I have been playing Titan for a I have been playing Titan for a couple of months now but it has always been a bit unreliable. I noticed it was mostly the High-Risk Investment which I would never score but when stolen would usually cost me the game.

After Data&Destiny finally arrived I was able to swap them out for the amazing Global Food Initiative which made the deck so much more stable.

Last week I piloted this deck with a slightly changed Haley Siphon Deck (Based on the fun http://netrunnerdb.com/en/decklist/24339/barely-legal-top-16-us-nationals-) at the player organized 38 player Underdog Tournament in Madrid)

All in all Titan went 7-1 while Haley only went 5-3 which was enough to take me to first place.

In order it won against DLR Valencia (Kill), Whizzard (Points), PP Kate (Points), PP Kate (Kill), DLR Valencia (Kill), DLR Valencia (Points) and PP Kate (Kill) in the finals.The single loss was to a DLR MaXX from one of my main training partners.

A more detailed tourney report can be found on the Spanish Netrunner forums. The report is in English while everything else is in Spanish. Tourney Report

I find that the deck is really fun to play with lots of ways to win.

Some card choices:

Standard Agenda suite with GFI and The Future is Now as another Atlas.

1x Mark Yale was usually enough. It would usually at least be a Weyland Sweeps Week but many times it would gain more and can be used as a remote bait.

1x Power Shutdown is used to kill SMCs and Clone Chips

1x Snatch and Grab was another way to threaten a tag but was mostly used to punish money cards like Kati or Professional Contacts

For ice I just tried to choose the most taxing Ice suite that was still affordable to rez. In general most of the Ice is weak to parasite but I was expecting fewer parasites due to more people playing DLR. Caduceus and Assassin both did good work in different ways.

Shadow is still a card I am undecided on. Most of the time it was a 2 credit tax but I like it as one if the few punishing early game Weyland ice.

Sounds like you fought through nothing but tier 1 runners; well done. Interesting to see double meru. Why not a second ice wall or third spiderweb?

@moistloaf I like the second over Meru Mati over the Ice Wall because it is a better tax on HQ which with a lot of siphons in the Meta can be very important. If I need it as a hard ETR on a remote or R&D it only costs 1 more than Ice Wall for the same tax. The only thing Ice Wall has for it is that it advancable but that is something I only use very rarely.

Meru Mati taxes exactly the same amount against Corrodor on HQ as Spiderweb but costs 2 less to rez. Spiderweb is better against Faust and Lady but I already had two so that was usually enough against those matchups.

I guess in the the end you could swap them around but I like a mix of ice for different situations and one of my favorite HQ servers was the two Meru Mati stacked up each other.

I played almost this exact same deck in a smallish team tournament this past weekend and it did really well. I was agonizing over which Weyland deck to bring and I threw this together the morning of the tournament and went in untested. It went 4-1 with my only loss being against Noise that managed to mill all my Jacksons, 2 Hostiles, and an Atlas. Anyway, rushed out in my first game, fast advanced in my second. Killed in my third and fifth games. All of them were over in under 10 minutes.

My only changes were -1 Oaktown +1 NAPD Contract, -1 Archer +1 Hunter and -1 Power Shutdown +Mark Yale (this is the only change I wish I didn't make). Would love to find room for a Public Support or two, but slots are tight. So much potential here. I would kill for another 3/2 in Weyland.
