Modern Oscars

AlPi 1150

If you haven't heard of 'The Oscars' in netrunner I highly recommend reading this post: The Oscars by zbauermeister

This deck wants to kill the runner with Touch-ups + Measured Response/Complete Image or Sting! score.

But the best way to win is by acting.

Act one - Preparation: You need a Touch-ups + Complete Image in hand and a Regenesis on the board.

Act two - The Fumble: You trigger AU Co or Cohort, ditching enough points in archives to activate Complete Image (or Measured Response). Then you score the Regenesis, you won't get any extra points because of the Regenesis text. Pick up Regenesis and visually read it again. Say "dammit, I fucked it up".

Act Three - The Prestige: If the runner offers to take back the turn, deny it! You are ashamed but still have pride, dammit! The runner will run archives on their turn, checking all the conditions for you to play Complete Image. If they can't win that turn, you hit them with your kill combo!

I did this Oscars play by accident in round 5 Americas Online Megacity Championship.

This deck went undefeated in this tournament; it's a very good deck that does not require you to act. Shout out to FREDPI and ayyyliens from my local meta for showing me the Touch-ups Complete Image tech!

Was a great game AlPi, GGs!

Happy I was part of the reimagining of a legend, even if on the losing side :D.
