Very similar to Armin firecrackers clotolypse deck: https://netrunnerdb.com/en/decklist/65697/clot-o-lypse-7-0-in-ntscapenavigator-sc-3th-out-of-70-

I feel the deck doesnt need a huge amount of out of the ashes so I cut down a bit on those, usually you only need one, and beth also helps with giving extra clicks.

Playing the third apoc because I like to see it early and also I want to be able to apoc many times througout the game if I need to. Though if fast advance becomes a big problem then it might be wise to run clot as in the original list. So far the FA decks have felt manageable and I´m not sure I want to cut down on the overall strength of the deck to boost those MUs.

Only running one VRCation because I found between the diesels and the ID ability there is quite a bit of card draw already, also the fact that I´m running a 3rd apoc means you are not as desperate for card draw.

Artist colony is not really necessary anymore with game changer banned.

With the slots I´ve freed up I´ve added:

  • An extra apoc(as already mentioned)
  • An extra beth, because it is quite nice to see one early and it almost always provides value
  • 3 Dirty laundry because money is nice, it synergizes with apoc turns, and disposable cards make it easier to trigger the ID ability.
  • One Harmony AR therapy to recurr important pieces and give the deck more longevity. Some games are won by deckout.
  • An extra daily casts. Again money is great and needed to make apoc a real threat, and it´s a disposable card which makes the ID better.

The deck feels very solid. Dropped one game due to not finding engolo or SMC within the first 23 cards, and a close one vs sports FA. Other than that went very well, although there was a pretty tight game vs PD.

Big shoutout to quarkbutter for organizing!

And you started all this @Havvy.

@Bridgemangreat performance and good take on the deck. So you like Beth better for click generation than Ashes?

@ArminFirecrackerOh I wasnt aware, props to havvy!

If it was just about the clicks om apoc turns then ashes would be the way to go I think. My idea is basically that you mainly need the extra clicks when the corp is defending centrals a lot. In which case you get more time to find extra click tools, and also they probably need 15 Bucks to Rez any defense they might have to actually tax you. So Beth is just more versatile imo, providing value before apocing, possibly giving that extra click, and also becoming a card that aesop can trash post apoc.
