Punitive Infrastructure

cassafrass 3

Bah, I waited too long to publish this one! I'm glad someone else has found a lot of success with the same kind of deck independently (http://netrunnerdb.com/en/decklist/22727/bag-of-tricks-2nd-oslo-regionals-undefeated-8-0-top-seed), though!

A few differences from the above decklist:

  • More overwriters & punitives. I want lots of brain & meat damage, in addition to net damage.
  • 3x Shock!. R&D is usually going to be mostly undefended, and this is a good, cheap way to defend it.
  • Hostile Infrastructure. Expensive to rez, but I'm not using ICE for the most part, so money from that funnels nicely into this.
  • Celebrity Gift instead of Medical Whatever. Giving the runner money works very poorly (heh) with Punitive, though otherwise you don't really care about the runner's finances.

I've been considering swapping out some of the ice in this deck in a way similar to Bag of Tricks' setup, especially wrt lockdown and kitsune. I also think I want a copy of Crick in there. I like Komainu in this kind of deck, but everyone's running parasite these days and it's so expensive to rez, so I think I'm going to keep not running it.
