PrePaid SuckerKate -2nd Place Manchester Regional

My runner half of the decks that got me 2nd at Manchester, UK regional. (Other deck is the far more interesting Blue Sun Deck titled "Fried Runner, sunny side up". My runner kate Only went 4-3 in the Swiss, but 2-0 in the cut - in the end, my Blue Sun flooded out twice against Alex White, once in the winners' semi-final, and again in the final, so I guess Kate didn't let me down when it mattered.

My 3 losses in the Swiss were to a NBN TWIY that taxed my clot recursion in round 2, an HB deck that just taxes my dogs out early in round 5, and from my reckless running getting me scored by Butcher Shop NEH in round 7. It beat Jinteki Biotech (Rd 1), cerebral imaging (Rd 3), HB ETF (Rd4), HB ETF (Rd 6), Jinteki RP (top 8 game 1) and classic astrobiotics NEH (top 8 game 2)

Datasucker was gold all day, and I didn't miss Utopia Shard at all in the games I played. The ability to deal with big ice, or even make taxing remotes less taxing was a huge boon. Memorable moments included atmanning at 4 and paying 11 to get through an Ashigaru, Stimhacking into R&D to steal an NAPD I couldn't afford to steal on an earlier Maker's eye (having already stolen one), a Hail Mary run after my deck was Chronosed away to steal one of 2 agendas left in my opponent's deck, and missing all 3 agendas in the TWIY player's hand with my legwork.

Changes?: I'd really want to get rid of Deus X, but that's just not my style. I'm just far too much of a toolbox player, and Deus x has saved my game on multiple occasions in the past.
