Twice the Fun

EnderA 500

Let's do this!

This deck is all about taking advantage of Hayley Kaplan: Universal Scholar's ability. (Big surprise, right?) That means cheap cards, and surprise installs. I decided to go the route of Replicator, since that seemed to synergize pretty well. Double up on all the hardware! What cheap hardware can we spam?

Gear Up!

You know what's cheap, efficient, and very useful for having multiples? Stealth credits. 3x Lockpick or 2x Silencer is the dream. Throw in a Cloak or two, and we're golden. This allows us to toss in some super efficient breakers. (Hello Refractor/Dagger!)

What else can we throw in? How about some Akamatsu Mem Chips. 1 for +1? Yes please!

Gotta grab some obligatory Clone Chips. 2 should suffice. Always handy. Toss in HQ Interface and R&D Interface for good measure, to become a real threat. Oh, and Plascrete Carapace, because we like being alive. That way we get to do things.

Getting the Goods!

Hmm... that looks like some good hardware, what else should we bring to the table? Self-modifying Code seems like an obvious choice... we're playing Shaper after all. Need some Trade-Ins and Test Runs for searching for pieces. Diesel should power some very efficient free deck draw.

Invest!

But wait, we gotta have some credits, right? Economy! It's important. Let's hire Kati Jones to grab us some cash. Professional Contacts let us get money and dig, which given all our cheap cards, is exactly what we want. And Personal Workshop is basically required for Hayley. I'm pretty sure that's where she lives, with her roommate Kate "Mac" McCaffrey: Digital Tinker. Always fun to double-install literally whenever we want, making use of her ability on both the runner's and the corp's turn.


Cards I considered adding, but didn't:

Sure Gamble: With much of the deck being incredibly cheap, I hope Professional Contacts, Kati Jones, and Personal Workshop will be sufficient economy.

Modded: The deck doesn't run enough hardware/programs that cost 3+, in fact only 9 of them do. Many of them I might rather install as a non-action rather than spending a card and an action... the breakers will probably be SMC'd out, and the interfaces would be great to install mid-run.

Dyson Mem Chip: While nice, they're expensive (relatively speaking.) With Akamatsu Mem Chip and a console, we can get up to +4, enough for all 5 breakers and 2 Cloaks.

Magnum Opus: Takes up valuable . Professional Contacts is preferred, and I'd rather spend Self-modifying Codes on Breakers/Cloaks.
