This deck is going for click compression by using Autoscripter with London Library to install 2 programs for 1 click. Throw in a Doppelgänger for a 2-run click, and use the Bird Breaker’s ability to return them to hand without spending more clicks.

Basic plan is to get Doppelgänger , the Library and Scripter out ASAP with supporting pieces of New Angeles City Hall for tag protection (and last click Account Siphon) and Film Critic to protect it. The Source is there to slow down FA shenanigans.

Film Critic should be your first Hostage target, followed by The Source and Guru Davinder – although I would get the Guru out early if you think you are playing a kill deck, or Jinteki – the Guru laughs at Snare! and most Jinteki traps, and the Fall Guy are backup if you don’t have the creds to pay the Guru his tribute, or to save The Source or NACH if you get an agenda early without the Film Critic.

There is the current standard Criminal econ package of Siphon, Temüjin Contract and Sure Gamble, with a backup Kati Jones if you need her, which you might if facing asset spam.

It will be interesting to see when/if they drop the Barrier Bird Breaker to complete the set. Until then, Corroder will have to do. I did think about using Paperclip, but I am not sure if it interacts with the Library, as its wording is quite specific: to “install a program from your grip, ignoring the install cost”, and the power of Paperclip is that it installs from your Heap, not your Grip.

The Forged Activation Orders are there if you manage to derez something tasty – like a Tollbooth – and they don’t have the creds to rez it again, immediately.

With all the pieces out, you could effectively be getting 6 clicks worth of value out of 4 clicks – even more if you include the abilities of NACH for clickless tag avoidance (i.e. siphons) and not having to uninstall the Bird Breakers from the Library.

Love the concept of London Library + Bird Suite. I haven't had a chance to test it yet myself, but I have been theory crafting the hell out of it.

I do think you should strongly consider Paperclip. You can host it on London Library and just let it get trashed the next turn if you want so that you can pull it out the next time you need it. Also it tends to save you a credit or two on most Barriers, which is efficiency I think you're going to need if you're paying out the nose to break Codegates and Sentries. I'd probably drop the Guru and make the swap unless PE or PU is big in your meta. The tag-avoidance should thrawt most Meat Damage packages.

I'm not sure if it'd be possible to make cuts for them, but some Data Suckers are also pretty attractive, considering you already have Temujin and Doppelganger to load them up easily. It seems like they would help with Bird Breakers alot due to their awkward credit to strength ratios.

I do hope you keep testing this, it seems like a lot of fun and I think the potential is there for it to be somewhat competitive.

The other option to consider instead of Datasuckers, are LLDS Processors.

The Guru is a meta call. Lots of Prisec and out-of-faction Snares and Psychic Fields... and when you have to keep the Bird Breakers in hand to keep using them, then a lucky Net or Meat Damage when you have no recursion can ruin your day.
