Badass Sword Chick

Be one with your blade. If anything stands in your way, cut it to pieces.

So this idea isn't originally mine; I first heard about a deck like this a long time ago on a Terminal7 podcast sometime in the Spin Cycle, and the idea seemed really cool.

Fast forward a lot of time and I finally got around to building it. I went into it with only one deckbuilding restriction: the only program in this deck is Gordian Blade. Everything else kinda fell into place from there. The gap in time actually gave it a lot of support.

How to play it: Mulligan and if necessary, power draw for Gordian Blade. Get some kind of economy down (you have lots of it) and try to get as much ice rezzed as safely as possible so that the corp has to keep spending money, and so you have lots of options when you eventually Escher. Whatever you can't break, tinker it and cut it in half with your spoon. Whatever you can't kill, move it away with Escher. Eventually you want an interface or two down so you can make gigantic R+D runs with Maker's Eye, but you can also camp remotes too if they're not playing the fast advance game. SoT can be used on basically anything here; Tinkering, Maker's Eye and Spooned are all great targets.

To field some of the early questions:

No paintbrush. No parasites. See deckbuilding restriction. I've considered 1x Lady for Wraparound because having a dog companion still fits the theme, but that's as far as I'll go. Study Guide might be cool, but not very thematic.

Yes, Wraparound sucks, but it's not hopeless. You have money. Kill it with Spooned if you can.

Your best solution vs Architect is probably Tinkering or Escher, but I haven't come across one yet.

Yes, this deck is janky as heck, but it can win vs decent players. No, I would never take this to a tournament. But man, is it a lot of fun to play.
