I was testing out my Apex deck yesterday, friend was playing with New Angeles Sol. The moment he scored a single Improved Tracers, I got locked out of R&D by a single Caduceus, because his current of choice was Surveillance Sweep. Then Flare took out Heartbeat and locked me out of the scoring server. Maybe it was my build, but I found I never had money. That Caduceus stopped me from landing the Apocalypse, but geez it really cemented for me how vulnerable Apex is to traces and program trashing. Given how prevalent both are going to be for now, I'm gonna drop Apex until I figure out a workaround.

Gingerbread, or more universally, an AI breaker.

Cypsis would probably be a good choice, and depending on how influence goes, parasite will always be a potential slot.
David is worth considering, but that is a lot of influence
e3 is a useful thing for Apex too

With a PPVP economy (because it's all neutral) Apex could be seriously strong, and cards like Inside Job and Feint make it much easier to pull of the apocalypse
>>
>>43414907
I really don't like Crypsis here because of how expensive it is. E3 is a big tempo hit.

The awkward thing about PPvP is that once you Apocalypse, all that money is gone. Admittedly it works well with regular breakers, but at that point why even play Apex? I like Inside Job, but 3 influence a piece is hard to swallow.

With Apocalypse you need a plan for after, and you have to be willing to chuck everything to crush the corp.

Something it'd be worth looking to do (or to have the capacity to do) would be to have Apocalypse as set up for a later Prey, or use (1 inf) Independent Thinking to use it to draw all your things.
LARLA is another good follow-up, once you've trashed the flipped cards

>>43416517
You pretty much have to rely on your ability to click through subroutines most of the time. Building Adam feels like being given the option of Econ, Breakers, Recursion, Tricks: Pick two.

Multithreader makes me think he wants a single breaker rig, which means Eater Keyhole. Whatcha think?
>>
>>43417077
>Econ, Breakers, Recursion, Tricks: Pick two.

That's about it, yeah, feels very tight.

I've liked Faust with him quite a lot. You get your free draw every turn, you can use Independent Thinking for rushing a big server, allows you to put put several copies of cards you absolutely want to draw yet don't need all copies in play and still put hem to good use.

The issue with me is building something that is "averaged" enough to be able to capitalize on Adam' early game threat yet still be able to play the long game if needed. There's talk of people just going the former and leaving even Multithreader out... which kinda makes sense, but that's a big wager.

I'm loving the idea of some econ pressure long-er game Adam (I've had a lot of fun with Donut Taganes + Lovegood if/when needed) but again, influence wall. You're so tight you can never get all you'd want.

Conversely importing ABR in some Reina decks has been loads of fun.

>>43417271
Faust eh? I like Faust, but you want to turn off ABR with it I guess since you don't want to throw away too many cards? My biggest problem with Faust is that there's no synergy with Multithreader. Unless you run Bug, then maybe. What other programs are there that can fully utilise Multithreader? If we run support programs instead, that could be interesting, but apart from Savoir-Faire (antisynergistic here) and Bug (probably best choice), I don't see what can help complement Multithreader. Surfer?

>>
>>43418003
*cut one more Bug and replace with another Public Sympathy cos Study Guide is 4 inf, not 3 inf.
>>
>>43417816

What makes you see Savoir Faire as anti-synergistic ? It allows you to turn two credits into an install click, which are at a premium here. The issue is more the influence cost and the fact that you're probably not going to have that many programs to install. If not for the former, I'd certainly give it a chance.
And yeah, we're clearly lacking so far in support programs that could use Multithreader. I guess that's where Deva programs come in ?

I like Bug in there, I really do. People scoff at it, but once you get it in place it really helps making the most of your runs.

If you're going Faust, I think you're going all out early aggression. If not, well, classic Anarch suite + Multithreader can work I guess. Or just use another AI ?

