Atlanta Regional 2016 - 1st Place Corp

I played this deck to a win at the Atlanta Regional Championship. You can find the deck in match play four times, in the quarterfinals, winners' semifinals, winners' finals, and losers' semifinals, during the videos produced by Peachhack on his YouTube channel found here: https://www.youtube.com/user/dodgepong. Note that Pacer and Ross played decks within two cards of this list (Ross: -1 Explode-a-palooza, -1 Mumbad City Hall, +1 NAPD Contract, +1 Archangel; Pacer: -1 Explode-a-palooza, -1 Mumbad City Hall, +1 NAPD Contract, +1 Little Engine).

This is a fairly standard Near-Earth Hub Fast Advance deck. However, it utilizes a full set of Mumbad City Hall in an effort to rush Mumba Temples into play. The goal in doing so is to threaten a very early SanSan City Grid that you can continue to threaten in quick succession.

A more typical NEH FA deck might use the Temples as supplemental economy and threaten an early SanSan through burst economy such as Hedge Fund. In having a more haphazard approach to its remotes, runners can frequently return to pressuring central servers once the SanSan is trashed. With this deck, you attempt to retain the runner's focus on the remotes. Sensie Actors Union serve to draw you additional SanSans while drawing the runner's attention with SanSan, frequently permitting the survival of Temples beyond their normally seen lifespan. Additionally, central servers are not attacked as often, easing your econ from not having to rez as much ICE.

The deck retains the speed of the standard NEH FA decks through the use of Sensie and consistent draws from the NEH ability due to a high number of cards available for installation. Shipment from SanSan allows you extend your scoring options past the rez costs that slow those NEH decks absent the card.

Beyond that there is not much to say. I have found the deck to be quite fun. If you have any questions, I will attempt to answer them satisfactorily.

Any comments on whether the resilience provided by the extra NAPD (as seen in the other 2 lists that you mentioned) is worth the loss of the extra MCH and the money that you may potentially get from the Explode-a-palooza?

This became my favorite deck, it was spammy, ran on low econ, you could be really obnoxious with the assets, while they are dealing with the assets you are trying to find a way to score the astros. RIP Astrotraine 2016. Hope you publish another yellow deck Mr. this one was A++
