I'm just throwing a bunch of fast advance stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks.

First up we have unorthodox predictions. If you are able to install another agenda after scoring this (with sponsorship or jeeves) then you can keep the runner from accessing the new agenda for a turn.

Trick of light plus ice wall, your basic combo. Also standard Jeeves stuff: Shipment from SanSan with either subliminal or lateral growth.

Nisei Mk II counters (from itself or genetic resequencing) plus Excalibur. This is breakable if they have an AI breaker, so you might need some help from Marcus Batty. If you have team sponsorship, you can get Batty back after scoring the agendas.

Political Dealings (or some other thing) plus your identity (Greenhouse) will let you score a 4/2 or 4/3. You can also trigger Jeeves from flipping your identity, though I'm not sure how useful that is.

Look, this might not work - most of these cards require you keeping an asset on the table for a turn and you could also lose the agendas from centrals before you get to use them. But I'm hoping there are some salvageable ideas in here.

running 14 agendas and 13 ice is not a clever idea tho..

@Gaxeco might be right here. You could probably trade a few of your three offs into more ICE: Trick of Light, Lateral Growth, Jeeves, Team Sponsorship.

Then again, as you said, there's a lot there, so see what sticks. I'm loving the idea though. Maybe try a bold Mushin No Shin into Unorthodox Predictions, next turn install an agenda and score UP? And, of course, see them squirm. Might work even better with mono ICE deck though. I heard Jinteki's pretty good with Code Gates...

Since Excalibur is unique, you might consider taking only two.

Loving the idea though.

I love the idea of smacking an improved protein source down on the table with political dealings and flipping the id.

I have couple questions. No JH, are sure? What are you installing with team sponsorship?

No inf for JH unless you take out some combos. Team sponsorship installs agendas from hand after you score unorthodox predictions, or Marcus Batty from archives when you're on the Nisei train
