CTZ_KICKRIP (3-1 BOST-on)

You already know what it is: Criminal shoved into Shaper.

I love, love, love this deck and it has enough distractions to keep me looking at the board and not thinking about Balatro combos. The ops are bonkers, the hardware pieces are kickflip enabling, the resources are all secretly blue, and the programs do the thing TM.

I kept wavering back and forth between Aniccam sicko mode and installer-thon 4000, which is how I ended up here. This is more installer-thon 4000 and it should have been more sicko mode, but we'll save that for the next tournament. All I'll say is that it has far more blue influence, which is the correct way to play Shaper.

If you are looking to tune this version, I'd say that you have to account for speed. While very cool and high ceiling, the Coalescence + Aesop's + Casts + Environmental Testing package is a tad too slow on average and suffers from non-optimal draw. Those are the things that drive me insane, but that's the price (cringe) of playing a green deck like this.

Too many people are sleeping on Burner. If you are playing green and don't at minimum have 2 copies (you should have three), then I really don't know what you are going for. That card says no to the corp and looks cool doing it. My top runner play of the day was:

• Click 4 of the previous turn: Install Cataloguer

• Click 1: Burner, sending back an agenda and Rashida

• Click 2: Trick Shot to steal and trash and run a remote trashing
• Click 3: Run R&D to use Cataloguer
• Click 4: Trick Shot to steal 2 agendas (only 1 was needed) for the win

Great tournament, great time, and so much more Netrunner travel for the year. Much love to everyone involved. Y'all make it happen.

The bost important news for y'all - I am no longer a free agent. Team Muntal Bost 4 lyfe and we're coming for the world. Couldn't ask for a better team and I am so glad to join the best United Nations for me.
