LEO: Humanoid/Red Level: 3-0 at 2025 Denver Megacity

I've been playing LEO since it came out, but I hadn't tried the Humanoid/Red Level version until recently. I took the following list and changed about five cards:

Game 1: Win vs Ryan w/ Baz

My opponent is a newer player but a really nice guy. Swift with S-Dobrado, Window, Tread Lightly and PAN-Weave put a decent amount of pressure on HQ but eventually it was defended by Hagan, Afshar, and Manegarm, and then I could focus on scoring out of the remote with Holo Man.

Game 2: Win (timed 4-3) vs Paul w/ Lat

Tranquility for MVP. It made so many credits. Humanoid also fired twice and did good things. Paul stole Send a Message early-ish which rezzed Mycoweb on R&D to slow down his Conduit. Eventually he had an efficient breaker suite of Unity, Echelon and Pressure Spike setup but he ran out of money after a few too many runs on R&D while the points were in Archives.

Game 3: Win (timed 2-0) vs Nick w/ Magdeline

It took a few turns to find Tranquility and start making money, but Nick didn't run much early while he did the usual shaper engine setup with LilyPAD, DZMZ, Coalescence, Simulchip, etc. This was a grindy game with LEO coming in clutch a few times. Nick never managed a Deep Dive and he just couldn't touch enough cards to see points without any other multi-access. My only two points were scored after Nick ran through a Drafter on HQ and I installed Ingatan from hand safely in the remote.

Thanks! I was lucky enough to move to Colorado two years ago and find a wonderful Netrunner community here!

I really enjoy this list, esp. the ice suite and the agenda mix works very well imo!

I've had a lot of success playing on jnet with the following variation:

-1 Holo Man, -1 Manegarm Skunkworks

+1 Predictive Planogram, +1 Key Performance Indicators

It's just slightly more money and operations to match the humanoid resources with. I like KPI in this because of

(1) the mode where, humanoid fires, you install an agenda, and then KPI puts one advancement counter on it, can feel pretty smooth

(2) it gives you another way to shuffle an agenda back in
