Breakerless Leela

hent0076 7

I originally made this deck as a joke, trying out a breakerless blackmail deck. Mainly because I'm bad at Netrunner. Bad at gaining money and knowing when to make runs. When to be passive and set up and when to be aggressive and use the money I have to use the right breakers on the right ice and blah blah blah, you get it. You're smart people. This was before Corporate Scandal and it used Ken "Express" Tenma: Disappeared Clone, Frame Job and Fan Site to stick the corp with a bad pub and then get into servers for free. Then Corporate Scandal happened and I made this. This deck is a less reliable, yet more fun and faster version.

The obvious combo here is Corporate Scandal into Blackmail. Drive By and Infiltration are there to make sure you don't waste your precious Blackmail.

The less obvious but more fun combo is DDoS into Inside Job. The corp can't rez the first piece of ice and you bypass the second. If you can time this right and score and agenda, sometimes it can set you up to get into another server as well in the same turn because DDoS is still active and you bounced an ice thanks to Leela's ability.

Unregistered S&W '35 is there because a rezzed Caprice or Ash is tough to deal with. Plus thematically it's like "Can't hack into that server? Just kill a dude. No big deal."

When playing this deck I always let the corp have all the money making assets they want, because it generally doesn't matter how rich they are. This deck destroys glacier decks and gets destroyed by fast advance decks or decks that can rez ice without you running on it.

Fan Site and Frame Job are left in like an appendix of the Ken deck this one was based off of, currently serving as an emergency play if you run out of scandals. I think they can get scrapped though, maybe for Déjà Vu.

Is the deck top tier? No. But it is a lot of fun to play and crazy frustrating for the corp. Hope you find it interesting.
