The Bird's the Word

The bird lady didn't drop a single game at a 19 person SC. Alas, ETF hemorrhaged agendas to keep me out of the top four by virtue of extended strength of schedule.

It's a bit expensive and awkward to set up at times, but red cards are good (especially with blue and green cards) so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Outside of that, Vigil didn't see any play as Faust and Medium managed to pull the heavy lifting without much support. And the gasoline was unnecessary with the amount of draw.

Tactical runs are the name of the game. Melting ice is good too, stacked multi access is even better.

Woohoo, another generic Faust/Wyldside deck. Why even bother posting stuff like this? There's a billion copies of this out there already.

@piszczel why even bother commenting? It adds no value whatsoever (arguably negative value). Just ignore decklists you don't like.

@piszczel because I built it and played it and liked it and did well with it and I'm sorry to have offended your sensibilities ¯_(ツ)_/¯

@tradet I've commented because I'm browsing new decks in the sidebar and you just see the same stuff over and over again.

@piszczel

Ugh another comment pissing and moaning about Faust and Wyldside. Why even bother posting stuff like this? There's billions of comments like this out there.

@piszczel While you may be correct that it does contain the cards Faust /Wyldside you clearly do not understand the importance of this variant on the 'standard' deck. Now you may have noticed that I put standard in the little apostrophe marks, well there is good reason for that. Each card in a Netrunner deck must be chose for a reason. If Goats here is playing in SC that means that they are likely trying to win them and as such require a deck that is good for the game. working on the decision of weather to have 1 knifed or 2 add Vigil or go with Turntable, and the very fact that this is the barrier breaking bird are all critical choices that a deck builder must consider to diversify themselves in a meta where people will be expecting a so called 'standard' Faust/wyldside. Of course to go into the detail of why each card choice matters so importantly would clearly be wasted as you don't understand that as a card game each card matters. Please refrain from attacking peoples decks for no other reason than you don't like them and think you've seen them before.

@ABushelOfGoats I am wondering how reliable the 1 of e3 and datasucker are in games? does it come out fast enough or do you just hit the Faust wagon and ride it all the way home?

@aloofstone Wyldcakes helps me find E3, and while I'm thinking about it, Datasucker wasn't used at all either. Although it feels weird not running one in red, I may cut it for... Something.

As for reliability, E3 is just to supplement Faust and the Bird mid to late game against glacier. Also many keks were had when I tapped the bird and spent a dollar to blow up Eli.
