One Break

The idea here is simple--you can save money and make the corp waste money by only using one icebreaker. This is possible due to paintbrush, which will trade clicks to make more efficient runs. The best icebreaker for this is Gordian Blade--it's in-faction, keeps strength for the entire run, and is relatively cheap to get up and running.

Having made this decision (foolishly?) the rest of the deck is based around having a lot of other possibilities for getting programs (both tutoring through Self-Modifying Code and Test Run, and recursion through Clone Chips and Ar Levy Access). This does a few things: first, it allows you to run only one copy of Gordian Blade, since it effectively has 7x copies when searching for it the first time, and four copies that the corp must trash to stall you out--something that will be difficult to do since you will not face-check anything you can't break thanks to paintbrush. Similarly, the two copies of Replicator make this deck FAR smaller than it appears, since you can go and get the second copy of anything you want after it's installed, making it a smaller deck than it appears.

Having provided a way to both get and retain the two crucial tools--Gordian Blade + Paintbrush--the deck has two other main supports: 1) making runs cheaper, and 2) making runs more profitable.

Making runs cheaper is seen through the obvious: two data suckers and 3x personal touches. Each of these provides huge dividends over the course of the game. Similarly, the choice to run The Toolbox also gives clickless, recurring credits to fuel the one large run each turn, given even if the corp somehow gets 3x thick, non-code gate ice. To help facilitate this not happening, hold Escher in your hand to re-arrange ice where ever needed--this is huge as it can save you multiple clicks per turn.

Pressure comes through HQ Interface (looking at 4x cards per is awesome), Indexing, R&D Interface, and Keyhole. These combined together provide pressure to both HQ and RnD, giving two very easy ways to provide pressure and keep the Corp from defending the remote servers too heavily, allowing for easier snipes.

Economy comes from the obvious: clickless econ from daily casts, the awesome kati, and the no brainer Sure Gamble. The additional econ comes from Professional Contacts if you need to dig deep, otherwise card draw + econ comes from Motivation + Oracle May, or Post-Test Run + Oracle May--getting a card + 2 credits is huge.

This deck hates being tagged, so be careful of that. It may need some plascretes or something else thrown in, but you should be rich enough to beat traces if you play this right--remember, most runs will be free!
