Gratz to Chris! I’ve been testing Titan glacier too, and it’s surprisingly strong. Hope to post some vids of it shortly.
congrats to him! I’d be interested to know what his record/matchups/thoughts/etc. were… still though, 37 players is nothing to shake a stick at.
I’ve been grinding out titan builds and I constantly waffle between sansans and defensive upgrades. (both have significant strengths, but at times seem like not enough on their own). I’d be really interested to hear more about your decklist (including how it played, what you strategy was with it, etc.) as well as from @CJFM, whose decks I generally have mad respect for.
I’m plagued by the feeling that titan is very close to being a very strong weyland choice, just can’t seem to make it stick…

I want to post it soon, but haven’t had time this weekend to take it through the ringer. 
I still don’t like Mark Yale, but I like the decklist overall. (I like my Hedge Funds to not require that I scored an agenda first.)
Snare is an interesting choice. I do think that the way to go with Titan is definitely to threaten the Scorch kill if the runner is careless. I’m also high on Sansan for Titan atm. The ICE suite is definitely interesting, and I kinda like Changeling in the limited testing I’ve done.
I think the nice thing about Titan is that an unadvanced card is a bigger threat to the runner since you could score an Atlas and get a counter. Sure, 2 points is nice for any other Weyland faction but the Atlas token puts a lot of pressure on the runner. Snare lets you bluff an Atlas.
Snare! is a good choice, but I’ve personally lost interest in trying to kill the runner: I’m on the Caprice + Ash + money + annoying ass ICE plan.
Do you have a decklist?
Congrats to Chris as well. That’s also a pretty crazy runner deck.
Yes, here’s the working list. Again, I’ve only had a handful of games with it as of yet. Trying to fit in a bootcamp. I want to spend more time with it this week before I start playing it, say, in Stimhack League.
EDIT: Oh, I wanted to add that the more I play with non Core/Blue Sun Weyland, the more I realize how poor the ids can be. I would probably play this out of Core if we had about 3 more relevant transactions that didn’t cost influence. Though it might just be a worse Bootcamp Glacier

Chris here that ran the Titan Hybrid at the 37 player tournament. I am writing a tournament report at the moment but I can answer any questions you might have.
To my surprise the deck went 7-1 over the day (I thought Haley would be stronger but only went 5-3). I won against (in order) DLR Valencia (Kill), Whizzard (Points), PP Kate (Points), PP Kate (Kill), DLR Valencia (Kill), DLR Valencia (Points) and PP Kate (Kill) in the finals.The single loss was to a DLR MaXX from one of my main training partners.
So in total that is 3 wins by Points and 4 through scorch. Snare! won me two games vs DLR Valencias.
During the swiss I didn’t find a single SanSan but they saved the day in the Top 8. I prefer the SanSans because they pressure the runner to react immediately if they don’t trash, then Atlas train. If they do they had to run through my scoring server usually making them poor. Then I tutor the Sea Source and scorch.
I think that for Titan hybrid is the way to go. NBN does FA better and sadly pure kill as well. But once you have the first Atlas scored it is usually a win for me.
Edit: @CrushU Mark Yale is usually at least my 4th Hedge Funds/Saves me after a Siphon/or is remote bait. Another fun thing with SanSans is to protect them with a Snare! while you are waiting for an Agenda/Money

could that single Shutdown be an Interns? how often did you play that Shutdown?
Yes you could change it to your meta. I played shutdowns about every 1/3 games. Usually to kill a SMC or Clone Chip. Sometimes for important/expensive breakers depending on the matchup if I had a Jackson out.
What would you need the interns for? You can usually only afford to rez SanSans once and if you already have then you should be close to winning. For ice? Parasite is getting less with Noise players switching to DLR.
Wait…what?

Not so much DLR but I have noticed that that with faust what noise players are parasiting is different now. In the last couple of months they are not always hitting my ice walls or other small ice, but dropping them on archers, and other ice that tax faust (like spiderweb). Heck people are often actually letting them tick down. Especially if they think you are packing snare.
The other change I have noticed is that a large percentage of faust noise players seem to want to use their sucker tokens to make faust cheaper then to para sucker ice.
That makes perfect sense. I can’t really see why noise would run DLR since his whole deck is DLR in virus form.
Sorry I guess I was unclear. I have the feeling that many former noise players have switched to playing DLR decks with Valencia or MaXX. This makes the Noise or general Anarch matchup rarer leading to less parasite in the meta in a whole.
I see that there were a couple of mental leaps that I didn’t explain

I was probably just a bit drained on the day and it went over my head
So here’s a question: I only got into Netrunner, about six, seven months ago, as Butchershop was really starting to take off. Why doesn’t anyone run Midseasons in Weyland? Too much influence? Just that Weyland doesn’t bring anything to the table?
Why do it in Weyland when you can do it in NBN?
I played titan during a sc. It is very dependant on the first atlas. But if you get it, you can usually win. My main grip with titan is that we don’t have many good agendas with counters in weyland.
