MWL Friendly Professor

norwegiangeek 26

Huge thanks to Gumonshoe (http://netrunnerdb.com/en/profile/906/gumonshoe) for the vast majority of this deck ( I swapped 1x Aesop and 1x ProCo for 2x Workshops).

This actually won a smallish GNK at FFG (21 People) going 2-1 for the day after a crazy lucky last round. I saw 3 agendas in 4 cards on like turn 4 thanks to Medium.

My corp was a boring NEH Turtlebacks/Team Sponsorship.

Thanks again @gumonshoe!

This is not actually MWL friendly, Yog.0 reduces influence now. And influence cannot be reduced to below 1. Which means that Professor would not be able to have ANY NAPD MWL cards in his deck at all.

This also goes with Clone Chip. This really nerfs The Professor hard after thinking about it.

@Im_cypher Nope. Damon Clarified. A runner's influence can not be lowered below 1 means that no mater how many MWL cards you include, it can't lower the influence below 1. 1 is a hard minimum and nothing you can do will lower it, even though it should. That's why you get the Clone Chips as well.

He has commented on Facebook, which has been posted in this thread; www.reddit.com

Personally I find that him personally responding to individual posts on Facebook is an ass way to hand down rulings.

It's printed in the updated tournament rules that influence cannot be reduced below 1. It's pretty clear that all Professor decks are MWL friendly.

Damon was just being nice by responding on Facebook instead of saying "read the rules".

Would it be better to replace 1 Sahasraraand 1 Aesop's Pawnshop for the Personal Workshops?

@Andy G That's a much better idea. I almost always had a Sahasrara clogging up my hand
