On our agenda:
Deck Tech: Armand 'Geist' Walker
- This week, Panelist Liam Prasad showcases his take on Geist. A list utilizing Geist's unique but powerful ability to full effect, Shielsy goes deep on explaining the almost hidden click-efficency and why he beleives that Geist is here to knock the Dispossessed Aristocrat off her throne.
Deck Tech: Jinteki BioTech
- 2014 Australian National Champion Jesse Marshall guides us on a tour of the BioTech facility. This list takes advantage of the fearsome Batty (who has without a doubt broken the game and from which we'll never recover), in combination with other powerful upgrades and niche ICE like Cortex Lock and the fan-favorite mind game Mushin No Shin. You're in for a wild ride.
