"Have you met my monster?"

Cpt_nice 1955

Little girls like playing with dinosaurs, but in today's meta you need someone even more powerful to watch your back.

Gentlemen and ladies, meet Dhegdheer. She is a monster from a Somalian folktale who would eat children and have ears so big she could hear all sound. There was no hiding from this dangerous monstrosity...

Also, she is a brand new shaper card. And it's a good one! As she is a 0 MU program, you can Park your Adept and Savant on her and have all the MU you want. Combine this with Chaos Theory's ability, a console and a few Akamatsu chips and soon your breakers will reach strength 8 to 10. Never boost them again and get into every server easily!

What is more, due to all the MU you have, even if Dhegdheer does not immediately hit the field, your Deep Data Mining will always be able to dig for 4 extra cards on your R&D runs. Corp thinks you're focussing there and forget about HQ? Good, hit them with that Legwork!

We have no time for dealing with Skorpios shenanigans, so we run 2 Sacrificial Construct and a Film Critic, and if they become the new meta this will be bumped up to 3 and 2 respectively. Atman is there for backup purposes. Temujin is a no brainer since there is no lack of influence. E3 is good to lower the cost of breaking subroutines, but you could honestly run without it as you will save a lot of money because you never have to boost your breakers. It takes a while to set up, but once you get going, you are an unstoppable force of nature. You could say, monstrous.

All in all, not a competitive deck, but a very fun one.

I'd like to make a suggestion. London Library and Overmind work pretty well here. I personally Rebirth into Hayley so I can abuse London / Overmind / Chameleon whenever I need it. Very resistant to Skorpios, too.

I like it. It would set up much faster in Ayla "Bios" Rahim: Simulant Specialist, giving a much better chance of finding your Dhegdheers first. You'd also have 5 additional cards slots to make up the 1 mem difference and to accelerate even further. Hyperdriver would complement the build well as draw or credits depending what you need.

@Lynx Kuroneko A nice idea but the deck is already kinda tight.

@FreqKing I haven't tried out Ayla yet. I honestly just really love CT, she is the first runner I ever played the game with. So the deck is kind of nostalgia based. No doubt Ayla makes the deck more consistent, but I am just a sucker for that cute dino girl.
