Pre-rotation decklist |
The first thing you're gonna think when you see this deck is, "47 cards! How dare you?". Let me explain. When you're playing as MaxX, you're not going to want to draw cards. You're going to want to go fast. And what happens when you have a 45-card MaxX deck? You draw 5 cards at the start, leaving 40 cards in your deck. Thirteen turns of "Trash 2, Draw 1" later, you're down to 1 card in your deck. At this point, after a whole game of clickless draws, are you going to want to click to draw that last card? I think not. And what happens next turn? That card goes to the trash, never to be seen again. Such a shame.
But with 47 cards in your deck, you're left with 42 cards after your initial draw. That's a lovely multiple of three. 14 turns later, you trash two cards off the top of your stack and draw the last card, perfectly content with that last draw. Then you go on your merry way, run a server, and win the game. And that's where the deck's name comes from. Results in 14 turns or your money back.
0) Mash in all the recursion you can.
1) Go fast.
2) One emergency LARLA, in case you're playing a slow corp.
3) ???
4) Profit!
MaxX sets up brutally fast, at the cost of getting a random subset of her deck each game. So how do you get around that? By turning your heap into your hand. You could ignore recursion cards and just play whatever you're dealt, but I feel like the variance there will be too much for some people to stomach. So you just want to play multiples of everything and recursion for everything you want out of your heap.

Definitely an option, especially since Eater doesn't get in its way. The reason why it's not in the deck is because I didn't think of it while making the deck. :/ |

what about swapping legwork for wanton destruction? that gives you influence for a 3rd lucky find. |

Loved the deck. Made some changes....Added Keyhole instead of Medium since its great with eater for early aggression and its safer against Jinteki PE and the Weyland Argus. MaxX suffers so bad with damage, that I added a couple of steelskin too. |

Steelskin as passive damage defense is probably a great idea too. I'm not sure if you'd ever actually want to play it, though. |

Professor on MaxX: "She practically lives in the Levy Computer Lab. Doesn't even go to school here." |

I don't understand why not limit the flaw of the id by playing 3 special orders (sameoldthingables), i mean a MaxX deck is telegraphing retrieval runs so I bet the archive is gonna be protected, if you are forced to use clonechips for the breakers swordsman could become a pin in the ass, sure eater is there for those "istead of accessing" cards but hey you should have a way to fetch 'em! |

i would cut 2 lucky find for a 3rd day job and add 2 special order, special order. you would be 1 card over so why not cutting an icebraker for each type to go back to 45 and increase consistency, at the end of the day Larla is a must play, even for not slow corp decks. |
Clever! I like that you're using Spooner to Eat the Lotus Fields while parasiting the rest. I'm not sold on Sure Gamble here. What do you think of Dirty Laundry instead?
