Top Freedom CBI 2024 (28th Overall)

....and I was the only one, going 3/1.

Freedom in my opinion has always been one of the most versatile and fun runners, good into pretty much all match-ups, especially assets. You can already start to apply alot of pressure from just having a Fermenter on the board.

Bands, Moshing, Steelskin, and Gachapon together really solves his biggest challenge of sometimes being too slow to set up and get going, it's almost never an issue now.

Botulus and simulchip for some mulch play.

Hannah because it's just a great card and you can oppress even more in the asset match-ups.

Fenris in case you need some recursion.

Twinning for multi-access.

Hippo and chisel* for some ice destruction, break a hole in HQ, run it 3 times, trash everything in there! Goes well with my favourite thing about this build, the self-sustaining (late game) economy. The combination of Knobkierie, imp, consume, ideally Friday chip, and Freedom's ability for an extra counter, can keep you going indefinitely.

*can also be used as a psudo Parasite to help lower ice strength in the more difficult situation (e.g. Brân 1.0, Funhouse, MIC, etc)

Cards not used:

Yusuf - 2 mu can be an issue and barriers these days can be handled pretty well with just Cleaver. With all your other cards, you don't need it as a source of virus counters (VC) either.

Audrey v2 - just too clunky in my opinion, that first VC can be an issue, double ice early becomes an issue, and we don't have a lot of duplicate cards in our deck so having to decide what to trash may become an issue too.

Had a blast at CBI 2024, thanks again to everybody who made it happen.