Crypsis, I'd say no because of the clicks. Conversely, Knight would almost be good for me if the click didn't make it awkward on top of ABR. Darwin ? Too costly given you'll need/want support too. Eater ? Means you're also going to import replacement effects. Could work I guess with a Keyhole focused R&D strat and access on HQ. Awkward again. Alpha/Omega ? I'd be almost tempted actually. But seven cost install *and* three influence in that deck ? No. Overmind is the obvious choice. Especially given Brain Chip. But then the big issue is you'd want a breaker that does well for multi-subs, given ABR can clear single ones. For long run decks is it really worth it ?

I really wish Modded was 1 inf like Career Fair. It just fits so nicefor me in Adam. Especially early game.

Sure, Savoir-Faire does help you turn Multithreader credits into install clicks, but what are you installing? I say anti-synergistic because I doubt there are many things you want to install. It's just not worth the slot.

Good point about Deva programs! That's something to look forward to, hopefully they won't be too influence-heavy.

I think Surfer is worth trying out as a barrier breaker substitute. If they try to bring out Wraparound to stop your Faust, you can surf the Wraparound and click through it.

The Faust here is actually for unexpected runs + backup. It gets the Str 4 sentries and barriers I can't click through. Or maybe Study Guide is just a shit idea and I should swap that for a Corroder and a Zu. Classic Anarch suite while nice is too reliant on Datasuckers for my liking here.

I wish I could use Knight. Eater Keyhole is an option, but it's very all-in. Overmind makes sense, though the tempo hit is pretty big and you want to install it before your Multithreaders. Modded at 1 inf is just way too strong, I think. I'd love it tooo though.

>>43418767
I can see why E3 is good, but I never feel like I have enough credits to use it consistently.
>>
Something I hadn't thought about, really dangerous too, but Jak Sinclair in Adam. Aggro overkill.

Basically Jak+ABR breaking, mandatory first click run + Faust/AI of choice...

Can you even use the ABR breaking on a Jak run ? Given your first spent click must be on a run, doesn't that imply you cannot use the ABR break ?
Oh, well...
>>
>>43419226
Clicks aren't numbered, so whatever clicks you have left after your Jak run is your first click.
>>
I think this one is still my favorite.
>>
>>43419779

That's not the issue.

ABR says:

>Your first [Click] each turn must be spent to make a run or play a run event.

>Once per turn, you can SPEND [Click] [Click] to break a subroutine on a piece of ice currently being encountered

So, if I haven't yet spent that first click on a run (because Sinclair's effect predates the click expenditure) , am I allowed to *spend* clicks on breaking a subroutine.

If that the same as, say, Wyldside, where you *lose* one click.

Comparison with Kati:

2 install cost
5 clicks will land you 12 credits. for a net benefit of 10. Pure liquidities, can be used for anything. Pretty straightforward.

Chatterjee:
1 install cost

Now it gets messy, my guess is that you want to get it between 2-4 counters and then refill it as needed, since as long as you keep high every click is worth the number of counters in program install. At 3-4 that turns it into a four credits per click. with a four click needed starting tax.

I'd say slower decks with numerous expensive/mid-range programs could use that. Technical Writer could make good support ?

Kati is relatively sensitive to a well placed Snatch&Grab.
Tagging + 2 credits will destroy either. If no Wireless Pavilion.
Character Assassination just smash through both.

Any sensible option I'm forgetting ?

Interesting. I'm not sold on Grifters, but I can see how they would be useful in a deck with ABR.

Get a hang of their strengths and weaknesses, sa sa?

This brings me to an idea I've been toying with, actually. What if each of the D&D runners could play well with the cards of the others? Directives in Apex, Multithreader in Sunny, Endless Hunger or Sunny's breakers in Adam.

>>43444444
>tfw you install Corporate Troubleshooter on Off-Campus Apartment.
>>
>>43444459
They can.

Harbinger works well to fuel the card draw of Independent Thinking in Adam decks, without costing you anything useful.

Trash a directive, and a Harbringer, and you get to draw four cards. Plus the Harbringer comes back to use again.
>>
>>43444459
Grifters can possible give you quite some dosh and when you don't need them anymore you can trash them for any Apex effect when they would end up being trashed anyway.

