This is a classic Restoring Humanity deck... if there ever was such a thing. Set up some Bathynomus on archives and let the credits trickle in. SanSan on a remote and fast advance out Regenesis with Send a Message is the main win condition.

The alternative route is a well timed Anemone in combination with Snare or Nanisivik+Bathynomus in archives to flatline the runner.

I have not a clue why it keeps winning but it has only dropped one game out of ten on jnet. I guess no Rezeki means that SanSan is strong?

@mastercrake I'm working on something extremely similar! Have you tried to squeeze in Moon Pool? Also what about Bladderwort in place of Marilyn Campaign?

@Oddball Yes, I was thinking about Moon Pool but it did not quite make sense for me as I have pretty few agendas. So it just ended up as a bad Spin Doctor with the upside of discarding without a click. Bladderwort scares people, so they trash it as quickly as possible. You could defend it with ice, but I already have a difficult time keeping the runner out of HQ and R&D.

The thing I am very much unsure of though if a second Simulation Reset would be worth it. I sometimes strand myself by some runner making successful runs on archives and turning all cards face up.

@mastercrake the big reason I would include Moon Pool is that it will less risky Regenesis scores.

How has Nightmare Archive been working for you?

@Oddball Yes, that is what I mean with a bad Spin Doctor, just the backside and costs 3 credits to rezz. A 40 card deck size and 3 Spin Doctors seems to be enough to me.

Nightmare Archives has been pretty good for me and I would like to have another if it just wasn't 4 influence. The -1 score can be great as it might mean the runner needs to score another agenda. Hand size 4 does make Anemone + Bathynomus/Snare! lethal.
