Rochester

Ottawa GNK, 3-1 swiss. 2nd place overall.

This deck is a mostly typical tagstorm deck. It does require a bit of finesse and courage to play, since most of the ice is porous, and not very numerous. One thing to note is the lack of Astro. It actually doesn't fit in the deck.

Most of the time, you're setting up for Midseason/PsychoBeale. You can threaten a kill, but don't rely on it.

You can, if you're getting the ice early, set up a scoring server and score out the 4/2 agendas. If they're run on, it's no big deal if you have a Midseason in hand.

I've found that even a Melange can sit behind a Raven for a few turns before they run it. By then, it gets out of hand. I had one game where I hit it about 6 times before it was run.

Yes, this is vulnerable to Film Critic. Yes, this is vulnerable to Clot. You know what? Who cares? Play like they don't exist. Most of the time, they don't. The times they do, it's not so bad. Just keep your composure. You'll find the answer to them soon enough.

Let them run scared. Delight in the fear of tags. Learn to cackle maniacally.

Enjoy.
