So anarch is pretty new to me, bar a brief fling with Wizzard a wee while ago, so please critique heavily.

Originally I was going to play with Kim (because... NEW CARDS! And my corp decks tend to be HB, which I found pretty ironic), but Noise seems to fit this a bit better. Still a bit unsure as to which ID to use, so any suggestions from more experienced anarchs would be much appreciated. Quite simply, this is a destruction deck. Start running R&D as soon as possible to get keyhole going, destroying ice left, right and centre. Keep clicking Ms. Jones to get money, personal touch and cyber feeder are also econ cards in my eyes for this deck. Periodically empty their HQ with hemorrhage, before a final glory run on archives or Hades shard to pick up all the lovely agendas. My thinking is that I do not actually access a single card all game until that final glory run.

In terms of card choices:

Eater and the cutlery suite go together so well, and are perfect for destroying servers/keyhole runs. Corroder is only for wraparound, and I'll probably get rid of it anyway. Swordsman is to be dealt with by parasites, that can be recurred with clonechip, whilst the cutlery can be recurred with same old thing.

Grimoire and the virus suite: Work together very well, obviously. Medium, chakana, and demo run all work well together due to the obvious pressure on archives, something hemorrhage can feed off too. Djinn for tutoring the viruses as well.

Not tested this at all yet, so definitely keen to see how it fares and what people think. Never did I think the day would come where I would embrace the Noise mill...

7 Feb 2015 Sathoon I will confess I don't like Noise because he's so damn annoying to play against, and double Hemorrhage is a rather scary card setup. (these are both good things). The thing I can't take my attention off though is just how many programs you have and how little actual memory you have to run your toys with. MemStrips would be your golden ticket. Largely because I don't think hosting Djinns in other Djinns is that good of an idea, nor can you expressly rely on them appearing before all your other programs so you can actually host them, because it won't happen if the programs are already down. I may be wrong, but I'm fairly sure Parasites cannot be used with Djinn because they can only be hosted on 1 card at a time (but a hosted card can host a card). Which would complicate the memory issue further. I'd possibly squint at the lack of effective means to get all those toys set up quickly; Kati jones takes a couple turns worth of clicking to get up to speed, and 5 cards over the minimum is kind of a big deal for 3 cards; Daily Casts tends to find it's way into my own Anarch decks frequently for the fact it's relatively cheap and effective sustained economy. Beyond that, using parasites to break Swordsman is not a bad play, but I really do recommend Mimic so you don't have to lose momentum running blind into it on a cutlery ICE trashing run, and aren't burned so much by other sentries like Komainu . I'd think about dropping the Chakanas just so you can squeeze Special Order in so you can better pre-empt swordsman, but that's just me and I hate that uncertainty with AIs these days.
