OFFICIAL Stimhack OCTGN League PART II

Play the game, enjoy the game m8.

“when you start your trip to Ithaca, wish for a long journey”

This league was long and really something if you ask me.

Cheers.

And after 3 weeks of no games because of the baby, today I just lose all the time!

But I still love this frakking game… even when I lose miserably to @Calimsha, so miserably that i think he could have won even if he should have scored 11 or more Agenda points :).

Cheers!

We have our first ban, because of false reporting. We don’t need that. :frowning:

We try to look into everything that goes on, but if something weird happens, please report it on challengeboards SHL2 discussion tab or here or PM us…We want to keep a clean league

@HyperionGap @Giesch I’ve heared you reached an agreement on the result of your match: a win for Hyper.

We cannot change the match you filed. The only solution is that Hyper reposts a win.

We played a game but you d/c’d!

You were up 5 to 0 and things were not great for me!

I think I can win every game I play but that was clearly in your favor. If you wanna report that a win on your side I would not disagree, you were in the driver’s seat clearly.

Hope to play you soon. Fuck your noise <3

Franko, please contact me over your match against Mykonian. You left on purpose. I’d like to know why. Please post here or pm me.

RP is everywhere, especially at the “top” tables. If you watch carefully, most players have reached the top rankings by riding on the back of RP glacier.

the deck is already one of the most powerful ones and combined with the fact that there is no time limit on the league, you are not going to lose on time, you are not going to be forced to play quickly because of the time limit, you will never going to have a draw because of a slow opponent.

One of the most irritating cards in the deck is Enhanced Login Protocol, especially if you are not playing shaper to utilise the Maker’s eye.

I really want to splash 2 copies of a current in my Runner decks and for Criminal we do not have any :smiley: (ok unscheduled maintenance is probably the worst one). I think we have just found a section of the game that the blue cards are not adequate enough :).

Cheers.

Based on screenshot info we hand out a warning to Franko. We also reward Mykonian a win. @Mykonian please report a win. If needed we will validate.

Totally an aside, but in Leela, Unscheduled Maintenance actually has potential to be truly devastating - more so against NBN, PE and BS, but it has potential in other matchups as well.

You are right. But still, what about ELP in RP?

Time to dust off that Big Rig Kate :smile:

  • Shapers have Net Celebrity, which is easily worth 2 card slots even in a corp-current-vacuum. There’s also Maker’s Eye over Indexing, which often changes the impact of ELP from “aw, crap” to “lol he burned 2 cred”
  • Anarchs can either splash for something, use Keyhole, wait for Protesters or just play around ELP with super-deep Medium digs (not like you’re gonna get yourself Snared/Fetaled if you do it right - the absence of PE ping matters a ton here)
  • Criminals can work around with Sneakdoor, Dirty Laundry, Inside Job or any splashed trick (for my current decks, that would be Maker’s Eye and Medium)

ELP in RP is an eventuality you need to be mentally prepared for, but come on - not like it hasn’t been around for ages. My personal opinion is that the extra click doesn’t hurt you too badly if you still get your two clicks’ worth out of the run. It may make winning harder and/or take longer, but not necessarily impossible*

Wait, what were we talking about, again?

Decks and not the league :blush:

Reminder, we are in the last 48 hours!

You are awesome, but I spilled water on my laptop and will not be octgning for the foreseeable future. Have a like and some elo.

When does the league end ?

22/01 at midnight GMT+0 ?

Word from the boss.

Little boss :wink:

Also a warning: the latest octgn patch has a messed up the shuffle. There are several reports of a runner playing TME and the corp seeing different cards afterwards.

all the magic the gathering online shuffler conspiracy theorists were right all along!
