Possibly the most horizontal HB deck I have ever tried playing. There is just no possible way for the runner to build a rig to tackle all the bioroids over centrals while trashing my econ assets while finding the Early Premieres that allow me to never-advance 5/3's and NAPD Contracts (that's a thing)... This deck snowballs in a way similar to Sexy Robot Factory, but can shell-game 5/3's.

Turtlebacks are a lot of fun here, and for only 3 influence let me double down on my identity and then some. Ronald Five and Encryption Protocol do awesome trashing prevention work. I think in this deck you'd expect Hostile Infrastructure, but I find Early Premiere plays out a more interesting game.

You are a tad ICE light to score out traditionally, but with the amount of taxing you are doing it's possible.

It might be smart to go up to 2 or even 3 Ash 2X3ZB9CY, as he's pretty much the only safe way to score out traditionally... but we aren't here to play it safe.

I would like to go down to 2x Jackson Howard and grab 1x Daily Business Show, because it rules in ETF. I haven't tested this yet, mostly because this deck really loves to draw 2 cards.

When PAD Factory comes out, it probably gets a slot here. That would save my money for installing and rezzing bioroids.

TL;DR, it's hilarious when almost every single one of your turns is rez assets, install 3 cards facedown, pass.

I like this deck a lot. Fun to play. Mind games without traps, its all about controlling the runners credits. Im finding it better with 3x Ash 2X3ZB9CY (removing 1x Green Level Clearance and 1x Blue Level Clearance) to ensure scoring traditionally is an option as sometimes the runner can keep up in trashing assets, especially when you get a bad start. You can also just use ash itself on a empty server, or another asset server for a decoy. If you've set up a pattern of never-advancing behind ice for 2 agendas, you can sneak your last agenda out on a naked server with an asset + ash decoy behind your scoring server.

Im considering getting rid of hudson for another wotan.

Hey @silenus, thanks for the comments. The Green and Blue Level Clearances are there for draw more than for money. I've been playing a version where I aggressively use Jackson Howard for draw, not just archives juggling. I replaced the blue clearances with Shipment from MirrorMorph, which has astonishingly increased my setup speed. I still wish there was more draw, but JHow is the best card for it right now.

I'd consider replacing the green clearance with another Ash for sure, that seems like a really good call.

I don't like two Wotan purely because he's both unique and very expensive; a combination which leaves me only ever wanting to rez one. With sysops and such it makes sense to pack a full set, but a single copy of a piece of ICE I may not even want/need if I see it seems unwise.

Ive been playing a slightly modified deck, lowering Green and Blue for 3x Tech Startup. I find it gives great utility; you can decide what it is after the runners turn and it will hit Turtles twice. Only bad side is its cheap trash, but you have cards to slow that at least.

Shipment from MirrorMorph is a great idea! Ill try putting some in.

With tech startup, its easier to hit jackson which means cards draws are a bit easier. And I find I can get away with 1 ash again.

I suggested Wotan because I feel like one big ice is not enough. In so many games I wish I had more (definitely had the money for it). I'm considering swapping a Early Premiere with a Tollbooth.
