Raiding the pawnshop

Otrakun 29

Just a thing I wanted to do with exile+sahasrara+conspiracy breakers + Aesop's pawnshop as an engine. This deck is untested.

Basically the idea is you trash a conspiracy breaker at the beginning of every turn and bonk into a piece of ice to get it back. If you have sahasrara installed you still profit, even if you recur a paperclip.

This list runs triple SMC so it's possible I should be running some more silver-bullet-y programs like clot, but that's a meta call and I just moved so I don't know what the meta is like, and as such this is a more general list.

I have been testing a similar deck without Black Orchestra - just relying on cyber-cypher. It is very fun playing.

Have you tried using cold? and what about scavenge and a chameleon?

Needs more Reaver :D

@harinezumi I like Black Orchestra, as it's another cog in the engine of the deck and is still a fairly efficient breaker. I'm testing Cold Read right now and it's impressed me.

@KramsI don't really like Reaver due to it's intense influence cost and the fact that while it makes the engine better once it's going, it doesn't actually help set it up in any way.

I'll probably update the list at some point in the future once I've figured out exactly where to go with it. I'm currently experimenting with cutting Clone Chip entirely considering it's only real target was SMC. In it's place I shoved Chop Bot 3000 and the last Temüjin Contract and a Cold Read. I also cut the Cyber-Cypher for another Cold Read now that the chips are gone.
