TWIY Purist Grail

Sysp 1259

The deck feels a bit dirty to play since it does fair things very unfairly since yellow cards are awesome.

NBN gets so many powerful cards for no influence (Sweeps Week, Jackson, Daily Business Show) that you can afford to run Grail ice which synergizes very neatly with the extra hand size from TWIY and the smaller deck size.

With all the draw and card selection in a small deck as well as a very healthy ice count and very few dead draws, the deck gets good mileage out of the slim economy package.

Data Raven is in there as a very taxing ice for central servers. I am currently running a single Closed Accounts which can be dug out and recurred if the runner goes tag-me but if they don't know the deck list they might be afraid to do so (though Scorched Earth should be off the table as soon as they see your Grail pieces).

I'm running Red Herrings instead of Midway Station Grid due to the cheaper rez cost. Even though Midway should continue to tax the runner in theory, it will almost always get trashed by the runner after a successful run. If Eater/Keyhole is big in your meta, it might be a good idea to run Midway instead to increase the tax on Keyhole runs but in balanced metas I would go with Herrings.
