Old Noise New Toys

jalube 83

The familiar Noise-shop with a few new goodies.

The conspiracy breakers are great with pawnshop economy; I often just sell them the turn after installing if they're not needed immediately to use the money on other things, or to free up MU if I don't have Sifr out yet.

Sifr lets Noise be a bit more aggressive, as we don't need to build sucker tokens to destroy ice. Previously it was difficult to threaten more than the corp's weakest central, Sifr lets us get in where we need to. But as usual we do a lot of faceplanting.

I've sacrificed the 3rd pawnshop for Aaron as a meta call, which is just an incredibly powerful card. Our economy is resource-reliant and staying tagged is generally inadvisable.

Not too much to say about other card choices, the shell is the same as you've seen before. At the moment 3x Imp is absolutely necessary, and is the most-recurred virus. Lamprey is probably second, as it forces the corp to protect hq or purge. 2x Inject/2x Rumor Mill could be IHW, Peddlers, or other tech depending on your preference.

Something is up with the site at the moment. What cards are missing from your list? 2 Sifr and 1 Aaron?

What's your contingency plan for Ark Lockdown?

@lunchmoneySomething with the Quorum update caused cards not to show up in decklists unless you clear your cache (or something like that). It's 2x Şifr and 1x Aaron Marrón. They show up fine for me.

We don't care about Ark Lockdown all that much since we are often using Parasite to break ice anyway. I've had games where multiple breakers are removed to minimal effect. If you're super worried you can just install Black Orchestra from hand, since Lotus Field and Magnet are the only things that could lock us out.

Having 3 copies of a single important virus locked down would be a bigger problem, but we can play around that if suspected by not allowing 3 copies in the bin.
