The Color of Money

Jotery 27

Concept I'm working on that aims to keep the runner's credit pool at 0. Suggestions welcome as I am trying to cut it down to 49 cards.

I have run a similar deck--with a similar problem in how to trim down from 54. :)

Given your goal of keeping the runner broke, I am curious as to why you are running Medical Research Fundraiser in place of Hedge Fund.

Also, have you considered a False Lead or two in place of a TGTBT? False Lead + Heinlein Grid is sweet.

I completely forgot about False Leads and as for MRF. I doesn't matter if they get money when I'm planning on Closing Accounts anyways. One change i have made though is -2 Red Herrings for +2 Predictive Algorithms.

EmJayBee83 is right about Medical Research Fundraiser. The plan to use closed accounts, does not warrant its use. The scenario you're thinking about is Fundraiser whilst they're tag (which they very possibly won't, especially early when burst econ is most needed), then to have Closed Accounts in hand (which you might not). You're thinking about best case, when you need to consider general case.

Swap the 3 Fundraisers for 3 Hedge Fund, that frees up some influence. Take out 1 Eli so you have four influence, and add in two Ash (if they have no money, they can't get in!). Connectivity Fee is similar, as in it'll be great, at the right point, but useless elsewhere. Dish is good, but you won't be able to protect it and it becomes a waste.

You also have a distinct lack of hard ETR ICE. If they accept tags, they're just going to run through your ICE. It's fine for them to have no money, if they don't need to spend any to get into the servers.

I made a few changes; netrunnerdb.com

I would keep the red herrings in there. If the runner decides to float tags they may be poor and have no rig but only 5 ICE are going to stop them getting into your servers and stealing agendas. If you puta red herring over r&d and your scoring remote that should keep out the people who want to float tags. Maybe those five ICE are enough though.

Id like to know how the deck goes as I like seeing NBN decks that aren't all about the astrotrain.
