>What would you do to make Criminals relevant again?

Give them a workable AI breaker or reusable bypass effect. Anarch is strong right now from having Eater and Faust allowing them a bunch of extra deck space for other things.

Security Nexus is the kind of thing that Criminal needs in faction to really become a powerhouse again.

That said I think the devs are scared of Crim becoming big again since that will just push us back into the Account Siphon forever meta.

considering something like 3 of 10 Weyland cards for the cycle have been spoiled

I'm not going to comment, because there's not enough information. Essentially, FFG is going to fix Weyland in Mumbad or I am quitting.
>>
>>44442304
Mumbad was the last cycle designed by Lukas, just before Damon takes over. And Lukas did say that he hope that Damon fixes whatever is Weyland missing. So I wouldn't put many expectations on Mumbad Weyland really.
>>
>>44442301
What might a Criminal AI breaker look like? Alias/Breach/Passport in one? Something that works like Knight or Femme Fatale?
>>
>>44442145
Consider Executive Boot Camp, Worlds Plaza and Surat City Grid. They appear to be reviving the Amazon Industrial Grid discount idea, which could be interesting. Turning the shadowy megacorp into an open info dare. You'll lose a fair amount of bluffing potential, but then Weyland hasn't had good bluffing shenanigans in a while. It seems to do work for glacier Weyland, I suppose, so I'm tentatively optimistic.

One with high install cost, medium STR, and 3 credits to break 2 subroutines

>>44442565
So just straight-up expensive
>>
>>44442565
Ugh.
>>
>>44442145
NBN: The control archetype will move from T3 to maybe T1.5. Aryabhata Tech enables the entire "Trace Storm" deck archetype and I think will shoot it to T1 easily.

Weyland: No fucking idea.

Jinteki: Does not seem like much is going to change for them. None of their spoiled cards are really deck defining. Their 4-3 has the best chance of effecting their meta.

HB: Bioroids are getting massive love. Jeeves is hugely powerful and will be showing up in most decks likely. Lateral Growth is a massive boost to early game ICE play. Over all most their decks are just going to get better. Some of their new ICE really push the super server focused play with nasty upgrades.

Corp Overall: I think Corp play is going to slow down. Mumbad has a fair number of more control focused cards and I think that will have a big effect on the Runner meta over all.

------

Anarch: Mill style play is going to get more options. ICE kill focused decks are getting a little love so I am thinking that "no" Breaker Mill decks are going to become a thing.

Crim: Does not seem to be getting anything really playable. Political Operative is the best spoiled card for them but even then it will be splashed into other decks if it ends up being a major thing.

Shaper: So far we have just seen action compression/utility cards so I am not sure where they are heading with it. The Price of Freedom will likely get space.

Runner Overall: Mostly it feels like Runners are getting cards to deal with Rotation in 2017. Many of the cards we are seeing are alt options to popular cards in the meta right now. I think at most the Runner meta will shift to deal with new control focused Corp decks (mostly NBN).
>>
>>44442525
I think Femme Fatale is the criminal AI breaker. Straight up bypass a single piece of ICE.
>>
>>44442525
Expensive
Use once per turn
5(+) credits: Bypass a piece of ice

But I think AI and recursion are just not criminal things - are there any non-crim bypass cards?
That seems to be what they got to make up for it, along with expose, maybe (though like AI, there's neutral expose)
>>
>>44442525
I'd think something like:
x: Bypass currently encountered ICE. You can not access more then one card during this run.
X is the STR for the ICE plus 2.

