Boomer Café 🍽️ [2nd @ Colorado June GNK]

* Offer not valid on all board states, limit once per turn and per run, 2 unique connections not included, terms and conditions may apply

Pauleʼs Café quietly got some huge boons recently:

• Juli lets you load up the Cafe clicklessly, while adding to your connection count
• Trick Shot acts as Overclocks 4-6
• “Pretty” Mary: another playable connection which pays for itself, makes your Trick Shots into Maker's Eyes, and accelerates your Conduit digs.
• Coal is sheer gas, and another way to launder Overclock credits (even without the once-per-turn discount).

IMO it's a trap to try to max out the Paule discount too hard: you start to get efficiency payoffs at 2, in addition to delaying installs until you need them (and occasionally double-dipping discounts with DZMZ).

TODO

This deck has good bones on it and it's super fun, but it still needs a little work:

• 47 cards was a last-minute panic move to try to smooth out regularity (3rd Nuka, 2nd SMC).
• I think I'm ready to bail on Inversificator. It's powerful in the right matchup, but the install cost is too damn high, even not paying full price.
• Pelangi is probably less needed without Inversificator, potentially freeing up a slot; though it does a fair amount of work to threaten two-ice servers in the early game.
• Also meh on Pressure Spike.
• Hush is clutch in some matchups, but kind of on the fence with it.
• Same with Turbine: it feels wrong not to play such a busted card, but I find I don't install it in a lot of games.

Next iteration will probably be:

• -1 Pressure Spike
• -1 Pelangi
• -1 Inversificator
• -1 Dr. Nuka Vrolyck
• +1 Gauss
• +1 Euler
