Reilly's Got a Knife

This is the Noise deck that I piloted to 6-2 during Swiss (0-1 in Elim) at 2015 Worlds ending 11th after Swiss (16th after Elim).

The basic framework of the deck is standard Noiseshop, so I'll talk about my specific deviations...

Knifed:

If you leave this write-up and remember only one thing. Remember to try knifed in Noise. One of the most annoying ice you can possibly encounter as Noise is Eli. You can't D4V1D it. It takes three cards to break with Faust. It's difficult to parasite down. And they only paid 3 to rez it. Ugh. Don't even mention clicking through it repeatedly, I need my clicks for milling and getting all these incredibly useful cards out of my hand. And this kid is in all Foodcoats and AstroBiotics.

Wraparound is almost as bad. Normally can be broken once or twice with Faust or D4V1D. They drop a wraparound/Eli in front of R&D to stop your medium digging. Then you kindly show them that it didn't stop you at all. Look at their face when you do it! Surprise into horror. Feed on their emotions. It's glorious.

Oh, and I hear you in the back saying "run Corroder!" I don't have the memory space or credits to use that. I'm Noise, not Valencia. I explode things.

Clot - Need two if Astrobiotic is around. One doesn't show up soon enough.

I've Had Worse / Plascrete - I would drop the plascrete for one Inject if Haapsichord isn't all around. I like the two IHW though, more than enough kill out there in all factions to make it worthwhile.

Grimoire - Only one. Yeah, I want two, but gotta go fast vs NBN. Just manage your precious four memory. No Corroder means one more slot for parasite/imp.

Lamprey - Only one. I've seen lists with up to 3, and yeah it's a mill and profitable with pawnshop. I'd just rather run some econ or draw.

Sure Gamble - I like the burst over Daily Casts. There's always something to pawn, and I rarely go down to 0 at turn end, so it's pretty easy to reach the 5 to play it the turn you draw it. Plus, sometimes you get it turn one and you're just so much faster out of the gates. Going without any econ card besides Cache is a mistake I think, it's just too slow and requires clone chips & dejas to be used on cache instead of parasites/imps/clots.

The rest is pretty standard. Enjoy!
