Encore v1.0

Irked 1

Okay, so, still pretty new to this; this is the deck I've been fiddling with for the past week or so. It wants to play through as much of the deck as you can afford to - clicking for credits only rarely and drawing as many cards as you can as quickly as you can.

Basic idea is pretty simple: get to two Link using Access to Globalsec, then use a combination of your lots of card draw (Diesel, Quality Time) and Hostage to draw out your three copies of Underworld Contact. Now you have reliable recurring cash.

Ice tends towards the expensive side, but that's mitigated by using the Test Run/Scavenge trick; thanks to your identity, this nets you at least one and possibly two cards (depending on where the program starts). If you're having trouble drawing enough of one or the other of those (you will), you can use Same Old Thing to fill in the gaps.

Everything else is there either in support of those two goals. Kati Jones gives you one recurring source of cash, in addition to your 3 credits/turn, and can also be fetched by a Hostage if need be; with seven non-redundant Connections in the deck, Calling in Favors made good sense. Other cards are there either for money (Sure Gamble, Stimhack) or protection (Feedback Filter, Plascrete Carapace, New Angeles City Hall, Infiltration). Fall Guy makes a lot of the other work more sustainable: you can protect Kati, hang on to that one Same Old Thing your deck has coughed up, or keep the New Angeles City Hall around.

Feedback very welcome!
