Riga Regionals 2014 #2 Romas (runner)

Tomorrow i will post how this deck went in swiss and d-elimination, and ill write some my thoughts about my card choises and possible changes in future. Feel free to comment

Really interesting deck, and great finish! I like the 1 of sneakdoor and ninja. Couple questions: How useful were the 2 DLRs? With 2 special orders and only 1 fracter and decoder, did you ever hit consistency issues? And was gordian blade worth the influence and install cost over Zu?

• And was gordian blade worth the influence and install cost over Zu?

  A: Zu is expensive to break, meta is heavy with Lotus Field and other code gates, so Goardian show his effiency starting with 2nd code gate you break, pure math for me. And if i taking just one copy of each breaker i wanted to take best of them possible.

• How useful were the 2 DLRs?

  I found them like nice addition to the deck, its not based on that but just bonus - if i run AS and corp dont run any Tag punishment i drill R&D with it) or Masanori is in play, and corp ETR me i use that for advantage.

With only 2 viruses in the deck, how useful is Déjà Vu for you compared to Clone Chip?

I agree, this could be good choise, and i thinking about that also, you should try that ;) I choosed Déjà Vu to give recursion more variaty - for all games i recured trashed Icebreakers, both Parasite 's , or Account Siphon and sometimes Data Leak Reversal . But next time i will go with clone chip)

In swiss of 22 deck come at Top4, win 4 times - 2 NEH, ETF and PE, lose once to NEH.

In d-elimination 1st play with Silhouette was just in lower bracket, and started with winning NEH, next very tricky PE and came back to final to play against NEH (which i won once in swiss already before), but this time his train already arrived and gone without me :D

How useful was her ability? The main benefit here seems to be the 40 card deck, but I am wondering if Andy might just be better?

Her ability was the reason why i took her over Andy, i didnt wasted any run on traps or no rezzed PADS, and spended emediatly runs on SanSan to trash them ASAP.

Also i didnt loose any of my installed programms, cause i was able to see where Roto, Grim or Ichi is hidding :)

in my PE/RP/NEH heavy meta, my deck was good choise

Yeah, your runner had no problems with dealing against my heavy trapped and low ice Jinteki:PE >:)

@eXister hey man - I hope you're well! I used this deck to play my friend at the weekend in a few casual games and it's awesome! I beat his HB glacier deck and also a trap / kill Jinteki deck as well. I found that as long as I got running as quickly as possible I was able to kill his economy and just keep running HQ / R&D until I pulled out the agenda cards I wanted.

To be fair, his Jinteki deck was badly built and lacking any economy and I'm sure he's going to rectify that but still... This is a really fun deck to pilot and I'm going to keep using it / maybe make a few tweaks of my own.

I'm thinking on heading to a local Netrunner pub night and I'll defo be playing this deck - it gives me great confidence. Thank you!
