Defy conventions, exploit the meta, and get your opponent thinking.
At our 2016 store champs I did reasonably well with my corp deck winning all but 1 match and my Runner losing all but 1 match.
In my local gaming group I am known for my love of mind games in Jinteki decks, and promised I was going to bring a Jinteki deck to the champs. When they learned I was taking Near-Earth Hub: Broadcast Center I received a reasonable amount of "boos"...little did they know.
When you're up against NEH you need to keep them poor, checking and trash things, and arm your Plascretes quickly. Well, here, neither of those things help. Install a Mimic to reduce the risk of faceplanting an Architect, but what if it's a Cortex Lock? Psychic Field punishes remote checks, and Project Junebug allows for mind games play, especially as it can be Astro'ed for increased sting...but what if it's a Project Beale being over-advanced?
Game 1 - Tricked Chaos Theory into believing my 12 advanced Project Junebug was a Project Beale I was trying to score out. Flatline.
Game 2 - Neural EMPed the remaining cards of an aggressive ICE Destruction Reina, before she faceplanted into a Snare! Flatline.
Game 3 - 1 turn away from winning against an Eater Keyhole Val deck, but a Same-Old-Thing-Blackmail on HQ out of desperation snagged him the winning agenda.
Game 4 - An aggressive Whizzard faceplanted into Cortex Lock on his 3rd click, drew a card on his 4th, and received a double Neural EMP on my second turn. Flatline.
Money is never an issue. Cheap ICE, and with the standard NBN money generating kit it allowed enough for a Restructure, letting me float about 20 credits on average. Product Placement is a must for this deck, generating lots of money and letting you fake out a SanSan City Grid on a trap.
It's a Wolf in sheep's clothing, and although it's NEH the Runners had to stop and think, doubting their instincts. So much fun was had, and I will be modifying this for the MWL list.

I didn't perform that well overall, but it was a good day. All the games were exciting to say the least! :) |

:O I was that game 1 chaos theory player! Well played sir!
I was 6-0 on points before it, FWIW.
