[STARTUP] The Corp that you faced in the Sahasrara scoop

It's got Seraph! And The Holo Man! Wait, the scoop was on an Epiphany server? Crap.

Anyway, I wanted to play Sisyphus Protocol. So I played a money ID (with support for the trash mode of Sisyphus), added all the nasty ice I can find and The Holo Man to help score. AceEmpress also pivoted to this deck (going 2-1 and 3rd) with some minor changes (adding Boto, cutting an Enigma for Diviner) which I think might be generally better.

I brought this to the Netbrummers Startup Tournam3nt, for which I was also the TO, and came 8th (of 12). My Runner was "Pretty" Mercury.

All in all, the idea worked, and I got to score it! The money was almost too good - a previous draft of the deck was in A Teia which was a bit money-starved so I pivoted to Restoring Humanity at the last minute. Now there's possibly too much money - I would honestly consider swapping the Offworld Office into Fujii Asset Retrieval or Nisei MK II or cutting a money card somewhere.

The deck went 1-2. It won against a Tao that died to a Seraph backed up by two Sisyphus, and lost to a Seb that got a lot of quick accesses while I didn't find enough ice, and a Tao that stole five points in one early run. I think the deck is better than its record, but I would slot one more ice to avoid the issues of the Seb game where I had money but no ice.

I'm excited to keep playing this deck, because the look on people's faces whenever I score Sisyphus Protocol is gold.
