England may be a small island, but it's also a breeding ground for space-time folds and non-euclidean geometry. One simply has to pass through a wardrobe, hop over a wall, head into the London Underground, or walk through bricks at the end of a train platform, and they may inadvertently find themselves in the middle of a vast and uncharted land.
In such a country, one can simultaneously be both thousands of kilometers away from London while also being in the middle of it.
'bout 600 miles, Great Britain is highly fractal in a way people from continental interiors find hard to grasp
Dunno, man. On my recent trip, I found the Underground entirely delightful ...
It's worth mentioning it takes less time to fly from Canada to England than it does to fly to the other side of Canada. Our perceptions are definitely, wonderfully, and intriguingly different.
Perhaps I can interest you in my meager selection of pins?
All the time travel and tears in reality have really destabilized the region.

Like, I'd often hear Japan referred to as a "small island nation" but Japan is like 50% bigger than the whole UK.
Yeah its not big (Great Britain is slightly smaller than Honshu), but anyone referring to Japan as a small island nation in the first place is a bit of a dolt.
On topic, I miss this game. That forum game was very unsatisfying, and I am sad that it might have been the last I'll ever play.

Looks good to me.
As someone who hate Katman with every fiber of his being, I rejoice.
As someone who wanted to make a Darwin deck work, I weep.
I'm actually thinking I might take a break from my PPVP Kate deck to play Noise for a while until I get my copies of the latest two datapacks. For some reason they haven't arrived in stores here in Australia yet, so I ended up just ordering them on amazon the other day.
Those Dedicated Response Team/100-remote decks might also be thrown in there? Or maybe that's too new a type

as of right now, there is no way for the corp to interact with them directly
I assumed he was talking about how purging datasucker tokens would mess with Atman usage.
What decks are those? Not seen them...

Basically, NEH with 3x DRT, 3x Encryption Protocol, and a shit load of asset economy and recursion. Play them faster than they can break them. DRT is amazing denial when they're 5 to trash, and you can interns them back in.
What I'm seeing here is a lot of support for Darwin. Get out Grimoire, put three Progenitors out with Hiveminds on them, and then play Darwin. Darwin is now STR 6, and if the corp purges, STR 3 plus the one you get to add for free. Now, getting three copies each of two cards is pretty impossible, but even getting two Progenitors to protect a Hivemind and Darwin means that you're at worst STR 3 when your turn starts. Get DAVID for STR5+ and a single Incubator for those pesky STR 4s, and you're in business.
The deck seems slow at first, but all you need is Darwin and a Cyberfeeder to get started. If they purge early game, that's just more time for you to set up. By the time late game comes, you should have your Hiveminds and Festers ready for action.
edit: Hivemind is unique, it seems.
edit 2: Virus Breeding Ground is also pretty neat, and it's immune to purging virus counters. One click per counter is pretty nasty, but it might be better than Incubator.
that deck seems....weird
like I can see it running out of gas in lategame when it's got a ton of money but no way to leverage it into a win
If the runner accesses a Snare! or TGTBT, you can rez DRTs which will actually fire. It's essentially a shell-game deck that scores in undefended remotes and tries to tag the runner.
I honestly couldn't tell you if it's remotely competitive or not. If I was going to mention it to new players, I'd notate it under a 'Shell Game' archeytpe.
and interns might be overkill, 3 of them definitely is
In hindsight, that isn't really a huge deck type yet, I don't think I saw anyone play it at Worlds, so probably not worth including.
I was indeed referring to the practice of Atman at 4 and using datasuckers to keep grims/archers/inuzumas low.
Huh, cool.
I've never seen or played it. I imagine its fun though. I'm not sure its common enough to include in the archetypes bit but I'm glad you pointed it out.

Amazing art, really cool ability.
Also the new Shaper console is going STRAIGHT into my PPVP Kate deck. Wooooowww
Is it wrong that whenever I look at Game Day, I immediately think PACKERS WON THE SUPERBOWL! WOO! from MST3K?

When I look at it I see someone playing it with 3 Origami installed.
Just... Wow.

Doesn't it say 'in' the server, meaning only assets and upgrades rather than ice?
Comet seems pretty nuts in a PPVP Kate deck.
Problem is that it's hardware so it is likely to end up in the heap from the oracle...hm.
I just realised that her ability lets you install a second card when using things like Clone Chip or SMC. That's super interesting!
