Gingersaurus Jes: Cookies With the Devil

This definitely isn't a deck finely tuned for the current meta, but it is a very fun engine to pilot and one I've been enjoying a lot on Jinteki.

Basically step 1 is to get a Gingerbread on your Dinosaurus. From there, you'll want to Temujin/Patron on lightly iced servers to build up money and cards through runs. With that combo, you should be able to easily get quality R&D accesses while challenging remotes. Faust is already good but Gingerbread-Panchatantra is a potent combo that should get you through just about any ice stack. 2 Levy keep the engine running for as long as necessary to win.

The ID choice is personal preference. The ability to ignore tags from Data Raven, Turnpike, Gutenberg, Snares, etc. is really good for tempo. I've thought about building this in Kate or Hayley for quicker set-up, but haven't done much testing with them yet.

I think you've just gotta throw in a contingency plan for when your dino fails to show up in time for these kinds of decks. Whether that's Scavenge, or even a Clone Chip so you can overwrite and reinstall quickly.

@MrAaronSA Scavenge isn't a bad idea. It would also be helpful if you've got an SMC down and need a Pancha that you had to discard earlier. You could probably cut a Dirty Laundry.
