Tempo Toolbox Ob (Startup)

moistloaf 174

vegan scoring ob which attempts to out tempo runner within the first few turns, going horizontal while assembling a remote. scoring the final agenda usually requires any combination of Stavka combo, ZATO rigshooting, or ZATO click compression (every ETR ice becomes Border Control).

if runner can stay on top of your assets, you're in trouble. protecting DBS is worthwhile.

you need an overload of 3 cost ICE to always threaten Stavka combo; luckily Weyland+Neutral has lots of good 3 cost ICE. I've yet to find+rez the Refuge Campaign in any of my 14 games, but it's 4c meaning it can fetch you a 3c ICE or ZATO in a pinch.

lastly, I hate STM, but playing two 3-pointers buys you a few more slots. it's quite likely this list would be better making cuts to play two more 2 pointers and 2 hostile takeovers. this would also create more NA guesswork for the runner.

playing more Extract would be good but the clickless Excavator is preferable IMO.
