Core Damage PD (2nd @ Februar AMT)

cmur2 38

This deck from Toron was never meant to be good - and yet it brought me to 2nd place in my first top cut ever, dropping only 1 game.

I didn't know which corp to bring to this weekend's AMT since after the banlist I fell out of love with Jukebox Asa...

I mainly wanted to play more of The King's Mulch Hoshiko and saw Toron's "Step 1: Score a 5/3" being featured on The Métropole Grid and thought, "why not?" I didn't have high expectations and wanted to have fun even if I lose ¯\(ツ)

I made the changes that Toron recommended in his writeup to have -1 Jaguarundi, -1 NEXT Diamond, +2 Brân 1.0 for centrals which definitely helped.

People should trash Djupstad Grid on sight and avoid facechecks without a killer, Boomerang or Tsakhia "Bankhar" Gantulga.

Well done at the AMT! Would you have any replays to share of the deck? Would love to see how you pilot this deck

@knack Thank you! I will link the replays in the description (unless the opponents want to see them gone) soon.

You will see that it is essential for winning against Deep Dive decks to hit the Deep Dive out of hand with core damage the turn before they want to use it 😅

Wow, it’s amazing to see how a deck that wasn’t initially expected to perform well can bring you to 2nd place! snow rider 3d adjustments you made seem to have paid off, and it’s inspiring to hear how you embraced the journey with no high expectations but still managed to do so well. Keep rocking those unexpected victories!
