Queen's Injection (2nd Place, Guardian Games ST 10/18/14)

GRNDL 133

This deck took 2nd place at the Guardian Games Store Tournament. Final outcome 3 Wins 1 Loss. Played against Blue Sun, HB ETF, Jinteki RP, and NBN NeH. Only loss was to NBN NEH, he got his astroscript running and I just couldn't pluck them out of his hand.

Key Events/Notes...

  • Pulled 7 Agenda Points on turn 5 (6?) from a Legwork against Blue Sun.

  • I only had to click for credits once.

  • Managed to use Inject without any recursion (ie Retrieval Run, Clone Chip etc) Though I'm definitely considering throwing them in. I could use Inject with abandon.

  • Legwork was king.

  • In practice I got more use out of Medium and Nerve Agent. Considering removing them for Retrieval Runs etc. Same goes for Maker's Eye. I didn't use any of these during the tournament.

  • E3 + David/Overmind/Knight = Amazing

I only needed to use Parasite a few times. I do miss my Imps...

What do you use Same Old Thing for ? And how often do you get to use Queen's Gambit?

@Happyam - Same Old Thing is used to recur all the run events or in some extreme cases Inject, Déjà Vu, Queen's Gambit etc. Speaking of Queen's Gambit I used it often. Some how I managed to never advance an agenda. Against Blue Sun, I had a turn 2 double Queen's Gambit play on an open remote (Didn't bother to check first.). Turned out I advanced a Jackson Howard 6 times. Uber Gamble...

@Meristem - Thanks! :D
