A slightly modified version of the now (in)famous Keystone archetype. Took this deck to a local GNK tournament, which I won. Didn't perform as well as I'd hoped, but got lucky as most matches was splits. The tournament can be found here.

Made room for a couple of Will-o'-the-Wisps in order to combat what I thought would be a onslaught of new Anarch nastyness at our local GNK tournament, but the one game I had against Anarch was a Valencia deck that wrecked havoc with me not seeing anything but agendas - after playing three games in a row where I saw BOTH Will-o's.

Made one Curtain Wall into a single Orion for fun and to give the new ICE a go. Didn't see it in any of my games.

I did the same substitution with a single Curtain Wall for an Orion, and I found that it's a risky thing against Criminals. If they have a Faerie in hand, they can just drop it and kill Orion for 6 credits, and that's a painful thing to have happen.

@Saan Thankfully I didn't meet any Crims in the tourney, but I guess you're right: Orion open up more options for the runner to destroy the OAI play, which is probably worse than just having three CW.

well, you got to bluff that orion as being an ice wall, and it probably works better with constellation protocol.

If you're concerned about an early Oversight AI'd Orion being sniped, simply layer it inside with a cheaper end-the-run ice beforehand - such as Enigma/Ice Wall. Hive and Caduceus are two additional options.
