Controlling, Schmontrolling

First at SG Nationals 2016. My version of Biotic CTM - credit to @gejben for the list I copied.

I have a not-so-secret love affair with MVT, as my local meta can attest to, which I why I went up to 3 copies in favor of the tag punishment card duplicates. You generally find them in good time with Sensies anyway, but it does lead to a lot of hairy moments at 5-5 when the runner is tag-me and is just going through your R&D ice once/turn for single access, and you desperately trying to draw that one goddamn 3/2 or your EOI.

I do like this and other similar versions of CTM that shave the Bankers, because it is important to be able to compress your board in case of an early Temujin that gets out of control and obliterates all your assets. You can play the 'drag them through the Raven remote' game with BN, Sansan and MVT, which is something I highly value as well.

I might not have played Biotic were I expecting more Shaper, but I did feel that it was going to be a more Anarch/Crim heavy field, so Clot wasn't going to be as much of an issue. Season to taste.
