I think you could drop some Ichi 1.0. You will never be happy to see it in your opening hand because it doesn't matter in the early game where the runner doesn't have any programs and idealy you want it to be placed after a piece of gearcheck.

@Ladriel that is a really good point about the Ichi 1.0 it can be passed with no penalty if the runner has no programs to be trashed plus it can be easily clicked though if by itself. Although l do not know what to replace it with l would like to replace it with another pice of ice preferably with another sentry what would you suggest?

Vikram 1.0 immediately comes to mind for a similar function. As such it still suffers from the downsides of Ichi (not a good ice turn 1 or at the root of a server).

All in all for HB Fast Advance sentries, just stick to Architect and Ichi 1.0 with an occasionnal 1xVikram 1.0.

Brainstorm doesn't contribute to your gameplan and NEXT Gold implies to rethink the whole agenda suite to work.

Ok good to know thanks for the advice! Also another thing l was curious about is having 4 code gates that can be broken by Yog.0 for free a problem and if so should l replace some of those cards with viper or any other stronger code gates that have a higher strength?

Sadly between Yog.0 and Atman 4, you will still be broken efficiently by something. Viper is a good alternative to mix up the strength, and we don't see as much shapers these days anyway !

Good point. I will switch the Enigma with Viper and take out 1 copy of Ichi 1.0 thanks for all the help! l will repost the deck list with my new modifications after the tournament this Friday.

I am trying to build my EtF deck a bit faster and really like what you have built. Please keep us informed about the test results. Thanks and good luck with the deck.

@Gerfencr Unfortunatelly I do not have neither enought experience nor time for testing to devise such a deck myself. My own brief experience says that for rush strategy I do not like bioroid ices much as you can click through. It´s hard to decide on ratio of fast and cheap ices as Vanilla and Quandary which are excellent at the beginning and not so good later. As for economics I also run three Adonis Campaign instead of yours Green Level Clearance. I may try to switch them for Restructure to test it [Adonis is slower and after requires a protection but is an asset which comes handy too]
