Ag of +5 Infusion [0-2, 4th at NJ CO]

RayS 43

Much like last time, I chose this deck by asking Lucas's opinion and he told me about an idea he and Dee had been turning over. It started with Sokka's corp from Nats and added 5 cards on the principal that your 4/2s are really good and this way you can add another without meaningfully increasing the agenda density. The list is definitely better than I played it, so I'm going to keep working on it a bit longer. (I lost to two Lats.)

+5 cards (and other considerations)

+1 Offworld Office

+2 Boto

+2 Vampyronassa

-2 Bacterial Programming

+2 Send a Message

-3 Hansei Review

+3 Regolith Mining License

The Hansei and 5/3 changes were suggestions from Dee/Lucas that I was curious to try out. In both of my losses I think that having Bacterial stolen instead of SAM would have made a huge difference. I installed a total of 0 (zero) Regoliths so idk about that one yet.

Chastushka still good.

On the runner side I went 2-0-1 with Tuno's Esa from interconts (wins vs Holoman Asa and R+, tie vs Sudden Azmari). In the future I'm going to try different ways to fit a couple Bahia Bands.

Also, I was matched against Alex in the first round and lost which I think brings the record to 0-6-1?... I'll have to try again next month in Jersey City.

And here I thought I was lucky to hit that 1x Send a Message! I think Bacterial makes things feel a lot smoother, I'd be curious to know the argument for more SaM.

@aureates: I spent the entire rest of that game wondering if I made a mistake by using the SAM trigger to rez Anansi instead of Thimblerig... I think I may have considering that my problem ended up being more about ice placement than cash flow.
