Tenma - Piling on

djackman 982

The reason criminal is strong isn't really about the ID, its the blue card pool. This deck intends to make use of that. This isn't a big departure, but Gabe was already very good - If it ain't broke, etc etc.

The two strongest cards in this deck are Planned attack and Special Order. This list features a suite of 1-ofs for these tutors, taking advantage of tenmas economical aggression as well as those two extra influence points.

21 cards allow for tenmas ID to fire (when you include planned attack). There are 6 seperate targets for special order, and 10 targets for Planned attack (when you exclude early bird). The extra influence allows us to run a Retrieval run, which is dual purpose - it allows for cheating out a Femme, and serves as program recursion, which helps to shore up criminals weakness against program trash.

Events like indexing and Siphon are devestating when played at the right time. Planned attack gives you the flexibility to capitalize on these windows.

If you can slot it, Security test is great because it brings gabe's ability to every server on your whim, and synergizes with knight. Express delivery would help with finding what you need, and requires little investment. I don't know what you cut for them, but those are 2 strong adds.

I dont think Security Test is right - I dont think its better econ than surge gamble, dirty laundry, siphon or desperado in this list, and having some unconditional econ (in the form of armitage) was something i think is important.

I had forgotten about express delivery - though I'd have to figure out what to cut. Good idea though.