Honestly, I think the problem is the other way around
Both the criminal and weyland specialities are, in general terms, very good:
Weyland's ice makes them money and criminals get paid for successful runs.
Weyland doesn't have to install new ice, it can just make its existing ice better, while criminals can ignore ice completely with bypassing
Weyland specialise in destroyers, while criminals have some of the best killers in the game
Both sides use denial tactics - derezzing ice can be as bad as destroying it, while weyland uses trashing (and flatling) effects
Criminals can get things without having to run the server its in, and Weyland's idea of a defensive upgrade just straight up doesn't let the runner hit it
Both have a common flaw in expensive cards, but are great at making money
Both have some tutoring, and prefer that to just searching by drawing

All these are strong things, that if given just a few too many better-than-average cards could be ridiculously OP, and as you say, the front loading with some seriously strong cards, which take up huge amounts of influence, doesn't help them - their cards are weak because the things they do are strong
>>
>>44443154
Actually, I always thought Conquest looked like LoL in LCG format.
>>
>>44443113

Political Operative and Councilman are great for the runner.

That indirectly fucks over NBN (Keegan), Jinteki (Batty, Caprice) and HB (Ash). Weyland... doesn't have the greatest anti-run sysops. Except for the Twins, but whatever.
>>
>>44443173
The main problem with buffing ICE is that ICE is just so easy to remove that most the time it is a pointless waste of time.
>>
>>44443204
Councilman works on Keegan Lane but Political Operative does not. Same with Batty.
>>
>>44443231

Why wouldn't Political Operative, if you already have him installed?

The runner's trash abilities take precedence over the corp's trash abilities during the runner's turn.

Is there something in the timing I'm missing?

True that, usually when Keegan and Batty are rezzed they are immediatelly trashed. No window for political moves.
Drive-By is still good though.
>>
>>44443219

Patch should have been printed "+2 STR, if hosted ice is trashed, deal 2 meat damage to runner." Maybe price it at 1 instead of 0.
>>
>>44443280
Yeah, you're missing that the rezzing and abilities all happens in the same window, and it doesn't go back to the runner until the Corp has finished.

>>44443295
That actually sounds great. I don't know if Meat, but something for sure.

I'd even take "Hosted card gets +2 Str and can't be trashed"
>>
>>44443173
Yes and no.

>Weyland makes existing ice better and Crims bypass
Advancing ice doesn't have a big enough payoff when ice destruction is so prevalent. The amount of investment for the amount of returns is frankly awful. Criminal bypass is nice, but limited in the form of Inside Job and... Feint? Femme, certainly, but 9c is no joke. Admittedly Femme is really good, and I like it and Inside Job very much, but bypass isn't quite as flexible as it needs to be for optimal effect.

>Weyland destroyers, Criminals killers
I like Weyland's specialisation in destroyers, but apart from Archer, the rest aren't too good. Nebula was a nice try, Lycan was overcosted, Grim isn't even Weyland. I feel like Grim could have been Weyland. As for Crims, the thing is that even the best killers in the game still aren't very good. Faerie's great though, and I'm fond of Mongoose. Mimic dominates in tandem with David or Sharpshooter + Clone Chips.

>denial tactics
Derezzing is cute, but destruction is currently easier and more impactful. It negates the possibility of the Corp regaining their tempo and rezzing again. I guess Weyland's Power Shutdown is pretty good, I'll give them that, but the necessity of trashing R&D hurts.

>Weyland's defensive upgrades
Are practically nonexistent. Off the Grid is superb if you have the money, but if you're behind, it's rubbish. Contrast with Caprice, who is equally good whether you're ahead or behind, and Ash, who is a decent tax when you're behind and gets better the further you pull ahead. Twins could have been more.

>great at making money
This was once true. It no longer isn't.

>tutoring
Shapers tutor better and raw draw better than Crims. Weyland has Atlas, which is great but relies on you being able to overadvance your Atlas to begin with (unless you're Titan).

All in all, they could be better, especially given the raw power being given to the other factions. Just look at Anarchs and NBN.
>>
>>44443383
Traps that can't be trashed. Like Universal Connectivity Fee.

Anybody tried a Troll in a Heinlein Grid server?
>>
>>44443219
True - and it's the click cost in particular that really sucks

The point I was making is that it would be oh so easy for it to be OP, especially if ice trashing wasn't so big
>>
Ok fine.

