This is a Replicating Perfection deck that represents very little real innovation. I chose to play Replicating Perfection because it was the most natural deck to put Cerebral Static, Swordsman, and Caprice Nisei into. Caprice is standard-issue in Replicating Perfection; she's great because she's a fantastic card and also a de facto hate card for Keyhole/Eater. I also played Wraparound because, hey, it costs 6 to Eater it.
Chronos Project did zero work all day. It's basically a blank agenda when the runner steals it; it's very hard to score exactly 7 with it. Unfortunately, the same applies when you score it. It's basically a way to hose MaxX and some shaper decks, and I never got to score it under those circumstances.
Crisium Grid was nice to have. It doesn't shut any strategies down but it can be a nice way to prevent the runner from creating major tempo swings. Nonbo with Ash.
I don't think this is the best build of RP to handle MaxX or the current metagame. We basically figured the last few cards out in the car on the way to the store. It worked, clearly, but it felt like a hodgepodge a lot of the time.
This deck went 2-1-1 (two wins, one loss, one timed draw) in Swiss and 2-0 in elims at the Unique Gifts and Games store championship

MaxX and Noise are my biggest concerns going into SCs over here. Hence I'm thinking that 3x Cerebral Static might be the way to go. Playing one first turn against Noise would be beautiful. Questions abound over it's utility for all match-ups remain though, especially as Andy is still so common.
