boat (4-1 at Torino CO)

jan tuno 3999

Just a boat deck. Some observations:

  • Into the Depths is really good and I think people are sleeping on it. The fact that with boat you can often guarantee entry into a server makes it essentially a better Laundry.
  • Depths also makes Self-modifying Code a lot less necessary. If they HHN you, just Depths a central and get Misdirection!
  • Hunting Grounds has a bunch of good targets and really helps in NBN matchups. Strong recommend.
  • Falsified Credentials was included because I (correctly) expected a lot of traps at this tournament. If you cut it and have influence to spare, Hippo is a very good option that helps your worst matchups (Aginfusion, Acme, Architects) a lot.
  • DJ Fenris should be Steve most of the times but sometimes Sable is correct. Don't forget Los exists too.
  • Clot is probably at least decent in this meta, but this kind of deck doesn't have much of an use for Simulchip so it's hard to justify all those slots.

Cards I'd like to try that I haven't had a chance to yet: Leech, Tapwrm, Conduit, Stoneship Chart Room, Imp, Rigging Up, Propeller. Still think I got most thing right and this is close to an optimal list, until the whole meta glaciers up.

At the tournament this went well, crushing a variety of corps (PE, Drago Pravdivost, and a couple of Obs). I lost to an Outfit deck where I just didn't have the patience to play around Punitive Counterstrike correctly because it was round 5.