Man FFG has been picking up some strange IP's lately.
I wonder how the game will play. Pick 1-5 Champions, fight at locations, get gear?
I am guess in 1v1 you each play 5 Champs and 5v5 each person plays one.

It will be interesting to see what comes out of such a great IP.
>>
>>44443531
>such a great IP.
Right there you went too far anon
>>
>>44443425
Somewhat missing my point - it's not that they're things that they do and are good *right now*, it's that those are things that are generally strong, which is part of the reason the actual cards doing those things aren't so great

Clearly, the balance isn't right - just strong effects is no good if the overall card is crap, but the strength of their sections of the "colour pie" is very high (though HB's is probably the best in terms of that on the corp side)
>>
>What would you do to make Criminals relevant again?

An AI that forbids you to steal when used, but allows access ?

An AI that allows the corp to rez a card ignoring all costs if used during a run, once the run is over ?

Caïssa like cards that allow you to bypass ICE on which they're hosted, limited by ICE types.

Sneakdoor Beta from remotes, forcing the corp into having strong remotes, or an opened HQ.
>>
>>44444157
>Caïssa like cards that allow you to bypass ICE on which they're hosted, limited by ICE types.
I like the sound of that one.
>>
>>44444157
What about an AI that only allows you to access cards that have been revealed/exposed this turn.
>>
>>44444280

Resource Connection Unique
Once per run, you may bypass a piece of ICE previously exposed in the turn.

I love the idea of giving expose a secondary use/power.

>>44443383

I think trashing prevention would be stronger than the damages.
>>
>>44444230
>>44444157
I think a requirement to have broken the ice on the turn you install it might make such a program more balanced - a big cost would also do the job, though that's a less attractive option - perhaps limited use, through counters or trash-to-use?

I think "install only on a [ice type] only after breaking all the subroutines of that ice during a single encounter this turn" would work well with the Cloud breakers and Grappling Hook
>>
>>44443425
>This was once true. It no longer is.

Been playing Spark Agency a lot before my my thankfully soon to been ended involuntary Netrunner abstinence month, and it made me think about something.

It seems to me not only, as I've been saying since the Genesis cycle and I think it still holds, Weyland's taxing game isn't up to par - which I was originally OK with, given it was more NBN shtick in Core, Wyland is sometimes even struggling right now to *make* money when compared to other corps.

We've reached the point where almost anything you might want to do with Weyland from a strategic standpoint, you can do better with other corps really. Especially NBN. But not limited.

What does Weyland still have right now? Rush? but then those are still almost influence neutral really... Some glacier builds I guess?

There are bits and pieces of interesting builds that *are* Weyland, but still nothing conclusive by a conjunction of missing pieces and overcautious card design I would say.
>>
Oh boy you guys are in from some amazing times in Mumbad.

>>44444723

>>
>>44444716

I'm a bit unfair in my estimation I guess. Some dedicated builds I've been literally rolling in Weyland credits, if keeping fair.

But that's the kickers really; those have been decks that were *all* about making money.
>>
>>44444723
Even if it was real it'd be trash. You'd need to find it and score it before you can really even start doing anything in a deck based around it.
Scoring 3-1s is just about the hardest thing to do in this game so fuck dat, fuck you, fuck FFG, fuck my mom who won't let me ride the bus to events, fuck all of this, imma kill myself.

I'm so in love with that idea of using Batty + Architect to install ICE and/or Edge of Worlds a 4.3 during a run.

Depends what you mean by working.

Competitively? I don't think so, or if happens, it will because of complementary cards that probably *won't* be PSI themselves.
The PSI cards are pretty decent too good in general I find, but they go in several different directions design wise.

If you mean working in able to win games decently well as long as you know to pilot it, I think it's about there already.

For those who can't tell this is Kromiagoi, a language from middle Africa.

