Builder of yellow Nations

Krams 949

I made a complete rework of my old deck Builder of advanceable meat tags.

I got rid of half of the advanceable ICE, but kept a reasonable amount that allows me to use my ID ability without using PAD Factories or anything like that.

The economy works much better now thanks to Oaktown and Beanstalk (and cheaper ICE).

Also, I got rid of Exchange of Information as I never really used it. Currently I'm testing Media Blitz as a replacement. It works without having to score, it can overwrite enemy currents and it doesn't require a tag.

And I'm testing Casting Call vs. Hard-Hitting News vs. News Team as tagging tool.

I'm still not sure if I should try to make room for 1-2 Zealous Judges to keep the runner tagged now that I can't drown them in tags anymore since I ditchen HHN.

I'm interested in why the plan is Crisis Management + The Cleaners + tag hell instead of just Scorched Earth and be done with it.

The Cleaners also synergizes with Prisec and ID meat damage. (And with Checkpoint and DRT, but those turned out to be not very useful...).
The idea is basically a Weyland 1000 cuts, where you deal constant meat damage with the ID ability to slow the runner down. In the meantime you can build up defenses and score out. Most games are actually won by points. The flatline only really happens when the runner runs out of cards.
Crisis Management is a relatively easy way to punish the runner for ending his turn tagged without putting too much effort (card slots, s and s to play operations) into it. If the runner ever gets into the situation of floating in tags and suffering 2 meat damage per turn for it, he really has to struggle to keep going between drawing cards and clearing tags.

I like the idea of this deck, I just not sure how often the runner will stay tag, but I want to try it out

After trying it for a few times, It went good but I never actually won (probably my fault). I never seem to use melage that much, mostly because I needed actions to advance my ice but maybe I should have skip a few turn and just melage...

But I did like the Media blitz and casting call, Just think it impossible to actually score out a cleaners. Good games all around though, they were close games, so I mostly fault myself more then the deck.
