Total Denial Forever

Evil. Pure, unmitigated, maliciousness. I like it. Maybe a Crypsis for the odd remote?

Yup. Definitely love it. And you won't need a crypsis if you run remotes while the corp has no money. Hopefully. I guess a paper wall could happen.

Yeah, paper wall, and those times when you can't get them all the way to zero. Good insurance.

A very good point. I still need to playtest this archtype a bit more, I just ran this deck at the FLGS's netrunner night since we were taking it casual after the last regionals and had some opponents swearing at how stupid it is to be helpless under Lampreys.

Perhaps the alternate version (Gabe, with Cypsis instead of one of the Dejas) would be more effective...

Very interesting. How do you manage your memory ? If the corp puts different ice types on HQ you need different breakers out, limiting your lampreys / sneakdoor etc ? What are you priorities ? How do you pilot ? shifting rig ?

It's definitely a shift-ring deck. Sneakdoor and Keyhole are mutually exclusive installs, you rarely need all the central breakers to get this gig going, and even 1 Lamprey is brutal against zero ice: You can HQ lock an opponent this way pretty much, gaining 4 credits and them losing 4 every turn... plus all your accesses.

My priorities are to land siphon #1, and then hit whatever's weak. I would not attack R&D at all if I thought I could set the corp to zero, aside from deliberate emergency shutdown plays to drain more money.

Security Testing and Desperado are top priorities to install as I get them early.

You're running only eight Run events in the deck; I'm not sure the extra two influence is worth running Ken over Gabe. Still, I definitely like the idea. I'd love to take this deck out for a spin.

This deck is bloody murder. Please don't ever play me with it. :p

Gabe vs Ken is probably a wash. You'll get a fair amount more money as Gabe, but you shouldn't need it. While there are only 8 run events, three are Siphons, and you have enough recursion to play them nine times.

This is the deck that loses lives. Suffering, agony, and eternal netdamagefire await any who attempt to harness it's power.

Been running some matches with this deck, and collecting tweaks. Tenma throws people off a surprising lot. Gabe telegraphs that he's hitting HQ and will have Sneakdoor, but Tenma seems to get a turn or two longer of un-iced archives, which helps a good deal.

I actually hit a guy using paper wall on a remote. But Inside Job fixed that, I was fortunate to draw it next.

Only really had a need to super-Lamprey (2x Lamprey) once in four games. The other times, I had some lucky draws and was able to chain Siphon + vamp repeatedly with Keyholes in Memslot 4 and 5.

Tried it. It's really quite disgusting. Siphoned 7 times in a game. I don't know if Lamprey pulls its weight. Oftentimes you just make 1 run in HQ each turn, and as you go on siphoning the corp can't build credits fast enough and Lamprey feels almost detrimental. I don't think i ever pulled a Lamprey with Deja Vu , always Siphon siphon siphon. Except 1 time a carapace once a PSF was scored.

However i really hate central breakers. They are horribly inefficient and since Corp wil double ice HQ ASAP, they slow you down, most early game ICE cost 4 to break so you need to build up credits clicking to get the siphon train rolling. I've found myself too poor to install Desperado initially, and felt the breakers eat up siphon profits quite fast, therefore unable to Vamp. Further testing underway, would appreciate tips or comment. Uh i added a Legwork instead of a Planned Assault, with such an HQ focus it's a shame not having it.