It says something like: This card is the runner version of Architect, great in it's own right and fucks so many decks that it fucks anyone that wants to fuck around with new ideas.
>>
>>44447418

For some weird reason, a lot of people hardly play most counter cards, but their very existence makes it so they don't play the builds being countered either.
>>
>>44447663
Netrunner competitive meta is a lot like a wet back stand off. People are all so scared of being countered that no one runs decks that have counters, but people are so scared of being fucked over by no one running the counter-able decks that no one runs the counters to counter them. So then you get people like Dan "The Man who Fucks" D'argenio who just rolls in with a well known easy to counter deck and shoots people down left and right.

Ok, I'm a bit conflicted here, what happens if you fire Bullfrog's subroutine from a Wormhole?

Wormhole moves, the run ends. Text the effecting the run ends. Text to Bullfrog, and that fragrances out to affect. So Wormhole moves to affect.

Probably Honor and Profit. If you want bluff and traps there's no better than that box. Although I always recommend buying Creation and Control first because it overhauls the entire shaper paradigm, along with bringing recursion to every faction.

All corps crave the Jacksons, also Celebrity Gift is an amazing econ card if you can use it properly so Opening Moves would add a lot of versatility, especially if you decide to try another corp and end up liking it more (I drift from corp to corp myself).

They deleted the thread but it came down to a bunch of event managers in the EU banning white males from any ANR Pro Circuit events since they made women and PoC feel unsafe.

Then some dude claimed he was felt his wife was raped by some dude hitting on her during the down time at a match (she was too scared to just say she was with someone and ask him to go away I guess) and it just blew up.

Then ANR Pro Circuit released a new set of floor rules that more or less told white men to not interact with anyone or get kicked out.

How was your last match of the year /tg/?


My last match of the year was a friendly match between my Quetzal Faust and Grail Chronos Protocol against ADAM and Foodcoats. Pretty cool match to end the year, very close both of them.
Some highlights.
My turntable wasn't needed but I was ready to swap any GFI he managed to score. Faust along with 2 early Spoilers I installed that got me a couple trashed agendas from R&D carried me to victory. The other 2 agendas were liberated by painstakingly going through a 4-5 deep server made with ABT, thrice. (First time was an aggressive secretary that trashed a early Medium). Turing, Heimdall, and Ichi among others. God bless D4v1d and E3.

Corp side, I completely forgot that Adam players try to mulligan for Public Sympathy, so when first turn I played Targeted Marketing I named Sure Gamble instead of Public Sympathy. My mistake, Good lesson.
Regretably how I set up Batty for Lancelot to trash his Mimic, but mid-way completely forgot about it. He was low on credits so in the end I didn't need to use Batty at all. Managed to score the last Future Perfect when he used Infiltration to peek at the card and then run 3rd click, disabling his Always Be Running perk in the process.
>>

Because one has to end the year on a high note... Helium-3 Deposit deck. And Apex.

>>44466065
I just read that thread and holy shit. Holy shit. Literally a whole forum of nitwits getting upset over a dude who doesn't realise that he's being too friendly. And the guy complaining doesn't say anything. And as the thread progresses, we find out that using verbs for Kati is not allowed because of possible innuendo. WHAT. And then bullshit hypocrisy gets pointed out, and the response is that women are marginalised, others are not. Fuck that. Women don't play Netrunner because they're not interested in it or they've never heard of it. Not because they think they'll get hit on during Netrunner night. Just make it clear you're not up for getting hit on! Lordy Lou, the amount of bullshit in that thread makes me want to puke.

Tollbooth:

I'm arguing it goes to the corp, my friend says the bank. I've looked online at other forms and the consensus seems to be it goes to the "bank". Are those people also correct?

Yup, money goes to the bank.

>>44475975
Unless specified, all costs paid are to the bank.

Otherwise ELP would give the Corp can extra click.

