Kit² : one breaker to break them all

Manu l Humain 2

My first homemade deck : help welcome !

Early game : get Professional Contacts, econ and ZU to press all servers quickly and avoid rush. Mid/late game : put Gordian on Dinosaurus, SMC for Paintbrush.

All of the following is just IMHO, but I have won many tournaments & store champ events. =)

So, since you asked... You have far too many 1x cards. The key to winning is consistency. You should be able to count on getting the cards you want every time and as easily as possible.

I started to write this long comment / letter about which cards to drop or add. It just became easier to do put the deck together & show it to you –

netrunnerdb.com

I hope it helps & if you have any questions, please ask (This deck is untested, but I have played Rielle "Kit" Peddler: Transhuman for a long time and most of this is taken from proven / winning decks.)

I’m more a fan of Magnum Opus for my Economy than Kati Jones or Professional Contacts, but I wanted to stay as close to your original plan as possible. Also, with Torch you don’t "have" to have a console like Dinosaurus – but it is a fun card. (You can use it for Femme Fatale or Torch – which ever comes out later.)

Thanks a lot for your help, I just wrote to a friend about my deck : "You know it's a noob one by the occurence of 1x cards". ;) I think your deck is better, I just hesitate between multi-access trough event and trough hardware. I will maybe cut 1 TW and one R&D to fit a stimhack (I like this card) and a Levy (I'm maybe too careful).

Paintbrush was painfull to fit in, it's nice to be freed of it. Dinosaurus is maybe too expensive since I don't need it.

I'm glad you like it. Just curious... why do you feel you need Levy AR Lab Access? If you lost a program that's why Clone Chip or Test Run are available. Multi-access Events vs. Hardware is a personal call. Personally, I like that once I play a hardware multi-access card I will always have those accesses each time I check a server.

The Turning Wheel rewards you for all those times you make it in and see nothing. A single Stimhack goes back to my debate 1x card slot debate. Also, if you use Stimhack and only need 7 creds you have nothing to dump the remainder into, like Personal Workshop or you access zero agendas or zero items to then you just reduced your hand size permanently. (I have no problem with taking Brain Damage, but I want to be as efficient about it when I do. I have made whole decks w/ 3x Stimhack.)

Again.. everyone's Run style differ and this is just MHO. =)

Try it out on Jinteki.net and let me know what you think.

Oh! I guess if i was going to make another change I would have put in at least one Same Old Thing in my build to use for Scavenge. I love getting Torch out for 3 and also moving the Femme Fatale token all over the place. =)

What I would take out would be up to you. (1x Kati Jones or 2x Dinosaurus???)

GL!

Here my new version : Stimhack and Escher is just for fun, cut console because I just need 4MU, I wanted to need the smallest rig possible (I will not use Zu and Torch together). What do you think of modded to help install all that expensive hardware ?

In fact there are few changes but I thought a lot about them ! :D

18 Jul 2016 DarkMite2

Changing one or two cards is always a personal preference. Often in high level tournaments many of the "same" decks are being played but are just a couple cards different. It's all about how you like to Run. (Conservative / Aggressive / Lock-down / etc...)

What would you take out in place of Modded? I like the card & use it often, but not sure how to “squeeze” it in. =)

18 Jul 2016 Manu l Humain

Thanks fot your help : I like your deck, it's the kind of deck I wanted to build : small but tough and versatile rig, simple deck, easy to play ( I will try the combo with test run/scavenge and expensive breakers). I hope I can have a quick start thanks to Zu waiting to install the stronger breakers.

"What would you take out in place of Modded? I like the card & use it often, but not sure how to “squeeze” it in. =)" Yes that's the question : maybe 1 SMC and 1 TW. I don't like TW, I feel it to slow, but I know it can be powerfull...

I think some good old fashioned play testing may be in order to make those decisions. If you are on Jinteki.net in the evenings (CST) look me up and we can run some nets together. ID = DarkMite2

Ok, I'm not often on Jin but I will look you up.
