1st attempt at building a Jinteki deck purely from a single Core set.

Comments and recommendations on different card combinations are welcomed!

Nice work. With this combination of cards, I assume you're looking to build a solid "glacier" remote or two and use it to protect your asset economy and score agendas (or advance sneaky deathtraps!). I would recommend 2 things.

1) Add 4 more cards. The more non-agenda cards in the deck, the lower your agenda density will be when the runner comes snooping in your central servers.

2) Consider some cheaper ice for early defense of your central servers. You have 3 influence left over, so throwing in a few ice walls and maybe an enigma would help slow the runner down early on.

3) Cell Portal/Archer is an exciting idea for your program-trashing fury mechanic, but you had better score a Priority Requisition, or else you will have a hard time paying for that Archer! Maybe switch Archer one out for the amazing Tollbooth instead?

Definitely switch an Archer for Tollbooth and add more ICE in general, as previously stated. (Other good ice are Enigma, Ichi 1.0, Ice Wall)

Try to use all your influence when possible. There is ALWAYS something in another faction that helps you better than you can help yourself. (That's the balance of the game & why we have influence on cards.)

I would dump Aggressive Secretary, and add in a third Adonis and a Corporate Troubleshooter. (Maybe Archived Memories to retrieve these or even Snare!)

I prefer Akitaro Wannabe more than Zaibatsu Loyalty.

I’d remove Precognition and add a third PAD Campaign.

GL!