My friend and I are both still new to the game, and all we've got is the core and the first two deluxe expansions. I was running as Ken Tenma, versus Harmony Medtech. My opening hand was:
Early Bird
Dirty Laundry
Daily Casts
Legwork
Theophilius Bagbiter

I decided to throw caution to the winds and play everything. Early bird to run on R&D (didn't help), got the credit back because of Ken Tenma's ability. Dirty laundry run on a remote server that turned out to be an upgrade that I couldn't afford to trash. After that I played daily casts, followed by a Legwork run on HQ. Harmony Medtech chose (or maybe couldn't afford) to rez the ice, so the run was successful and I got to access 3. If I remember correctly, the first card was Shi.Kyuu, and I had to take the negative point. The next card was House of Knives, so that balanced out Shi.Kyuu. The third card was an ice or something. Finally, with my last 3 credits I played Theophilius Bagbiter. That left me with zero cards, zero credits, zero max hand size, and zero points.

I still won.
>>
>>44479545
I'm thinking that I'm terrified of playing Bagbiter and then get Closed Accounts and lose everything.
But why nobody plays Closed Accounts anymore? Is it because it's all drug dealer money anyway?
>>
>>44481048
I think it's because killing the Runner is always more profitable than just closing their bank accounts. Which is kind of sad.
I personally do play closed accounts in my Haarpsichord deck.
>>
So, I really want the Day Job playmat and I'm willing to stop playing jank for it. I'll start the 2016 league with Fastrobiotics, but what Runner should I play? I don't intend to play DLR Val or PPvP Kate. Maybe Noise?
>>
>>44481307
Let me get this straight, you're trying to get first place in a league playing a 2014 archetype that relies heavily on topdecking back when Clot wasn't a thing? You'd be better off with haapr butchershop, since the pressure is real; or Foodcoats, because denying points while creating heavily taxing servers is really the way to go.

Also yes, Noise is always a solid choice. But keep in mind how is your meta.
>>
>>44481369
Tbh I'm not considering Foodcoats cos I spent a month and a half with it prepping for Nationals. Kinda sick of it. My meta is pretty jank, which is why I wasn't too concerned about Clot. Haarp Butchershop might be okay, but there's so much meat damage protection I feel like speeding up is the better option in case they expect me to kill.

>>
>>44483708
What the fuck.
>>
>>44483678
-6 inf if you run 3 Clonechips and 3 Parasites.
This entirely changes how I value ICE.

NBN FA is hit fairly hard but I think it will just push people into tag based Psychographics decks over Biotic Labor decks.

Eli 1.0 will likely not see play much anymore. It is just not worth 3 effect inf in most decks. It does rise the value of NEXT ICE in HB as well.

Overall I think the biggest deal is Clone Chip. It is such a core card to so many Runner decks that losing it will change things massively. Might even make Rig Killer decks better.

All in all this is a huge change to the meta and i am loving it.
>>
Is the board getting jammed or something?
>>
>>44483770
NEH Butchershop, RP are barely affected, but every single runner got pretty badly gutted.

>>44483817

>>44483827
RP has been dead for awhile and is getting even more counter cards next cycle.

Butchershop is hardly as bad the FA decks and there are already decent counters to it in the pool. Also more counters coming next cycle.
>>
>>44483817
>All in all this is a huge change to the meta and i am loving it.

Yeah, I'm liking this at first sight. Kinda weirded out about Lady being in there.
The card is good. I just don't think Parasite or Clone Chip good.

And, again, Datasucker not being there. Oh well, I guess they did their maths.

>>44483769
That makes no sense. If a card takes you below 1, you include it anyway? What?
>>
>>44484423
It does make sense, you're just thinking about the rule backwards. It's a limit on when to apply the restriction, not another restriction.

That's what I'm saying, you apply the rule while you can, but when you reach the bottom, just say "fuck it, all in".
Say, Kit with 3 clone chips, 3 lady, 3 PPVP gets her printed influence down to 1. At this point, if she includes Yog her printed influence gets down to 0, only that it doesn't, it remains 1, enough to include that Yog.