>Directives in Apex, Multithreader in Sunny, Endless Hunger or Sunny's breakers in Adam.
Haven't thought of EH in Adam, sounds funny.
>>
>>43444518
Harbinger, Harbringer, gah.

I can't stop mixing those up.
>>
>>43444444
Because there is only 1 copy in the core set.
But I agree with the sextuples, it is a great card because it used to be the only card that could make an ice's subs fire more than just on the first encounter.
>>
>>43444548
Would it be possible to trash the same harbinger twice to the 1 independent thinking? i think that may be a thing.
>>
>>43444562
Don't think so. All the cards would be trashed at once, so it'd only come back after Independent Thinking finished resolving.
>>
>>43444562
Nope I don't see how that would be possible. I think you select which cards get trashed and then you trash them simultaneously. Not like "I trash this card, then this card, and then this again".
>>
>>43444459
I think all deluxe boxes are designed to work by themselves. So you could combo any runner in the box with other minifactions cards. The biggest example of this is how Sunny can't be played without Multithreader due to how expensive those breakers are. Or how Prey makes Adam life easier by trashing ICE you're breaking with ABR.
>>
>>43444560
They did that promo not too long ago so I figure most people have 3 copies. I have like 7.

Wait a second, does that mean you can't trash the same Harbinger twice with one Prey?
How would it work with damage prevention?
You get scorched, can you trash the same Harbinger twice with Heartbeat?
Obviously if it's a Komainu, you could, but what about a Neural Katana?
>>
>>43444821
>You get scorched, can you trash the same Harbinger twice with Heartbeat?
Yes
>Obviously if it's a Komainu, you could, but what about a Neural Katana?
Yes

You see, the thing with damage prevention is that it's coming from a paid ability. So you trigger Heartbeat once to prevent 1, then you keep triggering Heartbeat the same way to keep preventing damage.

That's not the case with Prey. Prey says that you have to trash X numbers of cards, and those are trashed simultaneously.

I've been thinking, one of the reasons NEH is so damn good is that its (totally unnecessary) 17 influence lets it splash a 4 inf card much more easily than other NBN IDs

Somebody last thread mentioned that is a big, powerful 4-inf card in each faction:
Biotic Labor, Scorched Earth, Midseason Replacements and Caprice Nisei

So I got thinking about Titan - with its 17 influence, could it do something similar?

I'm thinking Caprice - though Midseasons is good it gets shat on by Film Critic, and while BL might be good for Atlas and the many 1-pointers Weyland has, Caprice is just straight up powerful - making the runner run through Archer again seems like it should be fun, right?


For extra-jank mode I'm thinking "Off the Capricium Grid" - defending a Crisium Grid HQ with Ice and Caprice, to further secure the Off the Grid
>>
>>43448123
That actually rings a bell. I think somebody did that to me at some point. There's too many parts in that combo, so I found the agendas before it got up. But I'm certainly I saw all those cards in the deck.
>>
>>43448123
The difference is that Titan effectively starts at 14 INF after Jackson, while NEH just straight gets 17 INF

Sadly, not with noise and DLR in the meta. Jackson gets you that little boost you need at the right moment.
>>
>>43443706

I'm really digging Adam, as expected.
It's basically the pace of most of my deck made mandatory (as if I cared), with added bonuses on top.
Pretty fun, and proving to be pretty good too.

Sunny. Good. Very Good. But I don't like her. Just not my style - big rigs aren't my thing.
I've played some mean games against her though, and those I liked.

Apex is loads of fun to play, but I think a bit struggling so far. That being said, when you get the ball rolling it can be soul-crushing for the corp.
>>
>>43448501
I was thinking today that DLR is wrong. It shouldn't be "If you're tagged, DLR gains x ability...", it should be "Click: trash the top, if you do this, get a tag at the end of the turn."
>>
>>43448440
One (edge case) thing I found with Jackson today was that he can be a last minute reprieve against the Globalsec R&D lock - he shuffles R&D, so if you're about to lose you might as well fire him to waste the run
>>
>>43448440

The thing is that Mr. Howard is always good. There's just too much value in one card, and while it may not always be the optimal slot-use (See the original GRNDL Supermodernism for one, in which I think slotting some Anonymous Tip instead was the right call) , it's hardly ever (I'd say never, but let's be circumspect) a *bad* investment.

