Streamlined Andromeda deck:
This is a combo deck, the combo of course beeing Desperado and Datasuckers. Your runs gain so much value.
I would put in another Desperado but I only own two Cores (remove Sneakdoor for it)
John Masanori just makes the combo even better.
The Anarch breakers are very important for the combo too since Sucker counters become even stronger with them in play.
I feel that right now one off breakers are a big liability with Power Shutdown and Grim beeing around. So I went with two each this also speeds the deck up a lot and lets me use the special orders for Crypsis if something got trashed.
If I had to make some changes to this deck:
To improve early draw:
1xMasanori
1xKate
1x?
1xMr. Li
2xHostages to get the resource you need
Cards that could go out:
Sneakdoor Beta
Easy Mark (This is the newest and possibly temporary addition. I removed an Inside Job because I hate having two of them in hand)
Cards that could go in:
Faerie (this is also Power Shutdown protection)
Crescentus
Femme (though im not too into her, breaking should be cheap already)
Infiltration or Raymond Flint if you have too many Jintekis in your meta
Some thoughts on this Decks weaknesses:
Draw Power is limited, mid- to lategame Masanori is great but he shouldn`t be played too early. I mean early draw thats why Andromeda is so good. (If you want to change this R&D Interface would have to go but those worked wonders for me so I´m reluctant to change it.)
There is a lot of economy but I still feel Kati is really important, so taking tags is kind of hard. This means Account Siphon is not the best card in the deck. Of course the deck has the ability to go tagme and it is a great option against corps that overextend on trace ice.

I think the Anarch breakers are really integral to this deck. Criminal breakers are terrible for this deck. Also the influence on the breakers is really low. If I would have to free up influence I would cut an R&D Interface. Mr. Li might also improve digging power so I would rather experiment with -1xKati -1xMasanori -1xEasy Mark +Mr. Li +2xHostage. I don´t like dropping 2xKati the redundancy of having at least two should not be undervalued. (Masanori and Li are not that important) I really don´t like Same Old Thing to recur Account Siphon in a deck that uses resources. |
Consider dropping some of your redundant breakers for in faction breakers to free up influence for 3x quality time and 1 or 2x same old thing (to recur either account siphon or quality time depending on if you need cards or credits). This would really help smooth out the card draw in the deck. Also, this deck would probably do well with 1x professional contacts and 2 or 3x hostage, though it is tough to find the influence for it. You may want to consider -2 kati jones, +2 hostage. Adds a bit of versatility to get either kati or john as the situation demands.
