[Android: Netrunner] Creating and Controlling since 2012

I love this game.
@Anzekay Jesse and I have been hanging out all weekend. I'm chatting to him about snow at the moment
Otherwise, I've basically decided to avoid all spoilers that aren't one of FFG's own posts. Even those are usually looking further ahead than I care about, but at least the information is both reliable and restrained. It's actively killing my interest in the game seeing so much information leak.
Perhaps I can interest you in my meager selection of pins?
Information might want to be free but I would like it to maybe wait a bit.
Thanks bro, really appreciated. I've had an amazing experience at Worlds and have continued to be amazed at how nice the Netrunner community is. Its one of the key things that makes the game for me.
HBFA and Kate multi access. He runs a podcast called The Winning Agenda that's worth checking out I hear.
Yeah I've listened to an episode or two before. It's good fun, though the sound quality was a bit off the last time I listened in. I have such a big list of podcasts these days, though, that I don't really find the time for it. T7 is still my main ANR podcast.
I was running an Andy deck geared to dealing with NEH, and an NEH flatline deck.
In the Friday side tournament I ran my HB Punitive deck (+Andy) and went undefeated.
But I also get wanting to be surprised by stuff.
I was really tempted, especially after how well it did in the 84 player tournament on Friday.
I believe it is definitely a viable deck archetype.
That's what the Eli 1.0s are for!
That NEH deck was a thing to see in practice. If you missed the completely balls-out play in Cerb's Top 12 round, you missed a thing of beauty. A first-turn naked install of NAPD, which was never ran and sat there, LITERALLY the entire game until the very end when Cerb had the choice: Triple-advance and Astro token it for the win, or Triple-scorch out of hand. He wisely chose both. It was the second time I personally saw him Triple-scorch, and likely not the only two he had the chance to fire.
Seeing Cerb play in person was a thing of beauty, and I'm sorry more people couldn't see it. I'm glad I never had to play him.
CURRENTLY PLAYING:

Information does not want to be free; it wants to be liberated and expensive.

COME FORTH, AMATERASU! - Switch Friend Code SW-5465-2458-5696 - Twitch
I was watching that on stream, it was beautiful. He couldn't have astro-ed it out though, bad pub would have made the napd 5 advancements. Every other NEH deck I saw online wasn't scorched/psycho either, they were the vanilla 3 biotic fast advance style. Incredibly close games the whole top 16!
Perhaps, but NEH scorch is insane in the current meta since people just blind Legwork and Maker's Eyes all the time to try and steal Astro #1. "Oh, Legwork, you say? Meet my friend Snare and his buddies Tag and Scorch."
click four the runner ran R&D with 8 credits, a corroder, and medium with four counters
against a curtain wall
timmy had like 25 credits and a project atlas on the table
and he DIDN'T REZ THE CURTAIN WALL
worst play I've ever seen, how the dick did he even make it past the cut
I don't think there's any way that decision makes any sense at all
I think he must have been so tired that he couldn't even realize that curtain wall would have stopped the runner cold
The dumb play was putting ice in front of the curtain wall, really.
There was a taurus in front of the curtain wall, probably trying to hedge against an inside job. The math worked out such that the runner would not be able to get through with an inside job, but he completely missed the part where a regular run would be successful. Straight misplay after a ton of games, which is sad, that deck was pretty great.
are you sure? I was pretty certain he put the curtain wall in front
e: alright I went and reviewed it and yup, he put a Taurus in front of the curtain wall for no reason
still insane!
I was really unimpressed with the finals games too, Dan faced a bunch of traps with things like Femme and Mimic in his hand and all the money he would ever need, then in their second game Minh trashed a sneakdoor with login protocols and john masanori in play while archives had nothing but bako, and he did this immediately after dan put a third ice on HQ
really unimpressed with all the games I've watched after the cut
except that one where Cerberus nuked that guy after leaving an NAPD on the board
there was some confusion on the stream apparently over how it happened, but I'm pretty sure he gave Cerb a data raven token
Might be thinking of a different game? I do remember there being one with a taurus in front of a curtain wall, though.
But I think the Team Covenant ones are more consistent, so I may just get some of them. They'll go well with my nice tournament-won Virus tokens, too.
He ran last click through the Raven.
While there were definitely misplays in the games you are not taking into account that most people had played around 30 individual games of competitive Netrunner by the time those games happened. Fatigue is a factor.
Didn't even notice they were there.
Swiss (7 rounds) 1 day then top-16 double-elims the next day. There was a winter kit tournament the day before as well...so lots of Netrunner over three days.

team covenant will probably have it all edited and up on youtube at some point
not sure what the turnaround on that is, maybe later this week?
I'm fine with what Snow-Jax does, I just hate that the new thing they do is put two thirds of the next cycle's cards into the draft packs so we get this giant infodump and then nothing for six months
Last year they started putting them up right at the end of November
