Noise (Gatekeeper SC Melb, Aus 13/2/16)

Tied for 1st after swiss in a 24 player 4-round cut-to-top-4 Store Champs, but got knocked out in the top cut immediately.

The world changed. People did not.

Final results were:

1) Offerpalooza with Rototurret (instead of Swordsman) / Two-Armed Ice Bandit (Whiz)

2) (One of the TWA guys) Offerpalooza with Rototurret / Noise

3) Offerpalooza / Sahasrara Noise

4) (myself) Offerpalooza / Noise

NEH deck (Calimsha's deck, but renamed to Offerpalooza) here: http://netrunnerdb.com/en/decklist/31892/offerpalooza-gatekeeper-sc-melb-aus-13-2-16-

Beat Harmony Medtech, Foodcoats, Offerpalooza, and Offerpalooza, then losing in top cut to Offerpalooza.

I anticipated lots of NEH today, and I was right. 2x Clot did a lot of work. Scheherazade was good when it came out in one game, but in another game was just a 0 cost Pawnshop target. Daily Casts, again, is the weakest card in the deck, but having it early to smooth out your econ is so valuable.

I quite like Nerve Agent in place of the 3rd Lamprey. Its ability to apply pressure when corps are super rich, as opposed to Lamprey, is quite valuable. Also good for closing out the game, especially when Grimoire is in play. I've been using it for quite a while even before this tournament and quite like it.
