Slight correction on how the blaster gets steam counters. It’s the third time you play a card with boost on it. You don’t actually have to boost three times.

I think you generally want the gun package against guardians, dori and arakni (not just guardians). Also the option to start with pistol + induction chamber in the aggro variant is very valueable to prevent fatigue-ing without trying to go full control. (against e.g. Rhinar or other Dash, or Dromai).

Honestly, while the new blaster seems really good, I really like just the pistol. It feels so much better when by the end of the game when I am running low on cards so I still have a weapon I can use or at the end of a high octane turn to use floating resources. It feels better in blitz where the game only lasts a few turns.

I don't think I agree with the payload's + shockwave. This deck can really underperform when you don't consistently get the 3 boosts of every turn. I would cut the cards for 2 cost boost attacks!

This looks really clunky. You have 17 cards that don't boost, meaning about 1 in 3 hands will contain 2 of of them. That's fine if you're running Pistol or Talishar and don't mind blocking a bit, but won't work with Hanabi Blaster. My initial Dash brew used Blaster and 8 cards without Boost. I would say I was still only able to fire it off 2 times in 5 turns on average. I would suggest dropping the Payloads and the Shockwaves for Scramble Pulse (R) and Combustible Courier (B) or High Speed Impact (B) if you want a reasonable chance of getting Blaster shots off. Replacing those 6 cards drops your chance of drawing 2+ non-Boosts from 32.5% to 15.4%. Otherwise I think you're better off with Talishar in the weapon slot.

you killed that

Any consideration for Bios Update, or is the Hanabi Blaster shifting as much as possible towards just boost cards?

why is this a thing now ? Is Pulsewave harpoon that good ? or is that now that there is no Prism this is viable ?
