Secret Geist (#5 Kiel Secret Santa)

lostgeek 3704

I brought this deck to our Secret Santa event, meaning that other players had to play it. It went 2-3.

This was the deck description I wrote for the players:

Game Plan: Get Reaver out as fast as possible (Self-modifying Code). Then start installing everything with a for draw and later on money with Tech Trader. Use Levy once you're through with your deck and start again.

Things to keep in NVRAM / starting hand:

  • Rebirth (watch out. Once you rebirth, you can't take cards of your NVRAM)
  • Self-modifying Code (leave it on there, if you are already set up once you rebirth)
  • Tech Writer / Trader
  • Beth
  • DJ Fenris

Rebirth: Most of the time into Hayley. Against CtM / tag based decks, maybe Jesminder might be right. Others pretty much never.

DJ Fenris: Most of the time into Geist for insane draw.

Tips:

  • Use Reaver on both your turn and the Corp's turn (pop Spy Cam after their final click)
  • Keep Sports Hopper around for extra link and in case of Punitive Counterstrike and other kill cards.
  • Don't hold on to your Technical Writers for too long. Popping one for 5+ credits (and additional draw / credits from Tech Traders) is always worth it.
