I make the rules 1.0

So, this is a deck I made with the aim of changing the dynamic of the game itself. The usual approach (by the netrunner side) is to start a run on the servers, remote ones or central ones, break all ICE subroutines and finally access the cards (R&D, HQ, Archives or installed cards) and thus steal agendas.

What I want to do is to play in a way completely different, by exploiting Notoriety and Quest Completed, and so to run only on central server. To have an easy work I rely on three nice icebreakers which fit perfectly this strat: Alias, Breach and Passport. They are usually cheap icebreaker, but they can't be used on remote server... But why using them on remote servers if we don't need to?

To speed-up the use of Notoriety and Quest Completed I added Inside Job and Feint. Feint is great, since i can bypass two ICEs and, if I make a successful run, I can still play Notoriety and Quest Completed. To make even easier my job I think Doppelgänger is just perfect: I can make one additional run per turn, thus being able to play two events among Notoriety or Quest Completing, thus to maximize one turn.

As this deck is highly focused on the use of Notoriety and Quest Completed, i need something to get them back from the heap: that's why you can find 3x Same Old Thing and 3X Déjà Vu. Also,

To help me with the econ I decided to add 3X Security Testing, since I don't need to directly access cards i can make runs that can easily repay themselves. Also having installed 2X Security testing, i can choose two different server to run, and maximizing my income. 3X Easy Mark can help me to boost my credits and they're always welcome, and also Dirty Laundry can help me a lot with creds.

Finally Planned Assault can be an excellent tutor to find what I need the most in some cases (maybe there's an installed Agenda to steal, so it's better to have Quest Completed, maybe not and that's the case to run Notoriety), and Express Delivery can let us draw something useful.

I was thinking about using Ken "Express" Tenma: Disappeared Clone instead of Gabriel, but running any time possible on HQ can maximize Gabe's ability. Also, Comet could be a nice substitute for Doppelganger, but it works only with events, but I think Doppel can be more versatile. I considered Desperado too, for its gained at each run (that can also combo with Security Testing) but I was more for getting extra runs (which mean extra clicks in this particular deck).

Finally, Plascrete Carapace is just something to prevent death. I love life, I love running, i don't want do go flatline.

I hope it can be really enjoyable to play, good luck!

beautiful, really, it's amazing. The only problem that I see is the lack of economy; Security Testing and no desperado is a very frail and slow strategy. What you think on adding Prepaid VoicePAD ?

Nice try. I've made similar deck once, with an addition of Blackmail as a support for Quest Completed. But my ID of choice was Sil instead of Gabe - this way I knew what to hit with Quests and Blackmails.

@quiciuq I get the approach for sil instead of gabe but gabe gives econ also a useful plus, However you could just put in Lemuria Codecracker this allows you to turn Gabes ability into Silhouette: Stealth Operative for an extra click which is possible thanks to Doppelgänger.

I agree with your idea of blackmail possibly using Frame Job to get the bad pub since Notoriety is already in. I notice 2MU free id want to make it work for something either with another program like Sneakdoor Beta, Datasucker or with the new up and coming resource Data Folding

100% sneakdoor beta. Good in Gabe, and works to help with QC.
