[STANDARD] www.Kit.com/dash (0-3 at Victory Point CO, 12th

This is my www.Kit.com Deep Dive list with two Mad Dash to help with the PD matchup and Azmari Reeductation and makes it so you only need to steal 3 agendas vs the PD / Asa agenda suite or 2 vs Az Reeducation.

I found that this 3x Deep Dive list plays much more aggro than control, especially when you draw one or two Deep Dives early and the corp isn't protecting centrals. The downside is that you have comparatively fewer tools to interact with the corp's board, and if you miss on the Deep Dives, then the corp runs away with the game.

Also, a lot of influence and deck slots go into enabling stealing 2 agendas off Deep Dives. Hannah "Wheels" Pilintra is a strong card but better used for interacting with remotes and control than just the extra click on Deep Dive turns, and having to crack her before doing the Deep Dive doesn't feel good when you whiff on agendas or only see one. Summoning Sable feels better, but you only really use her ability twice at most (which might be enough, to be fair), and it telegraphs very strongly to the corp (which might not always care, especially if they have a good board).

I never played Mad Dash, but I still think it's necessary against PD/Asa decks and Azmari Reeducation, and possibly even the AgInfusion glacier. I don't think it belongs in a Deep Dive deck though.

Game 1 vs Winston on Asa: I drew two Deep Dive in my opening hand and went full throttle. I played an early Deep Dive turn 2 or 3 and hit an Ikawah. Bad luck. I got my money back up and did another Deep Dive in a turn or two. No agendas. At this point, I hadn't interacted with Winston's board at all - he'd scored a Luminal and gotten two Wage Workers triggers in a turn and probably drew all his agendas into HQ. I was too poor to contest the Offworld Office (even against only two ICE with both my breakers) and he scored an Ikawah with double Seamless to end the game. I really wished I was playing control in this game.

Game 4 vs Cody on Barf Thule: I don't know how to play against this matchup, but I abandoned the Deep Dive plan and went slow, checking facedown remotes. I made the choice to steal a double-advanced Orbital Superiority after getting hit with Riot Suppression and took the 1 core damage from Thule (since I knew that he had Hypoxia in hand and I would be taking 1 core the next turn if I didn't steal), but he had a Distributed Tracing in hand as well, taking me to 2 core damage. He pulled a Gaslight for a End of the Line, and at that point, it was just a matter of time until he found a second Distributed Tracing and killed me. Stoneship Chart Room would have been great to have in this matchup.

Game 5 vs Eli on Ob: I didn't find a Spark of Inspiration in the first half of my deck. I did find Orca, which I discarded as I drew desperately. When I finally summoned my Lobisomem, I lost it to Stavka -> Ob a Sandstone -> Hafrún, and the game was definitely over. I also then made the misplay of Compiling into HQ with a facedown ICE to try to get my Lobi back - Eli didn't rez, and I wasted the Compile. Should have played Compile into the ETR Hafrun, which I did later, but I was so far behind at that point. Besides the misplay, I think this loss was mostly bad luck and a tough matchup - sometimes, this deck just won't draw Spark. Eli also scored an SDS Drone Deployment, but I didn't have any programs at the time...-_-

My corporation was a minor change to Council's Empress AgInfusion. Thanks to Henry (Wentagon) for running!
