Ji Served in a Noisy Diner (1st Undefeated Terminal 7 SC)

Okay, the deck name was probably a bit cheesy unless you get your deck named Dumblefork or something-something-shop. In all honesty, I still just call this Noise Shop.

As a more or less avid Noise player, I've always wanted to explore different builds. I've tried a surplus of econ like Sure Gambles + Queen's Gambit + Liberated Accounts + Atman, and various others.... That is until being inspired by the silliness of TheBigBoy's ice destruction deck.

Clonechip is an amazing card, but I constantly felt that I could also spend 3 influences for something else equally viable while exploring deckbuilds. It may seem like Levy AR Lab Access is an overkill in a Noise deck, but having it in deck means that Faust could be used way more aggressive on breaking or trashing any ice. From play testing I've noticed that Levy AR Lab Access could also be used earlier just to quickly reset the used Deja Vu/D4v1d/key Viruses. The addition of one each Cutlery cards further justify the inclusion of Levy and the Same Old Thing.

Our Store Championship, hosted by Terminal7 had a turnout of 25 players (1 dropped later on), so we ended up with the newer tournament structure of 4 rounds of Swiss, and a cut to top 8.

The deck went 4-0 in swiss, and 2-0 in the eliminations. I will spare the details of the games, but the deck was pitched against Spark, NEH 24/7 Kill, IG Kill, HB Next Food Glacier in Swiss. In the eliminations it went against NEH Fastro with Team Sponsorships and the same HB Next Food Glacier.

The Noise deck may be slightly slower than Whizzard due to more pieces needed to support some econ. What Noise gains from the setup, is the constant disruption via your virus installs, as opposed to an aggressive Whizzard that denies asset econ and establish early R&D Medium lock.

Also who doesn't love Imps and Lampreys? ;)

Side note, the corp deck I used was a HB Food Glacier.

Noise + Cutlery = talking with your mouth full = "No Manners"

At least a loud Eater wasn't involved? ;)

Congrats on the 1st place! Very cool version of Noise, but I expected nothing less from you. Now I'm going to build it and use it against you. Maybe I can finally win a game...

Whats your opinion on 1x Clone Chip vs 1x Levy AR Lab Access - any thoughts on this?

@Joseki I think it would depend on your play style. I am a bit more aggressive on running, so I use the cutlery cards a bit more, and in turn discard cards enough to justify the Levy. Clone chip is still quite amazing to have, and arguably better against NBN.

I chose Levy because I both want to use the cutlery cards as well as it being the same influence as Clone chip.

If you cut two of the cutlery cards for anything else to try out, the clone chip is definitely better.
