Obokata on the list with Bio-Ethics Association is a pretty good thing, too. Still has a place in Tempo builds but is less crushingly oppressive in Prison builds, especially without Film Critic. Aesop's/Opus etcetera seem like strong moves to get out in front of the Shaper Ascendancy, who were rubbing their hands with glee after Rotation/Core2. Runner econ in general just got gutted, so it can't all be in Green. Given Restricted lists are generally to break up combos, I don't really get what single like Gang Sign or Hunter-Seeker achieve. Leemaw and Skorp lists just shrug and take them anyway, if only slightly less flexible without things like Strike or GFI. Corp gets to keep jamming Mass Comm or whatever nonsense and hope for no agenda flood. Pity the Criminal players, who were consoling themselves with "Well at least we still have all this money..." before this landed.

EmpStrike getting put there with Film Critic makes me happy, though. quote:Straight-up banning Bloo Moose was probably correct if that leak is legit, though. Card is straight busted in half. Edit: after discussing the list with some local players, the H-S and gang sign restrictions make a ton of sense if you're really trying to prevent these strategies from having access to GFI and FC/Strike, respectively. fomo sacer fucked around with this message at 14:27 on Sep 20, 2017 |

My guess about Gang Sign is that they want to break it being paired with Magnum Opus in Leela, so that you have to be a bit more proactive about maintaining bank to lock the corp out. I also suspect Mopus is on the list less as a result of some particular nasty combo as much as control decks just mashing it while yawning at the corp being unable to do anything being considered NPE.

Welp, no more Jinteki Prison for me. At least I've been working on a Skorp list that... only needs a GFI replacement it looks like, and with hopefully fewer EStrikes and/or less recursion around might have actually gotten a bump in power. My Shaper list, meanwhile, is going to have to make some hard choices. Someone please remind me why I decided that this would be the year I go to Worlds?

Part of me is okay with stuff being OP and then banned, because then it gives strong card options for players that aren’t very good at the game to get a leg up when playing casually with friends, but then doesn’t negatively impact the competitive / serious players.

Fisk-Gang Sign Leela is still hilarious as you watch corps flood and kill the whampoa reclaimations. Also aumakua is hilariously strong

Huh I'm surprised at Salvaged Vanadis Armory being straight-up banned. I guess because if you pop it after a Boom it could insta-win you the game? Is there some super strong combo that uses it that I'm not familiar with? It doesn't have any reviews on netrunnerdb so it doesn't seem like it's particularly popular.

It was the focus of some gross mill decks because of how easily Anarchs can damage themselves. Never managed to see any in the wild before the ban hit, thankfully.

I preferred the (weaker) version that involved hitting Tri Maf Contacts with Independent Thinking purely because I loved the thematic image of hitting the Mafia with a sledgehammer then blaming the Corp for it. Psyched for the new meta though.

I sincerely doubt it. I know a guy who played an Apocalypse Nasir deck that used Bookmark to store its combo pieces and load up fuel for Faust. But that is a very different beast from a no-run mill deck.

I guess the only positive for that mill deck is that it never won anything. Until Rotation, Andy has a better match up with every corp.

I'm playing in my first Netrunner tournament in a few weeks! It's an event for charity where players bid for pairs of IDs. I've ended up with Blue Sun/Quetzal. I'm a relatively inexperienced player, I'm excited to play in this tournament and just mainly hoping not to get completely hosed. Any tips for strategies/builds for my IDs?
