Child: can we play Noise? Mom: we have Noise at home.

GODBUTFORREAL 18

I'd like to start this by saying this deck is kind of weird. Playing virus tribal without a lot of the old virus support is questionable. Despite this, we have sabotage now so honestly if you think about it now is the time to build a virus archives synergy more than ever. The funny thing about this deck though is that Mavirus exists And really messes up a lot of what I'm trying to do, but on the contrary, I come bearing counterplay. This is in the card Heliamphora Which allows me to diffuse the bomb that is a Mavirus from archives. The deck also includes the card Nga which if the Corp doesn't ice archives early on can, with Alice's ability Put on some really solid early Game HQ pressure through running archives. Despite the Deck's positive traits, it's time to talk about some of the negative ones.

It's poor sometimes like semi-consistently credit-screwed. Obviously, this will happen to any deck on occasion The money situation isn't that great. This is mostly because a lot of it's late-game finances Or through cost reduction rather than credit generation. A lot of its important components are really expensive. Now I realize I'm probably exaggerating how bad it is but it isn't a non-issue.

Another problem is that sometimes struggles in getting into remote servers. Now this doesn't really matter because often the HQ disruption is sometimes enough to slow the corp down for you to still win, but often I'll get to the Late game and find these remotes untouchable. Now the deck is running a decent amount of Trojans so under-protected agendas can be taken, but if you don't get your turtle out early it can lead to you feeling really locked out.

Now you just heard me talk about all of its problems but despite all of them I think it's still a very good and fun deck and I used it to place 11th out of 23 in a district championship. This isn't a very good placement but I'm not a very good player and I think it was more of a skill issue if anything.
