Midway Station Grid and the Grail ICE means a potential 3 extra credits the Runner must spend on each. Combined with the NEXT ICE, you have a very taxing run for the Runner that avoids D4v1d for the most part. The ICE is relatively cheap, but since there's a lot, we need a lot of econ to keep them in use. Enhanced Login Protocol adds even more taxation to the Runner, making them have to do one big run a turn. I've had some decent success with the deck on OCTGN, and even flatlined a few Runners with Merlin. I don't know how competitive the deck is, but it's pretty damn fun to play and certainly keeps the Runner on their toes.

why not swap the Beanstalk Royalties with Green Level Clearance and save 2 influence?

Because it's already in the deck.

I initially used the 2 extra influence on a Hive, but found that I needed more econ that needed minimal credits to play. Beanstalk Royalties has been a great addition so far.

I have a similar deck to this that's built on The Foundry: Refining the Process but I'm experiencing that I usually just end up trashing the Midway Station Grid. I can't as of yet tell whether if it's actually valuable. Have you had any use of it?

@Humanoids I've found it invaluable so far when I can get it out. When combined with Architect, it almost guarantees 2 extra that the Runner must pay or else I get more ICE out on the board. During one game I had on OCTGN I managed to get out 4 of the NEXT ICE. With NEXT Silver that's a bunch of credits the Runner had to pay each time they made a run. It even works with the Cerberus ICEbreakers out. And since it's an upgrade I can always plant an agenda there. I can't say enough good things about Midway Station Grid. When I can safely install it in a remote and R&D, it definitely works.

Have you tried finding room for Red Herrings? Putting that upgrade in your scoring server, with MSG as well means that NAPD is 7 credits to steal. If it's triple advanced at the time and you've already scored the Utopia, it goes up to 13 credits to steal.

How many ice does ABT usually find when you score it? Would a Project Vitruvius be more beneficial? The Grail ice is really weak to Parasite and Datasucker so getting the ice back (and in your hand!) could be immensely beneficial.

@magikot @WardOfTheWoods Not only Grail ice but NEXT Silver too!
