or AJDTIAATTRSCIBT for short.
The deck is... I doubt good. I've only recently started playing Netrunner. It's something I made and after various games played tweaked into this form. I'm mostly publishing it to see what others think, if there's anything to improve and perhaps maybe give others an idea for a new deck.
To put it simply the deck has a single goal. Flatline the Runner. We primarly do that via our agendas and the fact that no matter who scores the agenda, the runner looses a card. I haven't had any chance Flatlining them in the early game however.
Unless the Runner proceeds to steal The One Thing That Shouldn't Be Stolen, followed by them Simply getting beaten to death. But that happens rarely.
Instead of trying to take the Runner out as soon as possible, the game instead turns into a war of attrition, as you build up your economy with Jinteki PAD Campaign and Launch Campaign. Mixed with classics such as Hedge Fund and Cooler Hedge Fund. I have found Celebrity Gift to also be very useful. On one side you're giving away valuable information that can be used to bluff truth (which works out very well at times). But from my experience (maybe i'm just unlucky) and the comical amount of internet scammers, what do you care that the Runner knows your entire hand and deck? It doesn't change the fact that between them and your valuable assets stands an entire glacier... speaking of.
The Three Musketeers of your glacier are fairly cheap, helpful early, mid and late game, depending how lucky you were drawing your assets and operations. DNA Tracker wont end runs, but will force the Runner to spend credits not to loose... well credits (and their grip of course). NOTE: make sure DNA Tracker and Pop-up Window are in the outermost layer, ideally. I didn't do that then I got wiped out by A deck designed to destroy code gates. Don't make my mistake. Anananansi will also hopefully deal some extra net damage AND rearrange your top R&D cards.
Tetris and the Budget Neural Katana are here to mess with any AI that tries melting your glacier. Their job is simple but important. Particuraly against Sea turtles.
Against the turtle and Billion Free Credits you also have Purge for 1 click, which is also helpful early game for easy 2 credits, or if the Runner doesnt use any virus cards.
Anoetic Void - goes into archives to prevent any raids before you have a strong ICE wall set up there, also can go on other servers, but I primarly use it for archives, especially against Archive Loving Cyborgs
Hokusai Grid - wild card really, HQ or a remote server with an asset/agenda to protect, helpful deterrant
Mwanza City Grid - goes into R&D, aside from being a very nice credit boost, especially if the runner is accompanied by a bunch of Deers, it increases the chance the Runner will run head first into a wall. Well in this case the wall isn't a wall but a Brain fryer.
Skunkworks? I'm happy he got a job - also a wild card, instead of deterring via net damage it deters via having to spend 5 credits or two whole clicks.
Regarding the Agendas, I rarely had the chance to score them, primarly relying on the Runner to get flatlined, or run out of cards and get flatlined.
The One Thing That Shouldn't Be Stolen, don't try to score it, that's not the reason it's in this deck. The reason it's here is to bait foolish runners into stealing it, to be trashed by Anoetic Void and Anemone, and to take up 9 agenda points out of 21.
Twin brother of Snare! is what you should be trying to score, bonus points if the Runner stole one himself (to deal 3 net damage instead of just 2).
Breaking the Biological Weapons Convention with style, is a great agenda for this deck. It has the potential to deal even more damage than I can't believe it's now Weyland! for the exact same cost and score.
House of Knives is very helpful in testing to see whether or not the Runner enjoys running at remotes or would rather focus on central servers. Loosing it isn't terrible, scoring it early game is very nice.
If Runner doesnt die instalty due to Obokata Protocol and Punitive Counterstrike combo:
Get your economy running.
Create a glacier so massive that it will blot out the sun.
Begin war of attrition as your R&D server and the Runner's Stack begin drying out.
Flatline, and enjoy your burnt toast.

though uhh... I don't know how to update the decklist, i've updated the description but no clue how to update the deck itself. |
First of all, the title is golden.
The first major change I see is replacing Show of Force with Viral Weaponization. People usually don't end their turn versus Jinteki with less than two cards, so Viral will be more efficient in nearly all cases.
Secondly, you have so much leftover influence that you can afford to import a third Punitive, then cut a Pop-Up Window so you can import 2x Manegarm Skunkworks to take advantage of the silly Manegarm-Anoetic combo. To make room, I'd remove 1x Swordsman and 1x Reverse Infection. Also, you might want to cut 1x Anemone and 1x Envelope to add in 2x Anansi.
It's a cool deck and I look forward to seeing it in action one day!
