Encrypted Portals v. 0.9

This is my attempt to use Encrypted Portals.

This uses Jinteki: Personal Evolution because none of the other Jinteki IDs particularly synergize with the deck's attempt to buff its code gates, and in fact Jinteki: Replicating Perfection somewhat anti-synergizes, as this deck is very weak to R&D lock

Unfortunately, most of the in-faction Code Gates are positional, so playing this might require you to bluff out agendas (before the opponent realize what's happening) behind Chum or Marker or otherwise completely ineffective ICE.

The economy is kind of bad, because it used to rely somewhat on Celebrity Gift, but that gave away too much information (especially whether or not the deck ran AI-hate, what with Faust being everywhere these days...). But most of the ICE is actually pretty cheap, the big problem being that usually at least 2-3 ICE are required to have effect (Sensei over Lockdown over something that can end the run like Turing or something taxing like Komainu), and only if the runner is not already fully set up.

Cards that are currently in flux are Genetics Pavilion (antisynergy with Lockdown) and Tenma Line (used to be another Sunset).

Medical Breakthrough used to be Nisei MK II, but honestly having 3 counters really was not enough to shore up the (extensive) weaknesses of the deck, so trying to rush out seemed like a better idea.

Theoretically, the deck can (and has, a few times) outlasted Faust/1 Levy AR Lab Access, because eventually such a runner can no longer break Sensei and Marker, and the additional ETR subs everywhere lock them out of the scoring remote. But it's a difficult proposition.

Also really weak to Account Siphon.

But, despite all this, if you've ever wanted to play unusable cards like Marker, Sensei, Sunset, or Tenma Line, or if you've ever wanted to use Encrypted Portals, try this deck out. It's fun, even though it's incredibly stupid.
