Big Beefy HB

AkAnderson 484

This is my HB deck I've been having a lot of fun with. It's won about 85% of the matches it has been put through. There's no neat combos or anything like that, just solid, powerful ICE and assets that all have some sort of impact. The only real "trick" this deck plays is common with Next Design. Bait the runner with Accelerated Beta Test and have them find they wasted their turn and a bunch of economy for an asset.

One card I'm expecting people to comment on is Mandatory Upgrades. The card is bonkers if you can score it, even late game and if it's stolen it's only 2 points and saves you 6 advancement.

Please give any and all feedback/ideas, and I'll try to answer and acknowledge all questions and comments. Thanks.

The only real "trick"....

Is Pop-Up Window. What's he doing here? That one is surprising haha.

Seriously though, a solid Ice deck here. Looks like you run 22 pieces of ice. That seems like the only way to safely use ABT's ability. A lot of 1x economy cards. Couldn't decide which asset econ you like best or you like to be surprised?

Same line of thought with the 1x agendas as well eh?

Run against @Hearthrob's Reina deck and let me know how it works out. You either gotta score quick or have lots of econ cuz he will force you to rez ice and deplete your money stacks.

Sorry, @Heartthrob. To be fair I'm using my phone to post and it doesn't. autocorrect your name.

I don't see Subliminal Messaging and Pop Up Window pulling their weight at current ratios. I'd also consider some 2-1-0 cred ice that ends the run to compliment the bigger ones. To take advantage of NEXT, i don't see any reason you should avoid being able to rez two ice on Runner turn one. If you don't draw into econ, nothing under 3 to rez is more than a one-off. Maybe Paper Wall, Chimera, etc for early avoidance of rush/crash runner?

Good luck
