I think it would be far better to build a MaxX deck with Wyldside, recursion, and more cards than usual to really use her ability to the fullest. Maybe build build a tower deck (I'm thinking 80+ cards)? I really should look up all the probabilities on paper to see if it's better.

...

Joke aside, have you considered going for Deus X instead of Levy AR Lab Access? Levy helps you recur your events, but 3 influence pips is pretty steep, and Deus Ex protects you from PE just the same.

I'm not concerned with PE that much...deus is only good if you can reoccur it that much. I don't think its better than levy. Levy just keeps giving you options, and allows you to draw without fearing runnign out of cards/options. Deus wouldn't do much work at all I'm afraid.

@x3r0h0ur I like this idea. I think you are definitely correct that MaxX's synergy with Retrieval Run is too good to pass up given that she gets stuff in the trash so fast that you can get things installed even on the first turn. I'm thinking of 3 Femme, 3 Morning Star and 3 Eater with parasite and spooned/forked support so you could drop the mimic and yog, but I like the slim program suite. Thoughts on swapping out the Plascrete and Inject for 3 steelskin? I haven't proxied this yet, but am curious whether you think Inject is overkill in MaxX as I don't want to have too much in hand, but it works so well with retrieval run. Good ideas and thanks for posting.

Thanks, upon further testing I have added eater and more cutlery, removing parasite for now. However I kept yog, and removed mimic. I think I have enough money to run with just femme, and yog is just too good to pass up, since he idea is to run cheap so you can run lots. After game night next week I expect to post v2. I think eater helps ensure your retrun can't get stuffed.

And hilariously top deck right now, the whizzard inject ppvp one, looks a lot like this and a quetzal deck I made. This one even had torch in it at one point! Inject anarch on the rise???
