S.O.L.-Toys and Things Danvers, MA 1st Place

Bakashinobi 223

This was my corp deck that helps bring me to 8th seed in the round of 8 for a 26 person tournament at Toys and Things Danvers, MA and from 8th seed I went to take 1st place overall.

Astro chain is 1 way to win, landing a big midseasons opens up 3 more: killing the runner, psychobeale (13 advancement tokens+tags are needed to go from 0 to win), or, if the runner doesn't have a shrike or a Faire out, information overload all but guarantees blowing up their rig (and if it doesn't it's still super taxing expensive).

Targeted marketing is to turn on news hounds and siphon protection or whatever threat would make things the worst for you (parasite, wlydside, faust, etc.).

The decks is money hungry, so if there's nothing you must do that turn, melagne for money. High tag midseasons are costly, information overload isn't cheap, and psychobeale is also very pricey.

When the runner is tagged enough, they'll often be fine taking more tags to save money. Use these tags and Lily Lockwell to pull up whatever operation would help you the most at the moment. Don't be afraid to pull up a psychographics to score out an agenda if you're flooded and need to get rid of some.

All in all, it's a fun deck that I thought would be janky because of the midseason information overload combo, but the psychobeale and Lily Lockwell tutoring elevate it to something much more stable and reliable.

Not tier 1 because the low amount of ETR ice means that you're probably giving up accesses early on, but so far it's a solid tier 2 deck. I think with more refinement, I'll probably be able to improve the early game.
