This the deck i was able to take the Sacramento Store Championship with and placed 4th in our regionals. I lost to Davis Kingsly in the top 4 due to drawing a sub optimal hand for the planet structure.
I went with AM instead of Tao for the extra command. 3X Devastators are a must right now due to so many Worr and Kith decks. Last minute add was 2 suppressive fires for a crushing blow and primal howl. The reasoning was that nobody would expect the suppressive fire out of SM and I hate having six 0 Attack characters. At least the void pirate can lay down some cover fire for my marines. I took out 1 Teleportarium after the store championship for 1 Catachan due to adding some ATT to the zero cost units. But i mostly used it on my Cato and was able to bloody an Subject Omega on Turn 2 due to a crushing blow as well. I am not overly sold on the catachan but the Teleportarium itself was instrumental in my victories.
Take a look and let me know what you think.

One question. How do you use teleportarium? I find it unreliable to play due to blue icon reliance and by playing it i'm afraid to lose tempo because of its cost. Thanks
I find with the teleportarium it is another combat trick in your arsenal with eager recruits and drop pods. I did get lucky in most of my games with a favorable planet structure for it. One game I deployed a unit at a blue planet to win command. During the battle at the adjacent planet I waited for my opponent to be exhausted and then action my guy over and continue my attack tempo. I only run 1 but did see it every game except my final 4 match. I never found it losing tempo but it could also work as a deploy stall. Again I had great planet set up this weekend but I can see the hesitation. I just love movement tricks and find it plays to my style and with Cato killing for resources I never found it outside of my budget.

Though no guarantee of preventing this from happening completely, running more than 50 cards does increase the probability of it occurring.
Congrats on top 4! Ain't no shame in losing to Kingsley lol
Congrats on the win!
