Water Sports (Worlds 2024 CoS)

For a while I seriously iterated on Student Council as a potential candidate to take to Worlds. HB was obviously strong and that deck felt like a good example of it. Some games against AlPi, one of the best Swift Lat players around, convinced me that the deck needed changing on a fundamental level, no matter how much I could try and optimize for the given gameplan. Amani can be near-useless against Lat and there had to be better influence spends.

Because the previous deck seemed to win handily whenever it had a Cohort Guidance Program ticking consistently, I decided to just up the count to 3 and see what happens. Filling the rest of the influence was obvious, given that you were generating immense amounts of Gamer Girl Moon Pool Water.

Ultimately DeeR talked me out of this deck for the main event, which led to a very long search for the Corp that couldn't be dived - a story for another writeup. However, with Paillu and JuniperTheory we decided we would bring an all-pool trio of Corps, so my pick for that was obvious. Deck went well and I had a lot of fun with it. You may have it too :3

I talk people out of everything. I swear one day someone is going to have a conversation with me about decklists, we talk for a few hours, and the next day they tell me "I decided to drop from the tournament".
