#value#tempo (6-2 across two regionals)

MrBuggles 592

Tournament 1: Went 3-1, wins against Titan, Acme and Titan in Swiss, lost against Mti in the cut.

Tournament 2: Went 3-1, wins against Azmari, CTM and Azmari, lost against Mti, all in Swiss.

I’d been playing various iterations of Maxx for a while (reg, then bendy), and wanted to try out some new cards.

I took @CritHitd20’s list as a starting point (https://netrunnerdb.com/en/decklist/51078/patchwork-maxx), took out the cards I didn’t like and came up with this.

I assumed lots of people would be on decks that didn’t care too much about Clan Vengeance (which I was totally wrong about), so went with this build. It felt incredibly solid - gets money when it needs it (Patchwork letting you chuck the econ card you don’t need to get a discount on the one you do), plays indexings, stimhacks and/or Maxwells remotes, all things you would expect really.

I was especially happy with how it performed against Mti in tournament 1 (having 3 Maxwell really helped here!) - I threw the game away when I felt in control, 4-0 up having stolen 2 Niseis and greedily mad-dashed R&D for the win, forgetting that Carver doesn’t help against DNA and only having 5 creds and 2 cards in hand! My fault entirely, the deck felt great in this game.

So all in all, very happy with how it performed - it’s the most fun runner deck I’ve played, so give it a go if you don’t want to play CV!

All suggestions for improvements welcome... and yes, I clearly need to practise against Mti!

Congrats to the 4th place, M.! ;)

That MTI deck was nasty as hell. Glad to hear you've nearly won.

And thanks for the deck list. Been searching for a fun anarch deck without CV bullshit for a long time.
