Introduction |
I had never played a constructed Borg deck, and wanted to try one. I thought the Borg dissidents looked interesting. And so I wound up with this. It was actually...surprisingly fun! It definitely struggled with dilemmas, though in some cases I think that involved mistakes on my part. This was a fun enough deck that I think I might try it again someday. |
|
Round 1 | | John Corbett | FL (-100) |
John was running a strong Ferengi solver that could produce huge amounts of counters, and also had a lot of solid tricks for dealing with dilemmas. Meanwhile, he knew just how to stop me time after time, dealing serious setbacks with Secret Identity and WNOHGB, among others. I just couldn't keep up. |

Round 2 | | Connor Corbett | FW (+100) |
Connor was playing regular (non-dissident) Borg. His dilemmas killed quite a few of my personnel, but when I play 30 personnel, the loss of 8 isn't a big deal. |

|
Round 3 | | Constance Corbett | FW (+40) |
Constance was playing a Telepathy-focused deck, with lots of high Integrity telepaths, plenty of skill overlap, and mostly easy missions. I struggled somewhat with stopping her. Our game went to time and in my final turn I attempted my last mission with 17. She threw pretty much every dilemma she had left at me, but it wasn't enough. |

Closing Thoughts |
Cool deck. Not top-tier, I think, but surprisingly cool, considering Borg are (or were) my least favorite affiliation in the game. |
