Abstract: We describe the topological A and B twists of 3d mathcalN=4 theories of hypermultiplets gauged by mathcalN=4 vector multiplets as certain deformations of the holomorphic-topological (HT) twist of those theories, utilizing the twisted superfields of Aganagic-Costello-Vafa-McNamara describing HT-twisted 3d mathcalN=2 theories. We rederive many known results from this perspective, including state spaces on Riemann surfaces, deformations induced by flavor symmetries, the boundary VOAs of Costello-Gaiotto, and the category of line operators as proposed by Costello-Dimofte-Gaiotto-Hilburn-Yoo. Along the way, we show how the secondary product of local operators in the holomorphic-topological twist is related to the secondary product in the fully topological twist.
