The runner thinks they are choosing where to run and how they are going to win but they are merely a microscopic cog in your catastrophic plan.

This is the corp deck that I took to 7th/8th place at the Sydney regionals. I had all intentions of taking a Sync Boom deck but the week of the tournament I built a janky AgInfusion deck with Shipment From Tennin and found out it actually had some legs.

How To Play

This deck plays by securing centrals and then fast advancing agendas in the open. You want a nasty piece of ICE (ideally Chiyashi or DNA Tracker but Komainu can do if you cannot find the others) rezzed on the outside of a server. Once you have that, every time they want to run another server they must first get bounced into the one of your big ICE and pay 7-9 credits. It is amazing how quickly the runner's credit pool can diminish. From there you either fast advance an agenda or get lots of money from Bryan Stinson.

A lot of the deck works because people do not know what to expect from AgInfusion. It works by creating a fork that lasts the entirety of the game - running your ICE. Initially runners are hesitant to run the scary unknown Jinteki ICE. You then use Shipment From Tennin to score your first agenda. They then become more aggressive at which point they go low on credits through your taxing servers allowing you to burst up with Stinson. This enables you to play even more of your big ICE and makes servers even more taxing. The runner is now effectively forced into submission unable to get through your servers.

You very rarely create a remote to score out of. The exception is to score the first Medical Breakthrough. Rushing that out early behind a Chimera is not a bad idea. If they get past it and steal it you now have six agendas you can fast advance.

Cards

Agendas

I think the 9 agenda point suite is correct. I initially had the two The Future Perfects as three Nisei NK IIs but I found myself being agenda flooded too often. While I have never scored a The Future Perfect on the day, the fact it protects itself is key. Plus it gives you an extra card in your deck.

Braintrust, Medical Breakthrough and Philotic Entanglement are auto-includes for fast advance Jinteki.

Assets and Upgrades

Trashable cards are low. This is good against Whizzard and decks teching for asset spam.

Two Cyberdex Virus Suites are there for Clot and Medium to a lesser extent - if you have a good ICE on R&D they cannot run too many times.

Bryan Stinson can make you a heap of money which you need with all your big ICE.

Jackson Howard because you are playing corp.

Operations

Hedge Fund, IPO, Restructure and Celebrity Gift are your economy. The first three can be reused with Bryan to make obscene amounts of money. I never really had any issues with money. More often than not you will get to 20+ credits.

Biotic Labor and Shipment From Tennin are there to fast advance your agendas and your win conditions.

Scarcity of Resources is in as a counter current to Employee Strike (which can really ruin your day). But you can fast advance an agenda to turn that off too. I've been burnt playing a Scarcity of Resources to slow the runner down but then they play Strike which ruins my plan. They could be Enforced Curfew to save on some money.

One Preemptive Action to mainly get your FA cards back but also econ or ICE if that is what you need.

ICE

Vanilla, Enigma and Chimera are cheap ETRs. I find having seven allows you to reliably see them early to slow the runner down. Many times they do not run anyway especially once you get above 8 credits. Keep them unrezzed and allow single accesses because having them unrezzed at the based of the server will help you later on in the game where they run through your taxing ICE only to get bounced into more taxing ICE. Chimera is good because it de-rezzed itself.

Komainu is punishing enough in the right circumstance.

Chiyashi and DNA Tracker are what you want to see though. These are your ICE which will make the runner's life hell.

Conclusion

I believe AgInfusion is a good meta call because it has built in defence for Siphon, Indexing, Deep Data Mining and many other things. And because it is new, some people just forget about its ability and get forced into a Chiyashi. Employee Strikes into high impact runs suck but as long as you can clear the Strike shortly after you should be able to recover pretty easily. Most importantly, this deck is quite fun. It can be very oppressive but in a Real Netrunner un-comboey kind of way. I highly recommend giving it a go.
