The idea is that Laamb allows you to convert a Ice to barrier. If every ice that you encounter is a barrier than [Quetzal](Quetzal: Free Spirit) and Poison Vial can get through a wide range of Ice with no problems.
Laamb + Econ are the main things that you want in your starting hand.
You want to get Laamb down so that you don't get locked out of servers. Then Maw, Chastushka, and Finality to get the accesses you need to win.
Buzzsaw and Mimic - These breakers are here to handle the low cost code gates and sentries cheaply.
Hippo - The deck doesn't do too well with large amounts of ice on a single server, due to the once per turn stipulation on [Quetzal](Quetzal: Free Spirit). So you can use Hippo to get rid of some of the ice on your target server to make sure that they can't lock you out.
Botulus and Hush - These will help deal with all of the problematic ice that are hard to get through and have on encounter effects. Things like Brân 1.0, Tollbooth, Valentão, Trebuchet, and Pharos.
Career Fair - Here to reduce the cost of Liberated Account, but can also help to get a Daily Casts out in a pinch.
No One Home - This can help you avoid some of the tags from an Oppo Research or help out if you run into a Flatline deck without some Steelskin Scarrings in hand.
Pinhole Threading and No Free Lunch - Tech cards to help with tags on the corp turn and troublesome assets and upgrades (like Rashida Jaheem and Manegarm Skunkworks).

Why 3 laamb and only 2 vials? vials aren´t infinite (you´re not padma), so the more you have the better... also, stargate could be nice as long-lasting "multiaccess" |

Additionally, Stargate is a really good suggestion. I didn't even think about it. I usually make startup decks and have just started dipping into the world of standard. |
Thanks for building this! I'd been thinking about Quetzal-Laamb since the unban but have been way too lazy to build it. I'll give it a try and report back :)
