Wizards First Rule: "People are stupid"

That quote has nothing to do with this deck, but I've put in in anyway. I suppose this deck did beat a Whizzard on the day, so that could be construed as a link.

Some people have asked for the Argus deck I took to the UK Intercity in Newcastle. This is it.

You may recognise it from Seamus's deck posted earlier in the year. That is because I stole the idea from him.

(It's alright, we had a chat at the event and he's totally cool with it :D)

So I picked this idea up earlier this year, and played non-stop Argus up to mid-October. The deck went through 5 iterations with only minor tweaks to keep up with the meta, and the core has remained the same.

However, this one focuses far less on the kill, and more on the rush strategy. Hence only two scorched (not at all because I only own 1 core set!)

The Agenda suite is of course chosen to make you money, and the ICE suite is all hard gearcheck ETR's with a few notable exceptions.

With the advent of Paperclip, a Jackson bit the dust to bring in a Blacklist, which performs admirably when stuck behind an ice wall.

The rest I would like to say is self-explanatory, in that you want to be trying to score an agenda, behind a piece of ICE they can't break, as quickly as possible.

I'd be happy to play this in any competitive scene, but that might be just me.

This went 4-1 at intercity, losing to an Apex (turns out Endless Hunger is really good when all your ICE says "End the run"! Who knew!) but beating out Adam, Kit, Whizz and Sunny.

To be honest writing down those Runner names makes me reconsider how impressive the winstreak was.

Ah well.

Argus everybody - still got it.
