Examining the Stock Market; Top 5 Corporations


With Worlds just a few weeks out, most of us are tearing down our decks and trying to get to that final build we are completely happy with. The process "mostly" starts with the decision of a base ID card to use and then build out from there.

Today we each rank and give reasoning of our Top 5 corporate identity cards currently available to date. Let us know what you think are your big 5 in the comments and include your winning corporation prediction for worlds.

Good luck to everyone going. Keep watch for a Blue, Toronto Blue Jays ball cap // I hear people from Minnesota love Canadians (Justin Morneau could do no wrong). If you see me, come say hi. This will be my first time in the "Land of 10,000 Lakes" so any places I should see or stop at while I'm there, toss those recommendations this way.

BWBI on two lists? I think it makes you actually play worse, because you spend your clicks for advancing ice when you should be drawing or make money instead.

My list:

1. NBN TWIY
NBN rush (rush=/= fast advance) is crazy strong right now and this ID is just plain better at it than Making News.

2. Weyland BABW
They also build great rush decks, have a great secondary win condition are crazy rich and force you to use burst economy which is always a nice thing.

3. NBN MN
It's NBN, it's a good ability, what's not to love.

4. HB EtF
The best identity on paper, but I think HB just falls flat to NBN and Weyland right now.

5. Jinteki PE
It's annoying and outright dangerous once the corp manages to get to matchpoint. Though it's just in my Top 5 because I think the competition is worse, not that it's very good.

The Card you are thinking of is Chaos Orb

Another version of the deck, some guy for fun cut out Cereal Boxes and printed cards out at 8.5" x 11" as well. Though that was not tourney legal of course.

First off, the Juggler/Jugular bit killed me. Hilarity!

Second, my list:
1. Weyland BaBW - Especially now, while Bad Publicity still isn't terrible, they feel pretty unstoppable. Geothermal Fracking is a beast.

2. NBN TWIY* - Both the Tag'n'Bag version and the Rush version are the real deal (the Rush version is a little stronger right now).

3. HB EtF - Duh.

4. NBN Making News - Runners aren't using Link so much in our neck of the woods, so Traces are landing all over the place.

5. Jinteki (either flavor) - A well-built, well-piloted Jinteki deck is a nightmare to play against. I'll give the edge to RP, although building a good RP deck is tough. PE is a little easier to build but also a touch more predictable.

I think paradoX's list closely mirrors my own (maybe rearranged a bit) and kinda expected something similar in the video. I've gotta admit did not expect to see BWBI on two lists it just seems to promote very slow play to me which I don't feel is in the corps favor atm.
Jugular, not juggler.
