Surveillance MaxX (8th place at UK Nats, 6th after Swiss)

leachrode 1235

Notably the same archetype as Circadia's winning runner list, although I'm pretty sure his tech is slightly better. Rumor mill would have been incredibly useful against moon and with the sheer amount of recursion and click hungry aggression in the deck the Planned Assault barely got played all day.

Went 3-1 in the swiss and 0-2 in the cut (both games came down to slightly whiffed deep digs and some rushed play errors in the last turn against moon, c'est la vie).

Technically this deck is still alive post rotation with the core combo of fundamentally busted cards (mars for martians, counter surveillance, obelus, god of war, dean lister) and the turn sequence of "I take 22 creds, run r&d, access 22 cards, steal some points, draw 22 cards" is massively gratifying, but losing siphon, joshua b and deja vu probably demotes the archetype way way down to C tier or worse until a stronger self-tagging mechanism is printed again.

Roll on siphon 2.0
