MAWHAMMER 2.5 - A spin-off no-one needed (10/38 @ York Reg)

Not much different in this new version of MAWHAMMER (special mention to Jamie who said he's been following the updates!)

I took out the single Emergent Creativity and plumped for a little more reliability in adding a Deuces Wild. Q-Coherence Chip made way for Beth with some additional economy. Utopia Shard was added as a possible saviour against Punitive decks but as it turns out, I should be trashing them anyway...

Not sure how reliable this deck really is though. It beat Swiftie's Biotech and mcg's Blue Sun by cheesing out 6 points within the first turn or 2 (and in mcg's case, trashing a Punitive in hand to go with it). This is what happens when you leave R&D open! I also beat sixtyten's Palana in normal MAWHAMMER fashion, including the fun Deuces Wild to steal a Maw'ed Obokata from 3 cards.

The deck lost to Havvy's Argus, who played a great ICE on archives to block Sneakdoor (Data Raven) when I showed it far too early. It also lost to Jonny's Palana, who told me after the game that I had already put the points I needed into Archives but he used Preemptive Action to save himself. It can be hard to judge when to check Archives and in that case, I think there were only 4-5 cards that were face down.

Not sure where to go from here. Will MAWHAMMER be able to make a winning appearance next time?! I don't know either, but it needs a little more econ boost and a little more draw. I'll carry on working on it and maybe it will appear again!

My thanks to Aki for hosting a great regional and thanks to everyone who played against me. A huge thanks to Aki as well for the Edward Kim: Humanity's Best Friend Alt Art ID!
