The New Franchise

Celephaishs 19

An attempt at making a Sportsmetal deck focusing on the new 'agenda feeding' mechanic that R&R is pushing for HB.

Franchise City is the spice here, with the idea being that you can get it down and assume the runner is going to access agendas from R&D or HQ. Maybe score out some cheap agendas during the game, get Franchise City to fire once and then Game Changer into a Global Food Initiative from hand for the late-game win. I don't know how well it will work, but I love the theme and flow that Sportsmetal and the new cards have brought in so wanted to give it a try.

Influence-wise, I think 13 are locked up with GFI and Franchise. Surveyor's here because it's the best ice in the game right now and can cap off a nice Seidr Adaptive Barrier server.

The ice suite in general can probably be tweaked - I'm not as familiar with HB so just threw in a decent mix. Same with the operations - I think I'm over-valuing the credit boost that the ID ability is going to give me, but hard to know without getting to play the deck a bit.

Anyways, just my ideas and thoughts. I think Franchise City is a fun card to try with this deck, but it might be just janky and terrible. Doesn't mean it's not going to be fun though!