There's also the issue of how much of a mitigation tool it can be in tournament context - again the old issue of wanting to make the decks as optimized and as randomness-adverse as possible. As a transaction - as an exchange of values, there's no point at which you're not coming on top against the Runner when playing Howard.
In a tournament context, it's understandable why the card would be so ubiquitous.

So while I'll be the first to say that, no you don't *need* Howard in every deck, far from it, it's understandable why so many people would think so.

>>
>>43448552
>>43448552
No, think about the time when dlr came out a tag wass dangerous if you did not have a fridge on. Plus if tagged allows dlr to be trashed.
It also has the requirement of needing a run to install.
>>
>>43448689
>No, think about the time when dlr came out a tag wass dangerous

The way you're saying this, you'd think being tagged is something that can be scoffed at right now.

And personally, the thing that I think has changed is that's it's never been easier to self-tag.

Before, when the only when Masanori was your go to tool for self tagging, the DLR using deck had to be interactive.

Now with Wireless Pavilion and Paparazzi, you can make an equivalent version that is basically as non-interactive as it gets.
Which fits some play-styles a lot more.
>>
>>43448766

Masanori *or run events (Vamp/AS)*. Don't know what I did I completely fucked up that sentence in cut and paste.
>>
>>43448689
The requirement to install is a given of course, but I'd argue about the tag.

Tags has always been dangerous, but Joshua B. has been there too with this mechanic.

What I'm aiming to say with this is that there's no risk for the runner to keep overusing DLR, if he's tagged he can say "4 clicks, trash 4 cards", and then after you trash DLR he just "pay 2, remove tag". Why? There's no sense of relevance for the runner to trash 1 or 20 cards. No risk.
If the runner were to be tagged for each time he uses it instead, it would either cost him a lot with NACH, or pile tags on top until he can't remove them anymore. And it makes sense thematically. What it doesn't make sense is that you need to be tagged BEFORE you start using DLR.
>>
>>43448849

But I think the whole point of the card was to put the corp between a rock and a hard place in econ denial decks.

That is, the corp had to make a choice of what it was going to trash first - say that Activist Support before it lands its Bad pub, or DLR before it burns your R&D down. All the while doing so also meant not being to get back in threat range.

You know that it's the tag that's being used to connect to the corp and trash shit, thematically?

Amusingly, been going at it the other angle: being 0 virtual resources that deal with two of Apex's most wanted effects (draw and non-ETR subroutines all in one solution) makes ABR and Safety First invaluable for our favorite bulimic AI, I find.
>>
>>43450744
What's your list look like? The Cookie Monster list earlier in the thread?
>>
>>43451087

Nah, generally don't post my lits. They're not worth it.

I think ABR + Endless Hunger + E3 makes for an incredible rig. Not the least of it because Wasteland by itself can be enough to sustain it econ-wise.

Safety First could more than probably be replaced by events advantageously, but I like the fact this can work as a long run rig.

If you're not planning on going crazy with Apocalypse I think it fits. If you do ? Probably not. Not too keen on Apoc myself. I can't see myself wanting to play it more than once per game at most really.

>>43450533
I'm not sure you want Aesop, Cache, Harbinger and Q-Coherence Chip in the same deck.
>>
>>43451408
Wasteland, huh? I don't really like Wasteland so far, seems like it takes too much work too pay off but it does go well with E3. How do you handle, say, Architect? Are you running any multiaccess?

ABR+E3.

>Are you running any multi-access?

Depends on the event selection. I've allocated 8 Influence points on those, and generally try to squeeze some Maker's Eye and/or Legwork.

Main problem for me is I still don't know what strategy I'm really going for with Apex, so I'm still just throwing cards around and trying to see what works for it and me.

