4 click shutdown

jack3110 1

This deck came 1st in our store tournament. the whole idea is to bluff early Nisei MK II or just push it out behind a Quandary before they get there breaker out. As soon as you have the end run counter the game is as good as over you set up one main server with Ruhr Valley and you play Enhanced Login Protocol so unless they play two run events to bypass the Enhanced Login Protocol event it takes 4 clicks and even if they get to your server you have a Caprice Nisei or your end run token. you are looking to play Excalibur on all your servers so they have to look for another breaker or your remote is safe.

What do you mean, 'Excalibur on all your servers'? Excalibur is unique, only one can be rezzed. Rez another and you have to trash the previously rezzed one. Also where are the Sundews?

I like your combo of Ruhr Valley with Enhanced Login Protocol, but with that in place, shouldn't more asset economy be a stronger bet? Setting out naked Sundew while Enhanced Login Protocol is in effect basically challenges the runner to spend their whole turn hitting one central server and trashing your Sundew at the cost of one click, or let your economy run away.

I don't think I like Bullfrog very much. It's a fun trick once, but you don't have a lot of ICE to push the runner into. Some ICE to punish the runner with net damage like Neural Katana or drain the runner's econ with Datapike to force the runner to spend extra clicks recovering after a run may be more beneficial.

Without some card draw from operations or even Jackson Howard I'm not sure I like Ashigaru. A Bastion may be a better option for a barrier. Bear in mind that your main ETR ICE is all strength 4, leaving you open to Atman breaking your servers.
