Corroder is the often the breaker you install last. Bako is the only common barrier that requires Corroder. Meru on HQ too maybe.

Two Elis also require a Corroder I think?
Amped up is more versatile

What reasonable Val player doesnât play 3x IHW 3x Inject 3x Hotel/Pancake Party and fire them all off asap.
I think the corroder cut is probably the most logical. Not sure if that stresses your clone chips too much though by needing to chip the corroder. Think its the queens gambit, corroder, or possibly a datasucker for the david. Iâve been testing a ton without the queens gambit, havenât missed it too much (mainly in certain rp/neh scenarios which this deck is strong against already) but will test without 2nd corroder and 2nd datasucker.
My RAMaxX 46 cards went undefeated today (I played like ten games with her before this tournament) and another RAM player won the Regionals (45 cards). It feels so much better than Kate.
We had one USA player, he took fourth place (Tracy from Louisiana).

Itâs interesting that MaxX seemed to be winning a lot of events just after OaC, then died down for a bit, and now seems to be having a bit of a resurgence. Is that all down to NRE or was she always good enough?
Iâm curious what âpersonalityâ changes people have been making to Reg Ass from the typical Net Ready Eyes build? The package all works together so well that Iâm having trouble finding cards I might want to play around with outside of just ratios (I.e. 2 or 3 Kati, 1 or 2 knifed, etc).
It seems like the potential flex spots are things like Queenâs Gambit, Stimhack, and maybe Legwork. Has anyone made some interesting changes on the general build that theyâve really liked?

Is Legwork even good anymore? Six months ago I was winning all my games with it, and nowadays all I do with it is fire it off when I donât have anything else to do.

I think MaxX always stayed pretty good in the tier liest, but people where just worried about lotus field being everywere. The reg-ass builds always has been more consistent vs the eater-keyhole-denial deck variant, but those had a more snowball/win-more effect.
Now with NRE out, people are willing to give it a go again. Just my 2 centsâŚ
Legwork is still good, but finding a right moment to fire is getting harder with all those glacier RP decks out there, and donât even speak about legworking butchershop
Isnât it as simple as (1) economically superior anarch ID + new anarch toys = really good flavour of the month. (2) donât we just lose because Blacklist? (3) oh, you mean itâs a pain in the ass but you donât actually need all your cards to win netrunner games AND Net Ready Eyes is disgusting.

With Blacklist there are two options:
- TaxX: Create a server for it that runner will get in and trash it for some cost. It can create a scoring window, but it wonât singlehandedly win you the game with MaxX.
- End the Game: Create a server that runner canât get in. Unless the MaxX player is unlucky, he can still win. Locking MaxX is very hard and using the corpâs resources for it can lose the game. I know the Blacklist play lost me the game in Top 8 yesterday - MaxX had all the breakers and NRE, but no econ. The player just took creds and ran with Medium when he could. If I stopped the R&D runs he would have won from a simple HQ. I was flooded because of Blacklist.
