Boom Sun - 1st place 20-person SC (Vancouver, BC)

Took the Store Champ at Magic Stronghold in Vancouver Canada with this deck. Paired with a DLR MaxX identical to the one from Worlds this year. Both sides went 6-1.

tl;dr: Walk the line between scoring and killing. Then kill.

Best game of the day:

• Turn 1: ICE HQ, Hedge Fund, Credit.
• Turn 2: Credit, Credit, Midseasons the runner who just stole 2 GFIs. Stick 4 of them. They remove one on their turn.
• Turn 3: Credit, Install Hive on R&D, OAI it. Runner removes one more tag.
• Turn 4: Bounce the Hive, BOOM!

Some notes on cards:

Janus 1.0: This was the first time in over a year I'd actually run Janus in Blue Sun. I have been running a lot of DNA Trackers recently. They're great, but Janus is much more of a late game these days. When games go long, this is a good way to tax people out.

Bulwark: This card is good. Worth taking a BP for. Just remember to put it somewhere you want it to stay.

Contract Killer: I put this in here because I was terrified of Film Critic, and Snatch and Grab wasn't strong enough. I wanted it for that, for kills maybe, and for baiting runs. It did nothing. Should have been a CVS.

The third BOOM!: I've seen people claim otherwise, but I don't think you need it. By the time you want to use one, you'll have found one or a Consulting Visit. And Midseasons means you can often slow roll the kill while you find it.

Consulting Visit: is bae.

Scarcity of Resources: You need a current to fight Employee Strike. Full stop. This is the best one, costing a runner 12-14 credits in one of my games. Another game had 5 currents played in 10 turns. As Lukas intended.
