Boring-ass MaxX (1st place at the Birthday Blitz)

"It's a living..."

Not much to say about this deck. It is just Reg-Ass MaxX, a tried and true deck which has been good for ages. It took it to the Blitz (a tournament in which every round only lasts 35 minutes instead of 65) in Den Hague today cause I needed something FAST to not go into time constantly. I also felt like playing something different than what I am used to (shaper and Sunny). Only interesting choice is just 1 Levy, but that's because you want to go really fast, and Levy is a tempo hit. I included the one as a no-other-option back-up and only used it once in the tournament.

Outside of that, the deck is super straightforward. Be aggressive and run as early as possible. Get Maw out soon so the corp can't sit back to catch a breather. Don't be afraid to go into Omar very early, even with Same Old Thing, if you feel like you want to put the thumb screws on even tighter. I won 2 games where I only got 1 breaker out the entire time.

My biggest regret is not putting a Day Job in here to make the 'boring' joke work better, but then again spending 4 clicks on money is not what this deck is about. You go in hard or you go home to your daily grind. And it paid off today. I lost my first game against Jinteki PE and won against Asa Group, Palana, Jemison and NEH.
