Well Adjusted Free Spirit

Despite not playing Sure Gamble, this deck make sick amounts of money while also being able to put a fair bit of pressure on the corp early game thanks in part to Quetzal: Free Spirit's built-in fracter.

The Supplier is at the heart of your operation. You want to get this out as quickly as possible. After that, host as many resources and hardware on it as possible (33 of the 45 cards) so that you can start cranking a "when your turn begins" engine. Grab Paige Piper before setting up the genetics combo of Adjusted Chronotype, Hard at Work, Wyldside, Symmetrical Visage so you can weed out the pieces you don't need.

You know you've made it when you can do all of the following things when your turn begins: - install a hosted resource or hardware for free or cheap - gain 8 credits (Hard at Work combined with 3 Data Folding and Underworld Contact - draw two cards (at Wyldside)

Breakers are mostly standard stuff with Knight and and Overmind being your early aggressors. You can put out an early Overmind, but be sure to keep the other copy in your grip. After you get Deep Red and MemStrips up, you can install the second Overmind over the first, and you should be able to put around 10 power counters on it. That should be enough for the rest of the game (with e3 Feedback Implants as support) but if not, you can Déjà Vu for the Overmind in the heap.

After you draw your final card (and between Wyldside, Symmetrical Visage and Paige Piper, you WILL quickly plow through your deck), sell Wyldside to Aesop's Pawnshop and install a second Hard at Work. Now you're gaining 10 credits at the start of your turn! That's like an insane Stimhack that gives you credits you can use outside of a run and no brain damage afterward...each turn!

To close out a match, 4x Double Medium for a few turns and wreck R&D.

Great economy once it started. Once. Any FA deck will win before you have more than 10 credits on your bank.

If FA isn't dead, add Clot.

Wow, this looks like a fun way to play a big rig in Anarch, and 3 underworld 3 folding is nasty, not to mention the genetics combo. Not sure I understand what Symmetrical Visage is doing in there though. It gives you a credit when you use 1 click to draw 1 card, and it seems with Wyldside you won't be clicking to draw much. What am I missing?

It is pretty fun. Symmetrical Visage is nice because it allows you to draw through your deck even quicker. After you visit the Gene Conditioning Shoppe, you can make a run, draw draw, then host a card on The Supplier. Between that and Paige Piper, you'll be through your deck in no time.
