The Credit Outage

LynxMegaCorp 1343

"Updated" version of the Turn 1 Credit Denial trick.

Opening Hand contains: Shipment from Mirrormorph, Reversed Accounts, 1 or more Advertisements

Click 1: Play SfM - install RA and 2 Advertisements where necessary (Product Placement on vital centrals).

Click 2: Advance RA.

Click 3: Sap 4 credits from the Runner. Rez an Advertisement.

When their turn starts, rez the second Advertisement immediately after they click for a credit for extra insult.

Service Outage helps keep the runner poor for longer.

Ice suite can vary immensely - Thoth and Information Overload are personal favorites.

Note: Make room for a Hard-Hitting News - I'd remove a CPC Generator for one.

Thoughts on Scarcity of Resources to cut down on Temüjin Contract recovery? Problem that I find in Spark is keeping the runner poor. They just bounce back so quickly.

Scarcity is a fantastic option - just wanted to get some mileage out of Service Outage, which itself would make Temujin cost 1$ to get going, at least.

How do you win? What is the plan after you wipe them out turn 1?

@hemraa: I tried running a similar deck out of Sol.

You hope to keep the runner too poor to steal through Red Herrings.

Problems arise from trying to keep them poor, as well as not having any game against [Install Film Critic -> Run Scoring Server]. If there was a way to slot in some tag punishment along with all the assets, there might be a chance. As it is, you can get ahead early but can't really turn it into a sustainable win condition.
