Nullify the Ice

Ringworm 9

This is something I threw together, but it's been doing fairly well.

I had a lot of fun playing the Whizzard DamonFork deck, in which it used Faust and D4v1d with the cutlery suite to wreck some ice and allow easy accesses in the future.

I wanted to get back to the old school fixed anarch breakers, and what better ID to try that with than Null? So, starting from a blank slate, I just started picking out cards that had been working well before and tried to tie it all together with Null's ID ability.

The Net-Ready Eyes was mainly to combat Lotus Field- that stopped me cold one game in an early iteration. It's also very handy almost all the time as well, and if you can install it with an I've Had Worse (when it's not needed for safety), all the better.

I originally had a few Harbingers and Prey in there, but they were doing absolutely zero work. I replaced them with an extra copy of each breaker, which has served me far better. I keep going back and forth between choosing Employee Strike and Rumor Mill. However, I'm having too much fun with throwing out a Rumor Mill right before an archives hit, Nullifying Jackson Howard. It's also quite satisfying to hit them with an Immolation Script as well- no one expects the Immolation!

The Sports Hoppers are serving two functions- emergency card draw when needed, and the link boost comes in handy with Controlling The Message being a thing.

And Temujin Contract is just too good to ignore. I still have a spare influence, and haven't decided what, if anything, to use it on. I'm strongly considering Networking or Deuces Wild, but do I dare go to 47 cards?

As for opening hands, I really like to see Temujin or Liberated Account. If the former and they leave a server open, i'll plop it down and run it repeatedly to collect the loot. LA usually means click for cred, install, and double-click back up to 8 creds. Money is useful, afterall.

If you go down to 2x Yog.0 you can pick up a third Temüjin Contract; that's the best possible use of your remaining influence I think. Then you just need to cut one more card and you are at 45. 1x Grimoire seems fine as you can install over Paperclip whenever you want, so the isn't as critical as it appears, and the ability is pure convenience.
