Weyland 4 Life! Top cut at Regionals

I recently took this to a local tournament which had 20 players, and it ended up going undefeated 5-0. I had been matched up with Gabe, Prepaid Kate, 2 Chaos Theory's with Levy, and a Noise, and it scored off agenda points with scoring windows created off my upgrades. Let's get into specifics!

The deck has several synergies to itself. I purposely picked Chimera for on demand Will-O-The-Wisp targetting. With this play, if you have Targetted Marketting, you can safely call a necessary breaker they need to complete their rig. I had called out Corroder and Femme Fatale and netted an average of 20 credits during games. This plays into the next play: Corporate Troubleshooter.

A server with Corporate Troubleshooter and a Grim/Archer guarantees a snipe of a breaker. Knowing they'll play a necessary breaker to give you 10 helps you fortify the server.

Targeted Marketing I find is a advanced card. To play this effectively, you'll need to understand the various archetypes and their timings. You need to know cornerstone cards to play, I made in the late game, a call on The Maker's Eye since I hadn't seen it played past the first 20 cards the Runner had played as Kate, and I knew it was coming. The call netted me 20 free credits, helped burn a bunch of Clone Chips and Test Runs for Sharpshooter VS Archer, and netted the Runner nothing due to the fact I had most agendas in hand.

I love that Corporate Troubleshooter and Will-O-The-Wisp work with each other very well. Feinting each other and keeping the Runner guessing messes with their math/options, so it's great to have with each other. They also feint as Agendas, and can set up for brutal plays.

I put in The Root and it kicked bottom. I usually set up one server with big ICE, another with one Archer/ETR and a Will. On my turn, I install agenda/CT/Will, The Root in the other, rez it and advance the agenda or ICE another layer on the big remote with Root money. This forces the Runner into a fork and guarantees either that the Root stays up, or it goes away, I get a economy swing because of the run, and a breaker goes to the bottom.

This deck swims in Bad Pubilicity, I had won Store Championships with 7 Bad Pub, and I won at the local tournament recently with 5. You need to understand that Bad Pub is not always bad, as long as they don't have the breakers to get in. I'm still working on tinkering with the ICE suite, I feel I can optimize it better, but for now it stood the test of Runners, and I'm pretty confident with it. Any feedback is welcome, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask!
