Deck valid after Sixth Rotation |
I can guarantee you that no one from Bost will be playing this again!
This deck was simply a quickly slapped together rotated BlitzShiko, with no testing.
- Credit to @maninthemoon for making them swaps.
I went into APAC with this list, and consequently lost my first three rounds on this deck in rather fun ways:
CyberStein
on Ag [Replay]Dragons1rule
on Prav [Replay]wiley
on Ob [Replay]At that point, the Bost members and I had already recognized that APAC was going to run until 6am our time.
I really didn't want to play another game on Hosh, and had very little confidence in her. So, I decided to 241 my 4th round, jokingly saying I'd drop out of APAC if I rolled Hosh. I rolled Outfit, and while it was a girder game vs Lat I came out victorious going into the lunch break at 1am.
During the break we discussed as a team if it made sense to play our matches normally, or call for 241's. I joked with @ThatsNoMun that I could just go for the 1/8 of rolling Outfit for all the rest of my games in swiss.
I ultimately decided that I would go for a 241 again, as if I rolled Outfit I had high confidence I could pull out a W, and if I rolled Hosh I'd hopefully have enough time playing a 241 that I might actually be able to think out the lines to win at 2am+ in the morning.

and we both were figuring out the math if we wanted to ID, 241 or play it.

playing at 5am on the west coast as well. enkoder
's youtube video for his perspective are both linked there as well!So, I ended day one of swiss with 0 wins on Hosh, and not feeling great about the cut lol, as even if I rolled Outfit as many times as possible through the cut I was required to win 1x game on this Hosh if I wanted to win APAC.
Props to @xFWx FIREBIRD (aka FireRL) for giving me 2x prep games on Hosh the day of the cut, particularly against "anything yellow" as I put it lol.
Now it was time for Hosh to clutch!

spin it back if desired. With the 1x Regenesis scored my plan was to pressure R&D until I stole a 5/3, and then go clear out archives for another 5/3 which I expected sebastiank
would have waiting there as a combo kill/Regenesis fork. I played for this line and it eventually paid off with a W.MrStyx
on Epiphany [Replay] [Streamed]Jia
on R+ [Replay]Jia
scored 3x AR-Enhanced Security's, which is not a fun time vs R+. Jia
's turn they had no way of scoring out as the only agendas that were left were 3x Bellona + 2x Freedom of Information.Jia
could get a score out. I had 1x Bahia Bands which allowed me to trash the Lady Liberty + get one more card trashed since I could use the Bahia Bands to run other server + clear a tag, still leaving myself with 0 tags at the end of the turn.Jia
on Tāo: This Hosh deck might have been terrible in swiss, but it clutched up in the cut once I had open deck lists, and praise for the RNG gods giving me the 1/16 to roll Outfit in swiss once I decided to start 241'ing :)
