Following Alabama Nate's comment, let's kick start a new thread about actual gameplay. With all the mid-range decks running rampant in the meta (e.g. Jupiter based Starfleet, Enemy of My Enemy Cardassian, etc.) do speed decks still have a chance? What do the masses think?
For reference, I would define a speed deck as something with 10+ personnel whom cost 1 or less, a high percentage of nouns over verbs, and the capacity to be out attempting on turn 2 or 3. From the looks of the tournament results page, these decks only won a handful of high-level events in 2018 and have been mostly middle-of-the-pack in events with high rated players. Are the days of blowing your opponents' doors off over? Let's hear it!
