InfiniteNutshell 861

This is my top-seed-in-Swiss Corp from Battleground (Runner deck is at http://netrunnerdb.com/en/decklist/32755/ice-trafficking). I've been playing Titan pretty consistently since O&C came out, and gradually tuning this list, so I'm really comfortable with it. I like that I have many paths to victory: I can do classic Snare/SEA+Scorch, I can Atlas Train, I can rushing agendas behind my cheap gearcheck ice, and sometimes I can even play neveradvance in a nasty Wendigo-Archer server!

There were two changes in my latest round of tweaks to this deck: first, I finally swapped out Errand Boy for Caduceus -- Errand Boy's subroutines just don't hit hard enough anymore, and with Anarch everywhere it's not going to stay on the board for any length of time, so it can't even be much of a tax. Caduceus does a much better job of saying "ok you better go find Mimic now."

The other change came when I realized that ever since the NAPD list went into effect, I'm already spending effectively 4 influence per SanSan City Grid, so I can get a more flexible suite of fast advance tools by swapping one of them out for Biotic Labor. I'm still not sure it's better (I've rarely played the Biotic), but I'm liking the idea that I can Atlas Train in one turn starting from either card in hand, unlike a SanSan train where I basically have to draw the SanSan and leave it on the board.