DDOS does look like it could be brutal. Should probably try that next.

Where should one start after the beginner box if you like being the runner? Are there any data packs that give you a bunch of new identities or just good baseline cards to have?
>>
>>43458968

You probably want to go with one of the big boxes. If you already have a preferred faction, go for that one's.

C&C has some staples of most decks ever since released (Clone Chip, Self Modifying Code, Same Old Thing, Levy AR Lab Access) and basically completely changed the Shaper faction as it was previously played.

H&P is probably the one that served its runner faction the least, but still it has some pretty decent cards, and if you like the Ctim faction, I'd say it's well worth getting to expand your options.

O&C is all around great for Anarch and introduces great cards for the faction, ell needed econ and draw options as well as some cool toys (Wanton Destruction, Vigil, Eater and the cutlery suite, I've had worse, Amped Up...) if you like Anarchs, you can't possibly go wrong..

Wasteland is only worth it in a pretty long game. Also, if you're going the Wasteland route, Harbinger is better than Cache.

>>43460306
>to make two playable decks
This is one thing that doesn't happen in netrunner.

If you make one deck then there's many, many other decks you can also make with the cardpool that you'd need to build the first one

This can result in "one" deck being very expensive, if it uses cards from a lot of packs, but you also have a huge selection of cards to make any number of other decks as well - a lot of good decks use the same good cards, as well.

Getting the full cardpool is a bit pricey though
>>
>>43460306
Core is $40, but I've seen it as low as 20. You can make two decks to play against each other. It has a lot of replayability. Since you come from Magic I can tell you this box has the equivalent of 7 duel decks with their own flavour and style. Deckbuilding further increase the decks you can make.
You can find a videotutorial up in the OP.

That anon is talking about playing competitively, which obviously means keeping up with the meta and stuff, Netrunner core is actually pretty great to play casually.
>>
>>43460423
The core, on its own is pretty great - it's self-contained in a way that no other pack is, which is the justification for it also being the only pack where there's not 3 of every card (it has a few 2-ofs and 1-ofs, of some very powerful cards)

God damnit, just bought the core set like 2 weeks ago and my friends already don't want to play with me anymore.

Do you guys let them win?
I haven't been beaten since the first day I bought this game, but only because my shit friends didn't put any effort into their decks. I've played with one of them on jinteki.net, before that we agreed that there'll be no netdecking involved. After the 3rd loss he got so butthurt that he netdecked some worlds winner faust wombo combo deck, but of course he couldn't pilot it well and got wrecked by my shitty deck, which I atleast knew how it worked.

Then he proceeded to complain that I've already put too many hours into the game because I'm obsessive and he's never going to be able to beat me.

I know it's just losers whining, but I have no one left to play with. He went back to playing that shitty rngfest called Hearthstone. I mean it's an okay game to play at the toilet, but it's not really a competetive card game.
If I want to play at my local shop I'd have to buy a shitton of data packs to be competetive...

What do?
I see that no one will play it with me and buy data packs in unison so we can have fun. They complain that there are too many cards to read. I should just probably sell it and get something more casual, which I won't enjoy...

There you have your problem. New player's decks suck. Instead you should have linked him to easy to use preconstructed stuff. Like any NBN fast advance or Andromeda decks.
>>
>>43462440
Buy a shitton of data packs and be competitive at your local shop.

Answering your question, no, I don't let them win. I do make high risk plays though.

If you're sticking with the core cards you shouldn't have these kind of problems, since all core decks are flawed. It's likely that your friends are just pussies. Hell, Hearthstone is more intensive than playing casual netrunner with a core set. All those meta combos, rares, and stupid balance patchs makes it impossible to play hearthstone casually and win.

I told him that we should netdeck, because at least we will learn which are the best cards and what's used usually, but he told me it'd ruin the "fun". He wanted that we both build shitty decks with limited knowledge, but basicly got butthurt when I invested more time into reading the cards and being better at determining which ones are good.

