Inspired by this most hilarious jank video ( https://youtu.be/lpX9W0O0ouI ) by the SanSanFrancisco guys.

Deck Overview: PPVP econ deck with Oracle May and Motivation for additional card draw and econ. Ayla for a better chance at starting with any of these key pieces.

Highlights:

3 employee strike- I'd put more if the designers would let me

Escher - due to influence this doesn't have the best breakers in the world, being able to stack codegates or move Data Ravens around is useful

Eureka - with PPVP installed and Motivation it can be nice to install a program for free. Or you can Testrun then Eureka. I would use Scavenge instead but as I only have thee programs there's almost never one in the trash to trigger clause on Scavenge.

Rebirth - Shapers have some piss poor targets for Rebirth, but Kit and Jesminder are good here.

Comet - Peace in Our Time into a Sure Gamble, or Interdiction into Dirty Laundry, or Indexing into The Makers Eye, all good choices.

Opponents:

NBN - OK match up, most ice is porous and you can out econ most but 24/7 boom is still a thing.

Jinteki - 2 levy's and indexing abuse

Weyland - out money and win on RnD lock, Skorpios is an almost auto lose though.

HB - its a toss up, with bulky ice and FA options its hard to keep up.

Notable absentee card:

Push Your Luck - That card is broken and should be banned.

Interesting list here. IMO, if Eureka is going to be a thing, I'd lean more towards Torch, as opposed to Gordian.

Eureka! looks completely useless in this deck. You're not saving anything except a cred or two, and with Oracle May I can do that ANYWAY for the same number of clicks. You don't have a big enough card to drop with Eureka to make it worth including.

I am a representative of SSF and while we largely approve of this infringement of the copyright of our deck, we STRONGLY disagree with the removal of PYL and Kraken. Carry on.

@Murphy - the problem with Push Your Luck is that I often pilot the deck alone and as any try hard knows you need at least 2 people piloting to achieve that 100% pushed luckedness.

@SuperHotFire GOOD POINT. We are going to need to take votes on Twitch next time we play PYL. Wisdom of the crowd.

I don't like Motivation, as you can already make a very good guess that the next card is an event, especially the second time through the deck when all that's there is your second Comet and the excess Oracles. And if you happen to trash a program you need, you can get it back with Test Run. I'd sub out 3x Motivation for 1x Test Run and some others. But I really like where this is going.

Motivation is cheating. Real oracle players trust their deck.

@maxey I am a cowardly cheat for sure =]
