Click Bait

This is the deck I took to Bratislava regionals past Saturday and won with. I was practicing Lock Hayley on jinteki.net the day before and played against AgInfusion for the first time – it was a nightmare and I was inspired to create my own take on it.

Let’s start by addressing the elephant in the room:

Ruhr Valley I’ve been asked “But it’s 6 to rez – do you ever use it?” and I honestly think this card is the MVP of the deck! Combined with the ID (and/or ELP/Caprice) it creates scoring windows. The dream is Ruhr + ELP + ID: they run the remote for 3 clicks, you redirect them and they can’t run again. But even if it’s just Ruhr – you see their boardstate and they would have to spend their whole turn trying to get in.

Jackson Howard You probably want 3. Find a way to get the third in there :) I think I only used Friends in High Places 1 or 2 times over the course of the whole tournament - maybe that should be the JH.

Caprice Nisei She shines when the runner plays Employee Strike instead of Rumor Mill. Aside from that scenario I actually prefer Ruhr valley: for 6 rez you get a guaranteed 2 lost clicks and a 4 trash while caprice is 2-4 (rez+psi) for a gamble and a 1 trash (no synergy with ID)

ICE I’m not sure if Mind Game is a good include but I couldn’t decide on a replacement in the short time I had to build and try this deck. It’s great it the runner always breaks it – it can be a burden if the runner doesn’t. Chiyashi, DNA tracker, Komainu or Excalibur are your go-to outermost ICE choices (for later redirecting) depending on match up. Excalibur + Mother Goddess + ID can lock out non-AI runners.

Weaknesses Extra clicks, ICE destruction/derez, econ denial (although the ID is resilient against Account Siphon/Vamp/...) – The decks only full loss was against a derez Gabe rebirthed into Los (+timed loss against Leela that I conceded into a full loss for extra SoS). I also faced a Siphon Whizzard (with Employee Strike) – despite Planned Assault Account Siphon turn 1 on unprotected HQ I managed to hold on and in the end kill him with Philotic Entanglement when he ran out of cards.

Ruhr Valley winning a regionals. What a time to be alive!

Joking aside, the guaranteed waste of three clicks when running a remote, together with having to spend two more to run it again must be brutal. Excited to give this a spin on jnet.

One of the more interesting AgInfusion builds that have popped up so far.

Can confirm, deck is a menace and obliterated my Hayley in the finals. Congrats on the win and especially with Ruhr Valley :)

I have not seen such an entertaining final game for a long time. Congrats Markus on your victory and refreshing deck-build.

I love this.

I shared it on the netrunner subreddit so more people could see. Hope that's okay.

@guy.brush Even though it doesn't look that useful in an AI-heavy meta it's usually good for one of two things:

  1. you rez it to end the run or force a breaker
  2. you use your ID to trash it and redirect

The fact that it derezzes itself after 1. makes it even more useful for 2.

(a?) Swordsman over mindgame, perhaps? or is Chiashi enough hate? Presumably now you can get the third jackson point by swapping in Obokata Protocol.
