I love this new HB identity. I'm going to cry when Genesis and Spin phase out, cuz I'll have to break this deck up a bit and filter in some comparable replacements.
This is my 2nd iteration, as the previous version ran 2 ELPs instead of 2 Biotics. I realized, as I played against a Big Rig Sunny w/lots of link, that I needed a way to speed things up for myself. While I did score a VMI early on, that did little to deter the drip, draw and bypass abilities of my opponent.
I'd like to get some feedback from the community on whether this deck looks pretty solid, or if I need to rethink some things. I have the usual Foodcoats Sexybots for some taxing drip, reliable burst and versatile operations, and some brutal bioroid ICE for added flavor. Ash can be a pain, though when he phases out, I wonder if I should add in a couple Jeeves, or maybe Tyr's Hands...something for flavor but can be a thorn in the runner's side, too. Heinlein Grid is also a thought, perhaps.
The loss of Jackson Howard is going to be a bit rough, though Preemptive Action should take some of the sting away. Perhaps DBS or even Anonymous Tips...I mean, we guard Archives more closely now anyway, thanks to the emergence of Temujin Contract and other runner tech. I can see Eve getting replaced by Peak Efficiency or Private Contracts. NAPD becomes Merger, most likely.
As for the ICE...all I can say, is OUCH...major overhaul on the way for that one. That will likely be the most daunting task for me. I may even have to drop in a couple Lag Times, cuz damn if A) the loss of Eli won't hurt, and B) it won't be cool to make this discounted ICE seem like the runner is smashing into Stronger Together along the way! :)
For now, though, until the phase-out, if anyone sees anything I could do to make this fairly decent juggernaut even better, go ahead and drop me some feedback. :)

Marilyn Campaign and Advanced Assembly Lines can replace Adonis and Eve with little pain. I especially like AAL out of AoT because you can use it to get more ICE on the field at paid ability speed while masquerading as an unadvanced agenda, and you don't need the raw cash of the meatier campaigns. |

I completely forgot all about the new Campaign we're getting. AAL is also a recent favorite of mine, and it's kinda like an asset version of Lateral Growth, which also rules! No doubt those will make great additions and fill shoes admirably. |
Oops, Private Contracts is phasing as well...maybe just Melange or PADs then instead.
