I played with this idea for a while. I think Express Delivery is better here than Quality Time, and it frees up some influence. Overmind is an interesting choice, given the nature of your rig. My main problem was keeping up pressure while searching for combo pieces.

When I was trying it out, I found Account Siphon to be a dead draw most of the time, but Maybe with your breaker suite, it'll be ok. It feels like there should be a deck here, but I haven't seen it yet.

If overmind is odd to you, you're doing it backwards. You want to special order or draw into it early to start sticking siphons without worrying about getting stuffed, then using siphon money to buy the console/programs. You won't install overmind late. Also it helps to threaten remote scores to slow the corp down.

The main issue compared to the Good bye to you decks is that you lack clone chip, which is why I did QT over ED, you need to naturally draw some of the parts. It still takes far too long to do, and only stands a chance against glacier.

Huh, interesting idea. So you need Overmind first, then the rest of your combo. This is kinda antithetical to how I build criminal decks-usually, I want my pieces to show up in any order, so I can be threatening while digging. To me, it looks like extending the draw time by one more card.

I like the medium include. Good way to turn money into points.

Certainly you can go piecemeal if the breakers are showing up and you're putting pressure on...but overmind out the gate locks down the game for a bit.

Sticking siphons is key to getting cash to get BG online and controlling. Ideally you want to hold tags to keep the full 10, in order to pay for BG faster.

I've been playing this a bit to some success, but I feel like the deck needs some space for Forged Activation Orders and possibly some Inside Job. Perhaps shave the dysons and crecentus?

Wouldn't infiltration / satellite up link be better/more flexible? Other than the destruction aspect, it does roughly the same thing.

The inside jobs would be to allow you to emergency shutdown something while also giving you flexibility, and sometimes they don't have enough credits to rez the ice so why not trash them?

@x3r0h0ur great idea. Though I think the path of least resistance to blackguard snitch might be Trade In in goodbye to you shaper.

I really want Silhouette to work. Have been experimenting with a Keyhole Eater flavor that's not horrible. Inside job and expose let's you know what's in remotes.
