Previous thread just in case: I just realized, when NULL was announced, I was complaining about his ability's interactions and how core anarch breaker suite was still so heavily defining the faction.
So only fair that I give praise for what seems to be happening with a likely complete renewal of the Icebreakers on offer for the faction.
Good job on that.

>what seems to be happening with a likely complete renewal of the Icebreakers on offer for the faction.
While I am quite happy about that, I am mildly concerned/irritated that a) Anarchs seem to be getting at least one new breaker suite before criminals get a full decent one, and b) that there's a Fracter that's universally better than Corroder at breaking (install and inf are both worse though), pic related.
On the other hand, this does show that they're willing to make better breakers, which may be a relief for crims

I'm waiting for the rest of the cycle, hopefully some issues are addressed. Anarch side, there's still the Killer elephant in the room. Shapers have never been in a *bad* place I find myself.
That being said, as far as crims are concerned, I find the central only + B&E suite can be made to wok decently well. It's risky and messy, too much for competitive play I guess, but you *can* make it work decently well and it makes for very good games.
Evan Cox
Maybe.
Not sure about the Centrals + B&E for Geist, seems like it'd be nice, but people tend to use Corroder and Gordian/Peacock
Cameron Clark
Golden does sound pretty decent for Au Revoir decks, especially if the rezzed sentry on that central server you just wheeled into happens to be the outermost ice.
Xavier Brown
Anything new for netrunner at gencon?
Andrew Reyes
And then Khan+Temujin allows you to uninstall the piece of ICE, reinstall Golden to be used immediately, having only paid for the breaking if a successful run.
(Temujin/High Stakes job on HQ with Gabe... I have a new purpose.)
GPI net tap allows you to expose whole servers and only jack out if needed, which is something I'm warming up to. Especially if you can make the trade of of rezzing a sentry as ETR prohibitive.
Definitely things to be done there.
Question, where would you people go to build a Daeva-themed deck? My guess is Shaper - Professor would be nice for full jank, but no Xanadu...

>Especially if you can make the trade of of rezzing a sentry as ETR prohibitive. If you found yourself against asset spam with tour guide, Cortez would be the most hilarious thing - someone used him in a Reina deck (with Xanadu as it happens) it was brutal. Archer would likewise be dead

Other then the full bleed Wall of Static and plastic CT, nothing so far sadly. Most worrying.
It's derez actually, which is quite important for AR/wheel incidentally. Not quite as useful for Khaaan! assuming she is not going that route.