I really should have just let him win a few games, but I hate to do that, because it feels bad for both sides I thought...

Lot of the games were really close, so I didn't want to let him win. Like 6 - 7 points or 5 - 7 points most of the time, with a lot of shouting of "HEARTH OF CARDS" then running last click against Jinteki R&D, but I always got retarded lucky.
I guess it's tough, not winning games for little less than 2 weeks.

Core Set got kind of boring after figuring out that Anarch has the best breaker suite that you can splash for basicly free and that HB ETF is the best identity and basicly only HB has good econ.
That's why we went to jinteki.net.
I love the game, but I'm not sure I want to invest a lot of money in data packs, since I'm not that outgoing, when it comes to stuff like this.

The faggot played Hearthstone every day since the closed beta and has every card. I guess he just doesn't want to learn a new game or he doesn't like the fact that the playing field is level and if he doesn't put effort into it he loses.

EtF and anarch breakers are the best, yeah. But it doesn't mean you can't jank with the other factions. Netrunner gets really fun the more ludicrous your wins are. If you just reduce the game to most economy/bigger ICE vs best breakers the game breaks apart pretty fast.
>>
>>43462822
Yeah, but there's always things you can do to mitigate raw econ ending everything.

A runner with multiaccess on R&D, for example, is vulnerable to traps (I killed a guy with a double snare earlier today)

my flgs has one summer kit left and we're playing for it this saturday, should i play reina, an overmind/deep red kim deck, or a ken tenma comet deck?

idk which one to choose because they all are very fun

There will be no new draft this it seems.
They edited it out of the handout and they are tell people to get System Crash stuff for all the events.

Netrunner gets fucked at Worlds again!

Yep another year of fuck you to the ANR community at our only big event.

Game of Thrones has it's entire own event (Week of Ice and Fire or whatever), Call of Cthulhu has it's own event, Star Wars has it's own weekend, etc. Android gets shit on constantly by FFG's event and the community is more or less told to fuck off.
They don't even follow their own rules and have a tiny as fuck cut so the world championship is almost entirely meaningless. It mostly comes down to RNG in the swiss rounds.

But hey X-Wing gets the entire main space the entire weekend of their shit!
>>
>>43463323
>>43463392
Shit like this is what made me to back to MTG really. At least Wizards and Star City Games supports the competitive side well.
>>
>>43463392
They seem to not be doing Days of Ice and Fire anymore.
>>
>>43463392
No Xwing on Saturday this year, when Netrunner is scheduled to be, so here's hoping they flip the place for more Netrunner on that day.
>>
>>43463584
Guess the new Star Wars even took it over.
Looks like FFG's new plan is to say fuck it to the LCG community and focus on their minis.
Games Workshop 2.0?

>>43464035
Yeah with Apocalypse out now I think I will be the card that people use to
"To the last, I grapple with thee; From Hell's heart, I stab at thee; For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee."
>>

>>43464035
Time to sleeve in Hostile Infraestructure
>>
>>43464213
Unsure, but I think Hostile doesn't trigger off Apocalypse except itself once. Simultaneous effects are decided by its owner, and Apex would trash the infrastructure first.

In terms of real play that is. I'm sure jinteki.net and octgn would have an aneurism.
>>
>>43464320
Not 100% sure, but all the trashing happens simultaneously, I don't think the runner gets to choose which cards are trashed first.
The same thing would happen if you Singularity a server with hostile inf and some upgrades. I think you'd get net damage for all the trashed cards.
>>
>>43464662
Do you know for sure if you take the damage in the Singularity example?

Because accessing Archives is simultaneous, yet you pick 1 card at a time.

Shipment from Mirrormorph is simultaneous, yet you install one card at a time and this can affect install costs.

Freelancer on a Fall Guy + Resource results in the Resource staying alive, because the simultaneous Freelancer is preventable by the Fall Guy and it is not possible to target the same thing twice. The Freelancer example is from twitter.

That is when they are going to reveal the new female focused oganized play stuff with Leigh Alexander from Shut up and Sit down.

