Minimum you need Architect and Cell Portal (Cell Portal below the architect) in a server and a way to prevent jacking out(Lab Servers should be rushed asap). Midori can be used to bring in one of the two key pieces, usually I hold Cell Portal in hand and bring it in with Midori when I have a chance to infinite loop, replacing something like Pup or Tsurgi on the bottom of a server. Corporate Troubleshooter can be used to boost strength of whirlpool or Cell Portal. Install as many shadows as possible in the server using architect along with akitaro(if one was not installed already).. 2 Shadows and Akitaro net you 1 credit each loop assuming shadows are not broken. Architect can keep installing shadows and other cards to dig for shadows, remember you can use first subroutine to install an ice on a separate server trashing all of the ice in that server, use second sub to bring the shadow from archives to your loop server. Once you have infinite $, install a Junebug, and a Matrix Anaylzer, and advance it however many times you want. Finally install Bullfrog, and bring them over to your junebug.(runners can hold credits until this point technically, you can keep bidding 1, and they will eventually not be able to match and you can move them over to the Junebug)

This deck is for fun of course, It's not meant to be a serious tournament deck. D4vid beats the combo, I am unsure of a way to prevent D4vid from just breaking the Cell Portal consistently at the end of the server, since Corp. Troubleshooter is useless in that scenario, and it doesn't matter if you deplete their credits before they get there.

You can just kill them with a pup or tsurgi or advance all of your agendas behind ice and then score them all the next turn. DeusX does ruin some of the style part, you can see if they have it or can have it though by looking at available credits/programs/hardware/heap, it shouldn't be a surprise by the time your done comboing.

It's a neat little idea, sadly easily stopped or done quicker with less damage with Komainu.

There are a lot of things you can do with the Whirlpool/LabServers+Architect+Cell Portal combo though. I think that's the novelty here, previous versions were much clunkier since you had to have everything out in advance.

What about something like Data Mine or Mamba? The Data Mine isn't bad as long as they don't have Atman. Which is fine, no one installs Atman at 2 which means they'll run out of suckers through the loop eventually. Even then, they break it and you can then Architect something else, kill Data Mine, reinstall Data Mine.

Come on people! This deck is clearly not meant for real play. It is more an exercise of how much damage you can do at once. Great idea btw!!
