Tags Matter I swear [1st @ Naarm Startup CO]

Never written one of these before so here we go. Started playing in October, played all the factions that I could in that time in startup only to get a basic grasp of the goals of each one, R+ stuck out as one of my favourites. First time playing with more than a 2 person meetup IRL, but was really good to expand the people I know in Netrunner.

Chose an asset spamming deck as I feel Arissana is just the best Runner in Startup and the format doesnt have good ways to deal with assets (stay away Loup) so first 2 turns u just want to go 6 wide and they always challenge 2-4 of the cards, so our influence went to some of the more costly trashables and front company was to force them to waste clicks on centrals.

Front company was installed and trashed turn 1 every time I saw it so I have 0 clue on if its good or not, Wage workers is very good, public trail into predictive into retribution into jam felt like an epic turn that occured TOO many times. Piranhas was the worst ICE, definitely a swap for a 3rd funhouse or something cheaper. Jag over performed, guaranteed tags/click taxing is the goal especially with starlight knight and b-1001 to back it up. Janaina was the economy and MVP of the deck, just playing the mind game of where she is or what did I install is the aim of the deck and its how I could read my opponents to tell what they would run and when, extremely important since I didnt know anyone's habits.

Overall deck went 3-1 and lost to just out of gas with credits vs Arissana, final match the runner when conduit in to R&D as I was on 4 points and ran into behold, then double psychographics for 3 pointer beale was a fast win even for this deck.

Thanks to Dudeydude and Leckermadchen for helping me learn and test the decks and for introducing me to the Melbourne community, and can't wait for my 2nd event!
