Anachron 229

This is the corporation deck I used to win the Chelmsford, MA store championship at 3 Trolls Games. 16 players were in attendance. My runner was a relatively standard Sifr Whizzard. Both decks went undefeated through swiss and the cut. My only loss on the day was in the finals where I got savagely clot-locked by Kate. Overall this deck went 5-1 (last round of swiss was an ID).

The deck was teched against what I thought would be the predominant runner plans coming out of Quorum. Rushing behind the feigned threat of meat damage can put you in a quick winning situation. The deck also seeks to make Sifr as irrelevant as possible through the ice selection.

I was worried about playing such weak ice in Aaron Marron's world, so I over-teched for the siphon matchup.

The deck is pretty high variance and has a really hard time with clot lock decks.

Happy to answer any questions folks might have about the deck!

This looks extremely similar to a Titan deck I'm running, only you're updated for Martial Law. Any changes for Quorum?

Also, what are your thoughts on SanSan City Grid vs Biotic Labor? Perhaps Friends in High Places can be used more successfully than Archived Memories in the deck if you have SSCG?

@CrushU This was the Quorum build! I did consider SSCG over Biotic because of Friends, and that could definitely be a successful deck. I ended up going with Biotic because it's less interactive. There's just so much Whizzard right now, I didn't want my FA to feed right into his gameplan.

I did something very similar except I played two SSCG's and one Biotic. I like your version better as I found myself often using the Atlas token to get the Biotic more often than rezzing the SSCG's. I like your point about Whizzard though. I considered it a tax on the runner but it's not that much of a tax against him.

I really liked playing my deck. I think Mausolus is a very taxing ICE that slows down runners quite a bit. However, I did find that I usually either won by turn 6-10 or I lost. What's been your experience? Also, do you ever advance the Mausolus?

@BizTheDadThe deck wins or loses very fast; there's no late-game play or comeback factor. Often the entire game is decided on whether or not I can successfully rush that first agenda.

Mausolus seems a little weaker now that Aaron Marron is catching on. I haven't ever advanced it with this deck, but I would consider it in some matchups (criminal) if they start disrespecting it. I think Veritas might be worth a look in that slot, or maybe a 1x Macrophage.
