Quetzal's Dinner Party

Pikeman 289

Just something I'm in the process of working on. Been mulling around for ideas on how to play the utensils even more than I already am, perhaps with Deja Vu? Also, I think it really needs Archives Interface to take care of the Team Sponsorship nonsense. Let me know what you think below.

Déjà Vu is always good to get the sweet Cards out again.

But depending on your Meta you may not want an AI-Braker to be your only Breaker. A Turing could lock you simply out or a Swordsman eats your Eater. And a Wraparound makes you poor.

Deck looks pretty tidy but I think swordsman, architect, and turing would cause problems and I would suggest including some answers such as mimic, parasite and david. I'd probably remove a scrubber and the data foldings to free up some space

I've always liked the cutlery, but I feel it's odd if not paired with Parasite + Datasucker, because it feels like you're half committed to the ICE destruction plan.

Also, if Eater is your only breaker, why do you have e3 Feedback Implants; seeing as how they both cost the same to break subsequent subroutines?

Also, if there was ever a time to use paintbrush, it is Querzal E3 cutlery

@haywire - All very good points, but finding a solution to all three is challenging to say the least. Maybe corroder + paintbrush, and drop the data foldings?

@DGB123 - Yeah, I thought about parasite, but it's so slow. Then again, I suppose it's a lot better to have a slow answer than no answer in some cases.

@UminWolf - e3 is for Quetzal's ability only.

The Data Foldings are indeed a little supoptimal, because when you have Eater, Medium and Nerve agent out, they get you nothing anymore. Dropping them for Corroder and Paintbrush is not a bad Idea, but i don't know if your economy is sufficient then.

For the Parasite Idea a Datasucker would be nice. Maybe drop one of the Nerve Agent and Medium for that.

@Pikeman: So you're using 6 influence and 3 cards slots to break barriers so you can access cards since Eater will keep you out?

So Enigma, Quandary, and Guard just do all the work against you then. If your response is, "that's why I have Forked and Spooned." Then I would say that you don't need Knifed. If your argument for Knifed is ICE destruction, then you really need to fit in Parasite and Datasucker.

I just think 6 influence is a lot to handle only barriers. I also think you should either commit to ICE destruction, or drop some of the cutlery for other cards and use them on only problematic ICE.
