Heads, score for me. Tails, die.

This deck is my take on the You Score, I Win deck by Lindbjerg.

I really like the concept of letting the opponent steal the agenda, then you take it back with Exchange of Information for a Domestic Sleepers. I also liked that there is a very good chance they will need 3 agendas to win, and you can win with 2. In an ideal world, this would all work every time, but we all know that this is not always the case. Hence my modifications below to try to cover some of the more common scenarios.

How to play?

So ideally mulligan (or Fast Track) for Domestic Sleepers. Score it. Then try to stay ahead of the economy game while waiting for the GFI or VP to show up. (eg. I've sacrificed a Jeeves Model Bioroids or tagged with Hard-Hitting News without a proper follow up, just to keep their economy down)

Then use the Operations that suit your needs: -Hard-Hitting News to Exchange of Information -Punitive Counterstrike if it gives you the kill.

Contingencies

-Consulting Visit is the MVP in that it can call up the winning Operation at the right time.
-Archived Memories helps you retrieve whatever Operation you need to fetch from archives. Which leads me to.... -Jeeves Model Bioroids lets you do all kinds of janky last minute things with your Operations, like:

  1. If your opponent doesn't steal the installed Global Food Initiative, you can always play Economy Operation, Biotic Labor, Biotic Labor, then advance 5 times.

  2. Falling behind on economy? Restructure > Archived Memories > Restructure > any other operation like:

Room for improvement

  1. I think the deck has just barely enough tagging options. A Prisec or two would be great.
  2. IMO, Ice can usually be adjusted to taste. I'm out of influence for a Data Raven or two (see no.1), unfortunately.
  3. Multiaccess wrecks your game if you are not careful. KNOW where your Vanity Project(s) are. At the very least, you should try not to keep all 3 in R&D. Jackson Howard of course will protect them in Archives. Scoring Domestic Sleepers early on helps to set you up for the Exchange of Information and take Vanity Project back. Etc...

Instead of Ichi 2.0, why not the new Sherlock 2.0? It does almost the same thing, but also gives a sure tag instead of a trace for a tag.
You have Restructure but not Hedge Fund? That seems off. I'd maybe swap the Blue Levels (and a singleton Consulting Visit, maybe?) for Hedges.

@tzeentchling Sherlock 2.0? Sure. Will definitely try that next time.

No Hedge Fund? Agree that it feels off. But because I was trying to include 6 Weyland cards to get Consulting Visit for no influence, and I was already going heavily for operations economy, I picked 3 Beanstalk Royalties. Restructure surprisingly, seemed to complement BR really well (plus, see contingencies above). Blue Level Clearance bridges the gap between the two operations, while helping with consistency with card draws.

I needed the 3 Consulting Visit for the consistency, because of the single Punitive Counterstrike and Exchange of Information, and the 2 Hard-Hitting News.

Really great and fun deck :) I played with it couple times and there were situation where i wanted to land a tag to exchange information but if i would do HHN the runner could just let the tag sticks and then on his turn remove them, i exchanged one HHN for sea source what do You think?

@wosho That certainly could work. I just really like the HHN tax. Need more tags? Recur HHN.
