Netrunner Iron Chef - Ken Tenma Schedule Analyzer

hewlett390 31

Get ABR and e3 installed early, along with Public Terminal, Desperado and Security Testing, and you've got a pretty consistent economic engine that you can pretty much always get through. Expert Schedule Analyzer is also there to help you reveal stuff in HQ, though its use as a card is still pretty limited, to be sure. It can help you make some decent decisions, though, and along with ABR it's pretty easy to get some needed information from the Corp.

If you drop the Indexing you can run this out of Gabe or Andy; is there any reason not to?

I probably could, to be sure (I'd probably go with Gabe, just because I'm always paranoid about running poor); I just think I picked Ken to capitalize the most on run events, some of which I would run outside of HQ (Laundrys, Birds, Inside Jobs, Maker's Eyes). I'd also get a little more financial leeway out of the deck's ABR/e3 gimmick. Thanks for the suggestions though! Still new to deckbuilding from scratch.

I have had some fun with Enhanced Vision which I would recommend over Expert Schedule Analyzer in this deck. What it seems you want to do is time your Legwork well and this allows you to go down to 2 of them. I'd say if Security Testing is a key part of your plan you need to increase it to at least 2. Perhaps you could consider going down on the Early Birds as well. I think tpyically Legwork vs Sneakdoor Beta is an either/or choice so you might find that picking 1 of them allows you to thin out the deck.

Thanks for the feedback! I should point out (which I forgot to do) that this particular deck was an exercise based out of our local meta, where one of us made an "Iron Chef" list of secret ingredient cards - cards that are not often used in our local meta - and we had to make decks using two of those cards. For this deck, that's Always Be Running and Expert Schedule Analyzer, so ESA is somewhat integral to the deck.

Sneakdoor is a bit of a plan B contingency in case they ice up HQ in a way I can't get through, but I could probably go down to one in that case.
