So, I know what you're thinking. This is a stupid identity. Who would play a Jinteki anything without maximizing murder tech and minimizing risk? Me. I'm... not quite right up here...
Enter, Harmony Medtech: Biomedical Pioneer. The card says that you can both win at 6 points instead of 7. Well... Why not throw a bunch of crap on the runner so you only need 6, but they need say.... 8-12?
Core idea of the deck : News Team and Shi.Kyū. Force them to take the extra -1 Agenda points. People think Jinteki would have a plan for when you get tags via an exposê on the runners eating habits, or with Shi.Kyū you can just pay a little to blow them up. Make them suffer for running at all.
Lay any agenda down bare. If they run on it, it could have been a trap! Make them wonder what is real and what isn't. Each agenda (save Medical Breakthrough) is a 3 Advancement agenda. If they don't pick it, score it out next turn! Wanna Mushin No Shin a Plan B? Go for it and score out anything in your hand! Trick of light any 'failed' trap to potentially Install, Advance, Trick Of Light an agenda!
LET THEM TAKE ONE MEDICAL BREAKTHROUGH.
Or don't. Whatever. If they get one, however, you can use the Media Blitz to count like an extra one on the board and be able to simple IAA to score out a second (or IA to score out a third). It's beautiful.
The ice is mostly cheap, all end the run ice. Guard to stop the occasional Inside Job, varies in type so they will need a full suite of icebreakers to get through, and you can typically run this with very little money. That, and most runners will let the Mental Health Clinic live once they see things like Shi.Kyū and Project Junebug.
Thoughts? Leave 'em below. Suggestions? I take those too. I ran it a few times against my playgroup and it did better than I expected, given that I'm usually pretty terrible with building decks (imo). Give it a whirl and see what you think!

The News Teams are primarily there to convince the runner to get the -1 points so they need to get more points to win than you do. I think winning at 6 points when they need 8, 9, or more points to win. It also gives shot to trash their resources, which many runners don't like losing. |

Concept is great! I think it needs more economy. I was also unable to draw important agendas fast enough, so maybe folllow scd's advice on Fast Track. |

I'm going to take a look into what I can put in and out, and see what happens. Expect an updated version of this soon. |
Interesting idea. Have you been considering putting in Fast Tracks to actually get to those Medical Breakthroughs? Or something to tutor the Media Blitz? Or to cuz a News Team for a third Media Blitz, as it seems to be the main way to winning? Maybe CVS as well, if you're going to be fast advancing the Medical Breakthroughs? Actually, I don't get the News Teams in here at all other than to slow down the Runner, assuming they just take the -1 point.
