Notorious 419 - 45th Overall Worlds 2018 (6-2 Swiss)

Piloted this deck to a 6-2 record (plus one ID) in the Swiss at Worlds 2018. Defeated 5 Mti Mwekundu decks and an Azmari, and lost to a Palana net-damage deck (ran out of cards) and a Mti deck (had no money, the Rogue Tradings were the bottom three cards of my deck).

I felt Nexus 419 was in a good place going into worlds, with a strong glacier matchup and a reasonable CtM matchup. He was weak to SportsMetal combo/Titan rush, and probably can't deal with asset-spam decks, but was probably slightly favored against Argus/Outfit. A couple cards in particular to note:

Notoriety is the spice in the deck, and almost always worth playing. Often it can be trivial to run the servers once set up, or even earlier if the corp has gone low on credits to score an agenda. Primarily there to deal with 6-agenda Azmari decks (and it did in fact help me win my Azmari game in that manner), it's decent against most decks. Political Operative was found to be vital to deal with Bio Vault or Batty, or really whatever annoying asset or upgrade they have in a server.

No Diversion of Funds - an odd choice to be sure, but this deck can't always take advantage of the tempo that this pseudo-siphon gives you, and it's almost always more important for you to make credits than to take theirs. Could arguably replace the Dirty Laundries with DoF but they're quite good for tempo against early spam decks. For two clicks I'd rather gain 6 and trigger my Sanctuary/Taps trace.

No barrier breaker - arguably, one of the more annoying leave-outs. In a meta of nothing but vanilla and NBN barriers (aside from Wraparound), Aumakua is enough. When there's a lot of Envelope or other medium-strength walls, it probably is not a bad idea to include an emergency Tycoon/Breach. Don't quite know what to cut for it right now though - possibly a Dirty Laundry.
