The TagMe Maxx Deck the FFG Stream Commentators were talking

They kept talking about wanting to see my deck, I DELIVER IT. (Gotta get these internet points while the getting's good >_>)

This took 38th at Worlds, so make of that what you will in terms of competitiveness. It's a powerful combo deck with a lot of obviously vulnerabilities (CVS, Best Defense, etc) that eventually builds up to accessing enough of R&D to all but guarantee the win.

I've been on Countersurveillance Anarch since Crimson Dust dropped. Obviously the power level is much lower without Account Siphon, but in general things are weaker now, so it... mostly works out?

Most choices are pretty obvious. Get tags with God of War (preferably multiples), then eventually Mars for Martians, install Countersurveillance, install Dean Lister, see a ton of cards off R&D. Stimhack for contesting remote, Jarogniew Mercs to not die, Dummy Box for Best Defense. Archives Interface was a tech choice that proooobably should be something else, but I wanted hardware to discard to protect Obelus with Dummy Box.

Round 1: Played vs. Mushin Palana, which is overall a very swingy matchup. Basically if you can get and keep Obelus you have the handsize to not care about whether their advanced cards are traps or not, because damage is not a problem. He managed to get my Obelus and I took four brain damage, didn't find another Obelus after the Levy, and he eventually managed to fork me into "this might be Ronin and death, or double Neural and death," I guessed wrong, died.

Round 2 vs. Titan: He scored an Atlas, things looked grim, but a desperate countersurveillance for a meager four cards managed to see both of the other two Atlases. He was stuck, and eventually I just accessed all of R&D.

Round 3 vs. Tennin: This was a spicy Tennin deck, with Consulting Visit for Boom! I failed to play around it hard enough, and perished.

Round 4 vs. SYNC: If you're ever playing against God of War, I tell you now and I tell you truly, rezzing IP Block is the worst thing you can do. It gave me Tag Magnum Opus, and so I accelerated enough to outrace him pretty easily. He put a Resistor on R&D, but I got my handsize higher than my tag count and Dean Lister'ed over it.

Round 5 vs. PE: In a tragic twist, I had to face my KoS teammate Orbital_Tangent in a duel where only one of us could be live afterwards. I got my handsize up to enough where I didn't really need to fear Data Loop, but he purged a few times which meant I couldn't get through Komainu without getting annihilated. Eventually with a second God of War out, I can get through to R&D and hold on to 8 cards. I access the top ALL OF R&D, and win.

Round 6 vs. CI: I am a monster and declined the ID with netjogging (one of the nicest people in Netrunner) because I wanted to have a better chance of making top 16. He was on Brain Rewiring/Show of Force combo (as was I). My outs in this matchup are basically delay with SMC until I can get my handsize high enough that it starts being a problem to Brain Rewire me, or stick a Jarogniew Mercs. I was on a slow start, and probably should have just installed Mercs, cleared the tag, and gone for single accesses using God of War (clearing the tag after), but the glacial pace of that sounded worse in my head at the time. He pretty rapidly rewired my brain, but this ended up putting us split anyway and took me to Day 2.

Day 2: Round 7 vs. Skorpios: He was on Skorpios with 3 Best Defense, probably my worst matchup.... It didn't work out well. Round 8: Ironically a replay of the match I played in icebreaker. Titan is a bad matchup right up until you steal an Atlas and they can't fast advance out.
