GumOnShoe Sol (1st, Chimera Nottingham SC)

ptwiddle 50

This is almost exactly GumonShoe's list; I wasn't feeling the current standard NEH builds; started building Sol on my own and enjoyed it a lot more, and then found GumonShoe's list which was better tuned.

The deck was only 3-2 on the day, and was carried by Noise a bit, but one win was against Evilgaz's noise round 1, and another against the top seed's Noise in the first round of the elimination, so I'll take it.

Not much to say, other than an Atman at 4 wrecked me and I'm testing wall of static instead of Bastions; Breaking News into trashing a resource won two games and I'd almost try to find room for more. Publishing for reference.

I've been playing with the soloboy deck for a while, and I've found that a singleton lag time can be fairly effective against a lot of Matchups, especially Atman heavy decks.

Glad you had some success with the deck; agree it's a bit weak to atman 4; If you don't see any corroder or lady in your meta, just run the static.

I have found trading Lily Lockwell for Lag Time helps deal with Atmans and D4s. Also makes Wall of Static less fun to run through.

Does Paywall Implementation play a vital role here, or could it free up influence and get replaced by Predictive Algorithm?

GumOnShoe swears by the paywall -- and it can really help the econ. Made the game I played against headlock Reina at the tourney fairly easy. But Predictive Algorithm might not be a bad replacement if you wanted to switch -- it doesn't actually cost you anything.
