Selfish Soul (3-0 Cambridge Regional)

Still on my Virtuoso wagon, still having fun.

Went 3-0 at the Cambridge Regionals, winning against Sportsmetal, Fast Advance Ob and Core Damage Asa. Just let down by my terrible corp play in the tournament

Briefly, the general gameplan is to be as aggressive early game as possible before transitioning into a more control style later. You really want Virtuoso down early - it's our main pressure tool and forces the Corp player to have to ice up all centrals. 4 credits may seem like a lot, but that's why we're playing cards like Carpe Diem, Casts and Liberated. Privileged Access is here to allow us to recur econ assets and programs in the later game, as well as allowing us to run archives without accessing cards in certain matchups (and yes - if archives is your mark then you still get to trigger Virtuoso after the run ends). Don't be afraid to spend a whole turn clicking Liberated: it's not so bad if you've got Casts or Earthrise ticking.

Just want to say thanks to everyone I played against at Cambridge and to all the organisers for a fun and chill day. Thanks to everyone in EA Sports - you continue to be an amazing bunch of supportive people.
