Swift Maxx (Top 8 Continentals)

CritHitd20 6529

There was once a time when I was not just a memer and I played whatever I enjoyed at the time instead of forcing green cards. I hope you can forgive me.

Deck went 4-1 in Swiss and 0-1 in the cut, beating 2 PD and 2 Sportsmetal, losing to 2 Sportsmetal. Purple is good right now.

I love that there is no real way to play around this deck. You have Stargate pressure on R&D, Wanton on HQ, Omar on Archives, and Run Amok/Tread Lightly/Overclock on the remote. If they overcommit to everything then you can Apoc and do the busted Maxx Labor Rights econ thing.

Swift is excellent here, getting Wanton up to 4 trashes, and can help you Apoc through Crisium with any of your run events. Outside of those interactions just pretend it's a budget Aniccam. Maemi was fine, but I think it's the worst card in the deck and probably should have been more icebreakers. Run Amok and Tread Lightly did wonderful Blackmail impressions, and they all offer a lovely refund with the Swift click. I got my breakers Ark'd in one game and still could reliably get in anywhere with them.
