The ever changing constant

This deck is a variation of "The Creative Principle" deck by tiedyedvortex. First of all, thanks for the inspiration of such a fun deck.

The game plan didn't change much. Install all your 0 cost programs on Scheherazade, install Brahman, London Library and keep installing your Femme on it.

Econ consists of some burst (Sure Gamble and Career Fair), some drip econ (Pro Co and Daily Cast) and a lategame burst with Tech Writer.

After you broke some ice subs with Brahman Proco the uninstalled Programms back to your grip and reinstall them with haleys ability. A crucial point for this deck is to not run last click with a femme on library to be able to uninstall her if the corp doesn't rez ice or you can't use Brahman to uninstall femme (e.g. last ice is swordsman)

The changes were made to help counter asset spam (Paricia) and IG/Gagarin/RP (Employee Strike) Film Critic deals with annoying agenda effects and as a small protection against meat dmg. HQ Interface was added tt additionaly pressure HQ. However i manly added it for a lack of a better idea.

I would take out one Brahman and put in a Cyber Cypher. Never know when a Turing is gonna try and slow ya down. :)

Why the Harbinger? I see that if you install them, you get the dollar, but why not run Aesop's Pawnshop to get more credits? Just confused on the inclusion.

@Deadboy13 You can use Harbinger to fuel Brahman, and it doesn't use memory.

I thought about cyber cipher, however, i don't have any tutors in this deck and don't know what else to drop for a second one. You can still Femme Turing if you need to. Not ideal, but it gets you in. Harbinger, as mentioned is fuel for Brahman.

@lebkuchenmann I feel having a program just for Brahman is the wrong way to do it surely you want to turn that downside into an upside with cards like Cerberus "Lady" H1 / D4v1d.

@Pinkwarrior You are right, it's not ideal. But Harbinger is not only for Brahman, it is also part of your econ engine wit tech writer and reliably triggering Haleys ability . With lady and David one would have to include some extra memory and maybe something to make installing cheaper. Also, since David and Lady are probably only one-ofs, tutoring would be necessary. Those are a lot of additional cards. I think Harbinger is the lesser of two evils here. Btw, before thinking about even more efficient ways to break ice i would first try to tech against some obvious weaknesses. Tags destroy half the econ engine, meatdmg, netdmg and, swordsman installed as the innermost ice.

@lebkuchenmann Not sure I fully agree their I feel that they would save you more money than you would lose. I do agree you'd need search & that Harbinger works with your ability tho. I would just cut out some multiple copies tho to fit in search I feel the only real issue with doing that would be the Femme Fatale since you'd want to draw that rather than use a Self-modifying Code to put it into play.

If you want to deal with most of tho's problems I would change a couple of Diesel for Sports Hopper this will use more econ but it will work with Technical Writer you can still use it as draw and will help with traces also whilst helping protect against Scorched Earth and Ronin when needed.
