area (thank the lords!). Maybe Switch HBT for another ELP if you think that card is in circulation.

At first glance it did look like the popular HB list, same agenda suite, next ice but 3x Batty made my eyes pop out :) I think I was rather fortunate to not come up against this at the weekend. |

What do you think about the lack of Biotic Labor?? That's the only hesitation I have to pull the trigger on running this deck... It looks strong. |

If you want to pilot this deck, forget about rushing to 7 agenda points. You just need 10 credits and a batty gold server with something to bait it with. When they run it, and you win the psi game, they either flat-line to net damage, or they lose their whole rig. In which case you score out behind some ETR ICE that they can no longer break. |

All that said, you do have tech in here to answer both Şifr and Rumor Mill in the Hellion Beta Test and the Enhanced Login Protocol. |

I wouldn't worry too much about the NEXT Gold's getting parasited as the psi game will likely be lethal or will destroy the entirety of their breaker suite. If all else fails use FIHP to reinstall both the gold and the batty and try again. ICE destruction match-ups can be tough but keep using friends to get ICE back and use jackson to get friends back in the deck when possible. |

Won a SC with a deck based off of this. Wouldn't cut the Helion Beta Test. Knocked out a Wyldside on turn 2 or 3 against a Dumblefork, which allowed me to coast to the win.
