Thank you everyone, I really appreciate it! I'm sorry my skill level may not be of world class caliber but I literally started playing Netrunner two weeks ago (grueling matches and a lack of sleep also took its toll). I want to congratulate and thank Ben for such an intense and memorable finals! And thanks to FFG for hosting a spectacular event.
The turnout was 43 players and, to me, it felt like a World Championships - I battled players from Germany, Los Angeles, Oklahoma, and Iowa. The game is fairly new and many areas have yet to establish a competetive tournament scene. I'm sure next year's Championships will be bigger and tougher as the game grows and evolves.
The metagame was full of Criminal, some Shaper, and very little Anarch. HB was well represented, some NBN and Weyland, and maybe three Jinteki. I'm sure the first Datapack will shake things up.
Thanks again for an amazing weekend!
Im most shocked by the ruling in finals game 2 where an illegal ice was placed in the server, and the game simply continued rather than ruling it a game loss. EVen if it was unintentional, Id expect a higher level of rules enforcement in a worlds final where hidden information is so key. there are many ways to "cheat" in NR that arent detected immediately due to facedown cards, so this seems a poor precedent to set.
for instance: you COULD play an agenda as an ice if you thought it was too vulenrable in HQ< and later install over it so it goes to archives facedown. it would be hard to prove that it had happened that way if other facedown cards hit archives. but that is 100% cheating and should be DQ'd if you pulled that off. what if the runner played infiltration and saw an agenda where ice was? based on how this was handled, theyd just trash the agenda "ice" and play continues? BOOO!
i think floor rules on hidden info and what happens if found to be incorrect need to be much stricter and enforced, or cheaters will have too much an upper hand in competitive play. Magic suffered from this problem in its early days especially.
no disrespect meant to jeremy, or implying he had ill intent, but that was a huge misplay and totally illegal. to be simply slapped on the wrist or an illegal play then win a few turns later due to opponent brainfart feels a terrible way to lose a big tournament if i was player2…

I think the tournament was more of a beta this year. Things should be better once the OP system is developed over the next year and more content is released.

Maybe his champ card will be ice you can install as an agenda/asset?
Ahaha, brilliant!

This was the first thing I thought of when asked about designing my card.
I completely understand the furor over my blunder and I fully expected a game loss for it. It was unexcusable and will forever blemish my title. I really want to thank Ben for being such a gracious opponent and letting the game continue. You're a true gentleman!
Also the game designer Lucas was right there and was okay with them fixing the illegal game state when it was discovered. And considering Ben stole that agenda that was supposed to be where the ice was Jeremy certainly did not benefit from things at all.

Win next year as well. Then, you still have a 'clean' title. Easy, no? :p

When I read this, I thought about it. What it could be is Jeremy Z., Unique Neutral or Haas-Bioroid Upgrade - Sysop Ambush where it would be like "While this card is here (even unrezzed, otherwise it's a giveaway ), ICE can be placed face down like an agenda and can store advancement counters with a trash cost of 0. trash - Runner accessing rooted ICE suffers subroutines, with the cost of 1 advancement counter per subroutine" or something like that.