I read it is things like "Girls Nights" kits that have special promos for female only gaming nights and shit like that. A big focus on creating "Safe Spaces" and shit like that.
>>
>>43464909
I want to believe.
>>
>>43464987
I know this is a joke, but I would be so irate. Would that mean that normal GNKs are men only?
>>
>>43465018
I am not joking. Her and Quinns are really there to talk about FFG's new plan for things like that.
They did a few pilot stores for the girls night kits so we know it is a real thing.

Normal game night kits will be open like they have always been. One of those "We don't need extra things to bring more men into the hobby" bullshit things.

I'd not be shocked if they did a colored people only kit as well. Hell just say fucked and exclude White Males from events.
>>
>>43465066
Leigh and Harley are the shittiest people on the internets. And in real life as well.
>>
>>43465066
Nothing short of expected from The Caliphate of Great Kektain.

Most of this shit we're seeing is from UK Netrunner.

Meanwhile the nationalist right parties are amassing 25%+ votes in Euroland.
>>
>>43465185
I know the big thing about the UK community on Stimhack was a driving force for FFG to enact plans to save the community.

As soon as they drive all those gamers out of gaming they will be able to bask in the glory of a tiny SJW market share.
>>
>>43465066
I personaly do not see a problem with female exclusive events every so often but what i do have a problem with is them recieving exclusive promos.
MY girlfriend ran a girls netrunner night a few months ago with a showing of about 12 people. I think it was grand idea as it encouraged people to join. She then also encouraged people to come and play on the regular nights as well.
>>
>>43465066
I'll need a source on these girls night kits pilot stores. Seems like if that had happened Stimhack would be jizzing over it and /anrg/ would be frothing at the mouth.

Honestly I really enjoy Netrunner draft. It is fun to play in a limited format like that.

More commonly known as the Project Ares + Sacrificial Construct. It's in the FAQ.

Question: Autoturret trashes a program before ending the run. Does this stop a runner whose only icebreaker is Endless Hunger?
>>
>>43466327
Nope - even absent any other cards to trash Endless Hunger can trash itself to break the ETR

Subs resolve in the order they're printed, but they don't have to be broken in that order
>>
>>43466327
Encountering ICE is divided in 3 phases.
1. On encounter abilities trigger. This is stuff like Tollbooth, Data Raven, and Femme Fatale.
2. Breaking subroutines. You can break none, some, or all subroutines.
3. Subroutines not broken resolve in the order they're printed.
>>
>>43465753
nice, thanks for putting in the work

>people playing Hostile Infrastructure, ever

Apex has bigger problems like Susanoo and Snowflake.
>>
>>43466691
I don't like Snowflake because it's worse than a trace. It's a permanent tax for the Corp unless he let you through. It's a lamprey-tier menace that the Corp put on himself.

http://84.205.248.92/slaghund/slagview.aspx
As per OCTGN stats NEH and Valencia are going to win Worlds.
>>
>>43467095
It's just different. It's worse against low power runs, but better against high-power runs (Maker's Eye, Legwork, Account Siphon, Vamp) because the runner can't just brute force it with money. Put something that's even mildly taxing in front of it and almost no runner will ever try to get through it by playing the psi-game.
>>
>>43467686
All that it's true, and all that would hold better if Wall of Static didn't beat it to the punch. 1 to rez, and at least another for the PSI. Increasing its cost every time. It should have been strength 4-5.

Counterpoint (though not counter-argument); it's a really, really fun piece of ICE in Nisei Division.
The volume of swearing I can get out of playing that ID.
>>
>>43470101
Ah yes, Nisei Division can actually pull it off, maybe even profit from it. It's like half Popup Window, half Wall of Static for them.
>>
>>43466691

It's great in some decks. I know I've really liked it in IG for one.

"You want to trash that snare! ? Are you sure you want to take another damage on top ? Not to mention he cost."
>>
I have to say, Adam is a tiny bit stressful to play vs Cybernetics Division.

