I'm trying to come up with a competitive Ken deck now that Temujin exists. I'm also wondering if Ken might not be a 45 card deck. What I mean by this, is that each time I make a deck for the Ken ID i end up with anywhere between 47 and 54 cards. Is it possible that with all the good run events that are available that its more worth it to include an Emergency Shutdown enabling Feint, or a gaming winning Legwork than it is to play exactly 45 cards?

I don't know if the Feint is really that much important, if it can only support Emergency Shutdown. But I guess it's nice to have it as a Crisium tech...

Also, no multi access tool other than a single Turning Wheel? Why no Maker's Eye or Legwork?

If you need more influence you can exchange the PPVPs with Public Terminals. That card was made for Ken :D

@d3l3t3 I also find that my Ken decks tend to be 47-50 cards, and I can't really find something to cut from them. I typically include some Planned Assaults to get out a Siphon or Maker's Eye at the right time, but that might not be necessary.

Do you find that you have enough draw? You could consider +2 Masanori, possibly dropping an Early Bird and a Feint.

@Krams I'm wondering about the feint too. I'm thinking it's more of an economy card along with the 3rd inside job. I have to test it more but it's close to the chopping block.

@krams I ran out of influence with this build that's for sure. I was trying to experiment with the Prepaid and Deuces together and so I had to pull The Maker's Eye. I guess the hope is to keep the corp poor enough that The Turning Wheel get there, but that's probably Xmasland.

@Krams this is my other build that you'll probably like much more. netrunnerdb.com

I just don't know if Gordian Blade is worth the extra influence, or if Prepaid VoicePAD is either.

@PureFlightThanks for the comment! I also like John Masanori however, i find myself needing the freedom to faceplant with Ken more than any other runner. Do you think the benefits of John Masanori most often outweigh the occasional tag?

@PureFlight I often draw with my extra click from early bird in the early game if I don't have a better card to play. However, I don't know if that makes it worth the include. I think I do need a John Masanori
