greyfield 3915

A pretty normal ETF mid-range glacier, bulked up by adding Midori for (principally) NEXT Gold-based surprise blowouts. The deck used to be The Foundry, until I realized (a) I never really wanted to use The Foundry's ability except to get more NEXT ice, and that's not a good enough reason to thin your deck; (b) I don't like The Twins; and (c) ETF is still incredible.

Important things to remember (about Midori):

  • You can't Midori the first piece of ice in the server unless she's rezzed before the runner starts the run. This is because Midori's effect triggers in phase 2.0, and the first time you can rez cards in the run is 2.1.

  • Midori triggers Engineering the Future, which is awesome. So sometimes, even if you have nothing better to swap in, switching an unrezzed ice for another unrezzed ice nets you a credit during the runner's turn.