So this is the nerf to insta-parasite - it makes your influence cry like a bitch.

I like it - not sure all of them were completely necessary (San San, for example), but it doesn't seem like a terrible way to do it

Also, the Professor needs some kind of recognition that he, alone of all the runners, does not give a flying fuck about the "NAPD most wanted list"

Also WNP being unique makes me oh so happy - no more paying a shitton just to knock out a single Fall Guy

At 4 influence she's okay as she is - Jinkeki get her because their ice is swiss cheese (especially with Eli and Architect on the list), but everyone else has to sacrifice a lot of inf for her

San San might have been a bit excessive, but with all the 2/1s and 3/2s in NBN I can just about see the need

>NOOB QUESTION
im playing as corp against my friend and he runs my R&D. He pulls a snare!. I then go to do my net damage to him (i think thats its effect?) and he tells me that he wants to trash it. Who gets priority here?

I told him that it would only make sense for me to have it here because it has an effect specifically for that situation. But he tells me that it has a trash cost, and there's no reason to have if he wasn't able to do it.
>>
>>44486467
Ambushes immediately occur on access so long as the corp can fulfil the requirements of the trigger. Otherwise they would be literally pointless, as they all have low to 0 trash costs.

Reporting in again. I removed crypsis and a few other cards from my deck, so I'm very light on icebreakers. I also dropped Theophilius because it's never been beneficial. Pic related is what I'm currently running. I'm sure it's lacking hugely in some area, but with only one person to play against it's hard to tell.

ok cool, that makes more sense than what I told my friend. thx bruh

Also bear in mind prevent effects are also the exception to the usual 'Active player's effects happen first' rule. "Prevent" effects are retroactive and can be used during the other player's train of paid effects.

My sides at all the butthurt over at plebbit upset that Damon 'has-the-Stones' curbed some serious bullshit that has been rife for a long time.

>>44486752
I see what you're aiming for in your breaker suite. All keep their strength for the duration of a run, so you don't have to boost them twice for the same strength during a run.
Problem is, they are all pretty expensive to boost to begin with. So you must be having a hard time keeping your econ afloat.
Cloak is an odd choice. You're not playing stealth, so this is a recurring credit just for the sake of it. Personally I'd use cyberfeeders instead, it's also less influence.
A single console is also not common, usually you want 2-3 consoles to see it as soon as possible.
Same Old Thing is also common to replay any event in your heap (ahem account siphon ahem inside job).

I am kind of annoyed that they hit both Astro and SanSan.
I thought fast advance was already outmatched by buttchershop?

Meat Damage decks already have good counters in the meta. Now that we don't have as many auto includes like Clone Chip and Parasite people will run them again.

Given the state of recursion in some factions, I'm not sure this is a good thing.

I'm a bit nervous about Same Old Thing because it takes a lot of clicks to use.

Crim is the only one that has massive issues in faction. Anarch has Daja Vu and Trope.

>>44488948
Wasn't that more Butchershop being just a little better, not FA being countered by what the runner was doing?

Also, as >>44489076 points out, there are fairly good meat damage counters around

Lady has no business being there. It can't stand on its own and you will either need to recur it or fish for another one over the course of the game, on top of a 4 install cost.

Are you fucking kidding me.

Trying to make shittier cards playable by hurting the good cards isn't the best way to encourage more card diversity imo. Now that the rotation has been declared, they could just print better cards to get ready for the cycling out of older cards. Something about having to "pay' influence for in-faction cards seems kinda dumb too, especially considering how signature to a faction some of these cards are, like Desperado or Parasite.

Shaper has no business having the best barrier breaker. Quit being butthurt that someone kicked your sandcastle.