Two card starting grip, ouch.
>>
>>43470961
I want to believe that playing CyDi just for the edge of reduced options is worth it, maybe some rush or fast advance. But every iteration of my decks were met with agenda flood and low econ.
>>
>>43471303

I must say these have been some of the shortest yet most tense games I've had in a long while.

Loving it.

I'm playing a burst Adam tailored for high risk short games, he's playing a CyDi with Mandatory Upgrades, Mushin no Shin and Media Blitz. And it's been brutal on and for both side.

We're going to swap decks now, just to see.
>>
Demo Derby (45 cards)
Adam: Compulsive Hacker

-- Event (13 cards)
3 Demolition Run
3 Dirty Laundry
3 Infiltration
1 Legwork
3 Sure Gamble

-- Hardware (4 cards)
3 Brain Chip
1 Plascrete Carapace

-- Program (11 cards)
1 Bug
2 Corroder
2 GS Shrike M2
1 Medium
3 Multithreader
2 ZU.13 Key Master

-- Resource (17 cards)
3 Armitage Codebusting
3 Daily Casts
3 Dr. Lovegood
3 Earthrise Hotel
2 Kati Jones
2 Public Sympathy
1 Utopia Shard

My refined Adam list. The early aggression is great, though an early Yagura is superbly irritating. I cut Maker's Eye for a Medium, it places pressure just by being around. As before, not having recursion sucks but I'd rather not cut the Utopia and Bug for a Plascrete and a Clone Chip. Maybe that's the better option, it's definitely a route I might go if I'm truly too vulnerable to kill decks. The breaker suite is solid, I think.
>>
>>43471667

Sometimes the fates just aren't with you.

CyDi rush deck with 10 agendas. Last 8 cards at the bottom of the deck are agendas.

At least made for an interesting game.
>>
>>43473041

How does the Kati - or the Armitages - fare for you with ABR ?

I'm kinda scared of too much click econ with Adam myself. Guess I've been burned on my first matches.
>>
>>43473072
I always try to include a single Showing Off when I play Medium. If I can dig for 5 cards from the bottom almost always I can find at least 1 agenda. It's great to avoid the old "All agendas at the bottom" situation.

>>43473041
I like Bug, do you find multithreader essential for it? I'm using MO for it but it's MU heavy (Box-E helps though)
>>
>>43473234

I love a single Showing Off when I play Anarch. Pretty decent slot if you run Medium, I agree.
A bit too rich for Adam's blood though.

>I like Bug, do you find multithreader essential for it? I'm using MO for it but it's MU heavy (Box-E helps though)

I like it too when I can get it going. Can really help maximizing efficiency of your runs.

When you compare with GlobalSec Security Clearance* - out of Sunny at least - I think its overall cost with MO isn't unfair/unbalanced. Still too expensive in high table tournament context I guess, because the deck lists are generally so well known you can approximate cards well enough on your own.

But for games with decks that are a bit more out there ? Or when your own build is *very* timing sensitive ? Can be pretty nice I find. Against my own better judgment.

*: just hit me"Global Security Security Clearance".

any advice for this deck? so far it's been pretty decent, and a hell of a lot of fun to play
>>
>>43474251
I just tried it against a random NEH Team Sponsorship deck on jinteki.net.
Got to 6 points, but spent way too many clicks drawing, especially after an archer killed corroder + zule.
I like the Always Be Running, but I'm not sure if the deck has enough run events really.
The card draw seems really expensive and reliant on combos. I think I'd rather just have John Masanori, maybe with security testing, too.
Being locked out of HQ really hurts this deck a lot. Maybe reduce the amount of Emergency Shutdowns or try a sneakdoor. Or a 1 off Feint?
>>
>>43474251
I'm also not extremely sure what to think of Comet in Ken.
I like the idea, but isn't Comet kinda antisynergetic with Ken? He only wants to play 1 run event per turn or he isn't using his ability efficiently. You could argue that the second event you play might not be a run event, but then again why don't you have more run events in your deck? Might as well play Gabe then.
