The New Model - 1st place local tournament

Exo 355

This is the deck I've brought to a local store tournament and went undefeated with it. The best description of the deck I can do in one word is: Unstoppable. You keep installing taxing ICE each turn and there is mostly nothing the nunner can do when you get to mid-game.

In the final I started with no ICE and a 3 pointers. I had to Jackson 2 times to get 1x Ice wall. This was a really bad draw and before that mulligan it was even worst. During that time I have been Leg Work, Vamp to 0 and Maker's Eye to loose 4 points there and I've been able to recover and win the game.

This deck lost 1 game from days one of its creation and it was to a lucking pull with Maker's Eye too, for 5 points.

The deck I ran was using 3x Punitive Counterstrike (-2 Crisium Grid, -1 Restructure) but I never used them, so I would replace them ALL DAY LONG for at least 2x Crisium Grid (maybe even 3). Crisium mainly say: Bye bye The Maker's Eye, Indexing, Vamp, Account Syphon and the worst here, Emergency Shutdown.

Another good point is that it counter Yog.0 + Data Sucker combo. The deck have enough ICE to protect Archives early and it have Power Shutdown and Lotus Field.

Lag Time is the last nail in the coffin. When Lag Time hit the table and you got most of your server 3 ICE deep, it is really hard for the runner to do something about it. Early, you can use it to make Caduceus un-Mimic-able if it's needed too.

I think that pretty much sum up the whole thing for now, I don't want to write about it too much for nothing. If anyone have questions, I'll be please to answer them. :)
