Mac's Lucky Charms 2.0

Want to run a rig? Want to run a really, really big rig?

Mac's got you covered! This deck focuses around having as many pieces of hardware out in a game as you could ever possibly need with the end result being a rig that almost pays to run itself.

Replicator both provides multiple copies of recurring credit hardware and serves to thin out the deck. It also allows the runner to take advantage of Mac's ability every turn and reduces the need to draw cards as an action. The VoicePADS, Cyberfeeders, Cloaks and Sahasrara provide recurring creds that allow you to ignore economy support and focus solely on running. Generally you want to install once and spend the rest of the turn running.

The deck focuses heavily on R&D access with cards like Maker's Eye and the Interface. Assuming you have replicator in play, the Interfaces stack almost immediately allowing for Medium levels of access without the drawback of purges.

Overall, this is a fun deck inspired both by the novelty of Mac's Irishness and the idea of the most Shaper-ific rig I could think of though the deck also has a surprising amount of practicality coming 3-1 in a local store tournament I entered due to the constantly growing nature of the rig as well as the ridiculous levels of redundancy despite only having one copy of each icebreaker.

Leprechaun is included because, as several people have stated since the first incarnation of the deck, you can't call a deck 'Lucky Charms' and not include at least one copy of Leprechaun.

If you're going to roll 3 Prepaid VoicePADs, you gotta get some Dirty Laundry in here or something similar. Hell, even Inside Job or something - considering how much influence you have spare.
