Loss of Income

Income Tax 357

Not much luck so far. Still, it feels fun.

Rubicon + Infinite Money is really strong as it turns out.


Edit: Testing with the following.

-1 Run Amok, -1 Sacrificial Construct, +2 Laguna Velasco District.

Have you thought about trying to play Rosetta 2.0? It seems like it could be useful for tutoring out the Au Revoirs. You'd probably have to play some cards like Cache/Tapwyrm to support it, but it would help you set up faster.

I actually didn't think of that! That seems like a great idea. Maybe I can even swap the Mammon for another breaker set. Cycling Cerberus "Rex" H2 seems like a fun idea.

I haven't played your deck exactly, but I played a lot of Au Revoir Andromeda and CT, and they both leaned pretty heavily on Self-Modifying Code. While that's obviously an option, I think Rosetta looks more attractive just because it's in faction. Tutoring power can make or break this kind of engine. The tricky thing with Rosetta is just that you probably need to find more room for little 0 and 1 cost programs so you aren't losing value while tutoring your Au Revoir.

played against Valranoth today. A very rush HB deck. If it wasn't rush deck, this would completely lock me and destroy me

Taking a page from this Los deck and your suggestions, I'm swapping to a more traditional breaker set.

Drop Reflection for The Gauntlet for HQ multi-access and the MU needed to support the econ engine.

Putting Cache and Tapwrm should help with Rosetta 2.0 tutoring (gaining slots from not needing Special Order.)

Dropping the Temüjin Contract for Deuces Wild. While the econ was nice, if I can tutor quickly for the Au Revoir combo, I won't need it.
