Have you also considered Underway Renovation as a way to stop their rig getting built in the first place? |

If you are sold on Marcus Batty, consider packing Taurus. You aren't running a kill suite, but you can use GRNDL money to make a Taurus off of Batty kill consoles, which seems like it would be worthwhile. |

Firstly, thanks for all the suggestions!
Marcus Batty allows me to kill peoples breakers as they are running, and is generally one of the important parts of the deck. A third Jackson Howard seems good, especially now that I have slots to fill. Wormhole is basically either rig kill or another end the run depending what is up, but you are correct, it is expensive and possibly 2 is correct. The design of the deck involves taking badpub as part of its natural operation, and not really caring since the focus is on killing their breakers rather than having tough ice. With that in mind, anything that traces is very awkward to use, since they will have lots of badpub, and probably spare money, so Assassin seems less effective. Cortex Lock is definitely interesting as a oneoff, will definitely try it. Blackmail I think is going to be hard to beat, and I would lose too much making my deck work well against it, if anything more Shattered Remains or other bait cards to waste it would be the best approach I think.
Flare suffers the same issues as the other tracers mentioned earlier.
At the moment, I am most concerned about Parasite recursion, and shapers that can rebuild after a lot of damage, so curious if anyone has good ideas for answers to those issues. |
First of all I think you need to go up to 49 cards to lower your agenda density (also cut 1xHostile Takeover). Marcus Batty seems a bit thin here: you probably better off with Will-o'-the-Wisp. If you run Power Shutdown you will need the third Jackson. That much Wormhole seems too bad. It doesn't do anything on its own, cut 2x and add Assassin instead. Have you considered Cortex Lock? Also Elizabeth Mills seems very useful here - otherwise you are going to suffer against #Blackmail.
