In preparation for the summer GNK I decided to start my own deck-building challenge: using 3 copies each of the cards featured on the prizes. Join me in this amazing journey into nonsense, it's a great opportunity to explore underdog cards and bring original ideas into the mix. Or just more jank (I look forward to seeing a GNK winner corp with 3 Swordsman and 3 Enforcer in it lol).

This deck is my first attempt at the 3 Femme Fatale + 3 Tri-maf Contact concept. I guess I ended up building it this way just because the deck I was trying out before this one was Scholar of Stealth. I brought Tri-Femme Hayley to a nearby GNK with basically no prior testing and it went so bad (or I piloted it so badly) that I lost all the matches I played. I was always short of credits, clicks or cards.

If you think this deck can be tweaked into something worth playing, please share your thoughts. Right now I feel the best I can get out of it is install PW and Tri-maf with one click, host a Femme on PW and stimhack onto a random target for later scavenging, and even in that case I could end up with a tag and 2 cards in hand during the corp turn more often than not.

But main reason I am posting it is to gather advice on the best ways to work 3 Femme Fatale and 3 Tri-maf Contact into a deck. Any deck actually.

I am still trying to figure out which ID could make best use of these cards. Criminal (maybe Leela?) seems the obvious choice even just for the influence save but recently I don't think I have played the faction enough to come up with anything that makes sense....

I don't know what sets will be legal, but if you have access to the last few packs in the SanSan cycle there's some fun new stuff you can do with tags.

Film Critic + The Source + New Angeles City Hall is a combo I keep seeing crop up. FC is already good, but putting a damper on scoring while avoiding tags seems like something useful to you.

Paparazzi + Data Leak Reversal + Wireless Net Pavilion + Fall Guy is another fun combo that slots into a resource-heavy Hayley build easily. If you make Tri-maf Contact expensive enough to trash, the corp will either leave it or take a massive tempo loss.

London Library + Femme Fatale is obviously great.

Multiple copies of Tri-maf Contact seem like they would play well with Hyperdriver + Leprechaun, which is fantastic in Hayley.

If you are going to go all-out on the Femmes, I'd look to play them for cheap. Code Siphon, Test Run, Retrieval Run all seem like good ideas. I really don't see why 3x Femme Fatale and 3x Tri-maf Contact can't work swimmingly in Hayley. It's certainly not the best, but that isn't really the point.

Thanks I had completely forgot about the London Library + Femme Fatale combo. It sounds like something I want to try at some point. I am not sure what to take out though.

Film Critic + The Source + New Angeles City Hall also sounds cool but I think I would end up with a completely different build.

For now I just made the following changes, I think I can get setup faster this way (and I get to use the ability during corp's turn as well):

-3x Career Fair for +3 Street Peddler -2x Earthrise Hotel for + 1x Kati Jones and +1x Brain Cage -1x Synthetic Blood for +1x Sacrificial Construct -1x Self-modifying Code for +1x Scavenge

I need to play some more with this idea and get used to Tri-maf's downside before I can be sure whether it makes sense. At the moment I keep ending my turn with less than 3 cards and get punished for it.
