(Gateway, System Update) Make em poor!

Make it expensive for the corp to rez ice, keep em poor, go kill their economy pieces when they install them in servers as well, when they do rez something get through and hit em with E shutdown, tread lightly to get in places where they can’t rez or it hurts to do so, leech is to help breakers get in for cheap when needed, especially mimic to get over higher cost sentry ice. Career fair makes it cheap for your liberated accounts installs or your earthrises for card draw.

This is using only cards from gateway and update, first runner deck back since I just got back into netrunner 3 days ago. Love some other feedback!

I've been playing some SG+SU Reina and I find Xanadu a bigger tempo hit for me than for the Corp! More Verbal instead might help with the draw issues. I typically make only one run per turn so I spent pips on a couple of Maker's Eye and put in some Jailbreaks for multi access. Precision Design is very fast so I have a Mutual Favor to speed up breaker set up. I have a couple of Botuli so I spent pips on Carmen instead of Unity as I find Buzzsaw pretty serviceable. Botulus takes care of Tollbooth, but with Mimic, an Archer rez is pretty much gg.

Cool man yeah I’ve played this deck a few times and I’m loving the blue splash cards I’m using it it , and the Xanadu has been a big thing for me in the games I’m playing, I got career fair in there as well to help with the make up money whether it’s used for that or for lib accounts. I was thinking when I started this deck whether I wanted to make it run event style or late game continual multiplayer access pressure. So I was trying this first. I do like the idea of botulism and want to try that for sure I just threw mimic in there cause I’m soo used to it from old school reina back in the day and that’s when I last played netrunner haha. I’m gonna try some of your recommendations. My only meta right now is my wife as I don’t know anyone else in my area that still plays, but would love to find that! Thanks for the feedback!

I got a question I said it’s gg with an archer rez with mimic, but that’s what the leeches are for. With buzzsaw don’t u find it super expensive for any code gates past 4? Also on the card draw i haven’t been having any problems, I get earthrises early till I hit my verbal then I’m fine rest of game, I haven’t had a game yet where I needed more draw.

You're right. Mimic's good for you as you are running Leeches. I'm running Botulus so I don't have slots/memory for Leeches. Tollbooth, Ravana and Funhouse are the only Code gates stronger than 3. Of those Tollbooth can be dealt with by Botulus, Funhouse can be paid for and Ravana can be clicked through.
