Install, chop, reboot (German Nationals 2-5)

I'm very proud to show you my APEX deck I brought to German Nationals last week! It went 2-5 but had at least 2 or 3 more very close games at matchpoints. I have to mention that it was completely untested and I just hoped for the best =D For what it's worth, it was so much fun to play and didn't felt oftenly like getting nowhere like other apex build did for me in the past...

I would describe the first rounds as either early pressure because you have nothing to loose or as building you rig and waiting for the breakers to show up. In the midgame you can nearly contest any server and lock their scoring remote or pressure the centrals. But sometimes it was not fast enough, so I think I would get rid of the ice carver and include some stimhacks or a 3rd strike to encrease the pressure a little earlier. Not sure, though.

Trace Five had a livestream running and I was asked to show my deck, so it's on stream in the first round here:

The Apex match starts ca at 1:32:30 and ends 1:53:00. Although I lost this game it shows my econ engine very well and if you see the deck live you can imagine what pressure it could develop if my opponent didn't rushed this fast.

I hope some of you will give Apex a chance and try it out sometime =D Thanks for reading!

"I will live again!!!"
