Gaslighting runners since 2015

Classic Spark! The twist is that Parhelion gave us an amazing card that play to our strenght.s

Gaslighting

Mulligan plan : maximum one agenda in hand, the rest is good.

Game plan : Score an AR-Enhanced Security as soon as possible to win. Then score behind Tollbooth.

Most effective strategy against this deck : trash every asset in sight. This is why scoring AR-Enhanced Security is so important. If the runner does not do that, you'll soon have LOADS of credits. Don't be afraid of doing the classic move of putting 2 assets and a naked AR-Enhanced Security on the board on turn one.

Secondary win condition : BOOM!, classic!

If the runner goes tag me, you will score faster with Freedom of Information.

The best card in the deck is Gaslight. If you have Hard-Hitting News, you can fetch Economic Warfare to land it next turn. If you are sure to land Hard-Hitting News next turn, then fetch BOOM!.

Ice suite is fairly straightforward : cheap and taxing ices with Tollbooth for the real protection.

Would NBN: Controlling the Message be better? Yes! But you'll lose a BOOM! or your Marilyn Campaign, and you would not have the fun of playing a janky identity like Spark Agency: Worldswide Reach. Denying one or two credits on turn one, to force the runner to click for credits to just play Sure Gamble, that is something that only Spark can do.

"...best card in the deck is Gaslight"

@Kawau, I tried Ad Blitz in a previous deck. It is a lot of fun and some shenanigans can be done with it. It could certainly be tried as a recursion card.

@NetDad true enough, I had to cut something and I wanted 12 ices and as much advertisement as possible.

Thanks for the comments! Cheers!
