Reina smash!

LauchArtefakt13 2

I am Pretty new to this fantastic game. So I appreciate suggestions and stuff :) So I started Netrunner with the revised core set and of all archetypes in that box I liked ice-denial-(SMASH)-reina the most. I built on that idea and hope it works when I test it at my first non kitchen table event.

This is a cool concept, couple things you could try, not saying they're for sure better;

I would run vigil as the console, being poor makes the cards pool up in the corps hand, and this will help you address your draw-light deck some. I would cut to 1 or 2 contaminate and add in daily casts because your economy seems a bit low, so you're vulnerable to tags.

Maybe start with: -2 patchwork -2 contaminate +2 vigil +1 daily casts +1 dirty laundry

If interdiction isn't too useful -2 interdiction +2 daily casts.

Also while Eshutdown fits the plan, you could consider cutting 2 and putting in 2 more deuces wild and add pad tap for more money(passive) and some level of denial.

DDOS is good too if you can fit it in, because it allows VERY early game Diversion of Funds, and also powers en passant pretty easily.

Welcome to the game :)

Agreeing with X3r0h0ur, DDoS would be pretty sweet in this deck. Allowing more aggression and forcing the corp to rez ICE in awkward ways is what anarch goodstuff thrives on.

In addition, I'd make a case for Imp in this deck. Not only is it a target for Contaminate and is good trash-econ, but it lets you stretch their ICE even thinner by trashing it off HQ or R&D.

Stimhack is a very well-used economy card, possibly the most bursty econ in the game. It allows you to challenge remote plays you otherwise have no business challenging.

If you go with DDoS and Stimhack, I think 3 Run Amok is at least 2 too many. They are all tools for challenging remotes, and with the amount of central pressure you present, that ideally shouldn't need to happen too often in a game.

Thank you for your Input. I strongly consider Imp, daily cast, DDOS and stimhack. Also I agree that my deck is a little lite on draw effects. But I am not sure I want to trade patchwork for vigil... I'm actually very keen on patchwork for it adds flexibility and a little econ boost. Don't need interdiction in this matchup? Burn it with Patchwork! It also works well with the heap-breakers.

If you want to run a Current, but Interdiction seems lackluster, may I recommend Hacktivist Meeting or even Credit Crash. Both put pressure on the corp, squeezing them even tighter.

I of course meant System Outage, not Credit Crash...
