Please no NAC (12th at SU Worlds)

This is a Startup list which funnily enough is also legal to play in Standard. As I was playing Hoshiko in the main event and I had plenty of experience with her on Jnet (where this deck is currently like 24 - 3), it made sense to bring this and make life easy on myself.

I only played 3 games with her on the day, as the top cut math was too stressful and I decided to ID for a top 16 position. Two of the matches were PE, which is just horribly one-sided for Hoshiko. I lost a game vs Pravdivost but only because I forgot about an agenda in archives that I could have gone in to steal for ages. I did manage to dodge PD, which unfortunately is a rough match-up due to NAC.

The Avgustina/Cookbook package is very underrated and I wouldn't drop it. The regular sabotages are great value plays, as this deck often drops a virus every turn. And Cookbook is fantastic with Fermenter and Imp, and also makes it so you can Chisel a Gold Farmer on the first run. Obviously it has Boat and between that, Botulus and the ice destruction, you will rarely need real breakers. The Buffer Drive is PE tech or "any card in my heap I will Hoshiko draw next turn". This slot is flexible though.

Thanks to all my opponents for the great games and NSG for organising a fantastic Worlds!
