Angkas Tao goes to Binondo

TBH I just wanted to run a deck at my local GNK that I could post with some super vaguely Filipino and or Filipino-Chinese references.

My 100% True Deckbuilding method:

  • JoyRide is the name of a local motorcycle taxi service
  • Tao is Filipino
  • Unity
  • Add motorcycle cards
  • Trick Shots by the Magician
  • ???
  • A deck!

Initially I ran this deck with Swift, to go all-in w/ Deep Dives Swift Tao, but I got convinced that the bounce and swap just allows more consistency.

Trick Shot-ing R&D, swapping rezzed ice from remote w/ an unrezzed ice and bouncing it feels great

GGs to all my opponents! Had great fun playing this deck

Questionable card choices

  • 1x Because I Can -- for those undefended must trash remotes when you are tight on money -- I ended up not really using it during the day, but it was nice to have the option to get rid of Jinteki: PE shenanigans. (Jank)
  • 1x Maker's Eye -- Wanted some additional non-Deep Dive R&D pressure, for those moments where HQ and/or archives are well iced, digging for one agenda does open up the other servers for a deep dive too (Possibly not jank)

I think the Daily Casts can probably be other econ cards, and an alternative icebreaker suite can be considered.

Distinct lack of Hot Pursuit in this motorcycle deck!

Disappointing!

;D
