Super fun - 1-1 @Montreal GNK 2023-11-04

Diogene 4240

New Achievement Unlocked! Win a game with Superdeep Borehole in a competitive event! The deck only played two games, it won against Sable and lost against Hoshiko (6 single access resulted in 3 agendas by turn 6, so it goes, the runner played well). I am confident this would have won a second game if it had the occasion.

This deck wins games just because Pinhole Threading is played not as much anymore.

I should've slotted Pinhole

Game plan : put Superdeep Borehole in a remote and protect it with your life. Sometime, you get to punish the runner for scoring.

Mulligan plan : get Superdeep Borehole, or Punitive Counterstrike.

Never aim to score out with this deck, if you think about doing this, look for a better Outfit deck, this is not it.

The only change from the original is the replacement of Winchester for Afshar, because bad publicity makes Winchester truly useless. And like I said, we want 7x 3 points agendas.

While it did not happen at the event, half the wins with this deck are with Superdeep Borehole and half are with Punitive Counterstrike.

From the original deck :

We have money. Not just plenty of it, but a fountain of it. Even our trash makes money. And sometime, we ask a consultant to bring us more.

Here, Bio Vault is better than Anoetic Void, because it stop the only real problem for us.

Formicary allows us to do double duty at putting more ice on the remote for free, and doing the double Skunkworks trick by moving it after the runner has paid for Manegarm.

Magnet is there because Arissana Rocha Nahu: Street Artist and ANARCHS are mainstream.

Agendas are as few as possible. SDS Drone Deployment slows the runner and Send a Message rez ices for us (making it less likely to lose them to Hermes).

The plan is simple, win or concede. Because if we have 5 bad pub, we might as well be iceless, with no fast advance trick.

Thanks for all who came and played at Montreal GNK 2023-11-04. Special shoutout to Odonuvo for organizing the event, it was a blast!

Cheers!
