[Startup] Rig Shoot, Re-set, Reality

Rig shooter seems to have some teeth in startup at the moment as there is very little recursion for programs and obviously trashing a Endurance is great. With the rotation of Boomerang leaving Botulus and Inside Job as maybe the only quick ways into a lightly protected server, it seems harder for runners to contest remotes quickly, or without installing breakers/Endurance.

Basic strategy is to protect centrals early and then jam into the remote to force installs and runs. You then have plenty of options to tag the runner with Funhouse, Unsmiling Tsarevna and Ping during runs and of course Drago Ivanov or Public Trail if they ever get low on credits. You want to ensure you're drawing into your Retributions so there's plenty of draw built into the deck with Predictive Planogram and Spin Doctor.

On the influence spend front Simulation Reset is an amazing include as it adds another way for you to recur anything you need but also is just great tempo if you've flooded up or don't have what you need at the time. I really like the include of Ballista as well as a lot of runners don't expect it and it is versatile; great as a hard end the run if no sentry breakers are left or an unanticipated program trash.

Would have loved to have found room for Snare!, Psychographics and Shipment from Vladisibirsk as the only punishment for tags is to trash stuff, but deck slots were tight.

You can usually try and score out quite quickly early game or after landing a single Retribution. If the game does drag on a bit and they manage to install No Free Lunch, I have still found you can usually force them to use them up and grind out the win eventually once you can rig shoot.
