Job-hunting (L4J) Hoshiko [Startup]

Davidmc7 192

Just a simple, fun to play Hoshiko deck.

I prefer to spend influence on Boomerang than to play Botulus for the low MU and immediate threat factor. A single Simulchip in there to get your clot or if you face rigshooters. This deck used to run three but I replaced two with Creative Commission to get a bit more burst economy.

Draw shouldn't be a problem with Earthrise, DreamNet and Hoshiko's ability. I used to run Mimic instead of Odore but Archer, Colossus and Ansel are pretty prevalent in Startup (a single leech token will help with the latter).

You can usually setup pretty quickly and threaten early with boomerang, and Econ is rarely an issue with good resources and career fair. Stargate is there to close the game, but feel free to cut the Creative Commission and slot Conduit if you prefer.

The 46th card here is probably Ice Carver, but it's done me right a few times so I still keep it. Playing Anarch without at least a single Clot or Imp just seems dumb at this stage.

If you're looking for something a bit more consistent, the Dead-Draw Hoshiko deck list is probably better.

Enjoy!