Good Stuff Andy seems to not have been hit.
Are we going back to the 2013/2014 meta?
>>
>>44492128
no
>>
>>44492128

Desperado is on the list, which is pretty bad even if it does 'encourage' the use of other consoles.
>>
>>44492238
BOX-E is not awful and can be used for a fair number of decks. But over all I think Andy might be worth looking at again.
>>
>>44492438
especially with Rebirth coming up later on

>>44491573
Battering Ram was here before Lady. It might be not "2 to install, 1 MU", but it breaks consecutives barriers only second best to Morning Star. It ties in breaking costs with Corroder for all except gearcheck barriers, and you can just play Inti for that.

Lady is just like Battering Ram. It fills a niche and requires support to work properly. And we all know that Shaper is the toolbox faction with a program for every niche.

So yes, Shaper has business having the best barrier breaker in this case.
>>
Parasite being fucked at least makes all those other ICE killer cards more interesting to look at.

Architect seeing less play also means that Apex will get a fair boost in power.

Okay, so apparently the whinefest in Stimhack is now bitching about Security Nexus. How is this card ever a problem?
>>
>>44494388
I have been facing it a fair bit on Jinteki.net. It is much better then you'd think at first. Get a little link and it is like a better free inside job. Mix it with something like Faust and and drip Econ (since you are running link anyways) and it is fairly strong.

>How was your last match of the year /tg/?

Last game of the year; Kit vs Helium-3 Gagarin, lost on a 6 cards deep dig with two agendas. Expected, but disappointing (weirdly, my best match up of the night was against Valencia, which I actually beat twice).

Then Next vs Apex. One of the most fun I've had in a while. Corp started with 3 ICE in hand, managed to score an early Accelerated Beta Test with three ICE revealed, and then I Apocalypsed. Tight rush match, but I managed to keep the pressure and ended up winning 7-2, with arguably one really lucky score mid game.

All in all, great night very heated but polite debate about the new rulings, with as almost invariably a clear competitive/non-competitive divide.
>>
>>44494536
I agree with everything this guy said. Especially that middle part. Cool analysis.

>>44494270

Given the history of the /anrg, the fact that they're playing Jyhad/V:TES made me chuckle.

Keyhole Val VS PE Jinteki using the NAPD MWL rules.

Had to remove my Desperados but ended up keeping all my Clone Chips and Parasites. Trying Box-E as my replacement.

They got out a early Agenda while I was setting up my DDOS attack. Ended up getting 3 turns of 3-4 Keyhole runs a turn early game. By the time they got RnD locked down it was too late and I just had to do Keyhole Pokes till I loaded up the final Agenda in Archives.

Nothing like seeing the light fade in someones eyes after you make them shuffle for the 6th time.

>Trying Box-E as my replacement.
Keyhole? DDoS? Parasites? May I suggest Doppelganger for extra-annoyance? I don't know how much influence you got for it though.
>>
>>44495289
2 Box-E cost me 2 inf. That is all I have to spend on consoles (Only spending 9 Inf in the deck after losing 6 to Parasite and Clone Chip's new rule).

It is not really that bad since the MU helps for having more then one Parasite out at once and the hand size is nice for after I blow at Amped Up or two.

I tired cutting the Clone Chip but it is just too central to the "Draw it all and let Clone Chip sort it out" play style this deck needs. Losing Desperado sucks MASSIVELY since it allowed me to just go full dick mode on remotes.
I toyed with the idea of Grimoire some and then maybe tossing in 2 Cache or something. But I am not sure if it'd be worth it.

>>44495558
Oh, I wasn't dissing Box-E. I love the extra hand and memory, specially along with Faust to keep an even larger hand. I just thought that the extra run might help a lot for Keyholing.

In your case I agree that it synergies nicely with Amped Up. Not sure about Dirty Laundry without Desperado, but it probably helps keeping the pressure.

I have nothing to add to your deck, just that I'll probably try it myself next week because it looks fun. Probably adding Mimics because Architect is too much loved to be dropped just for the extra influence.
