A unique Noise archetype focusing on the synergy between Doppelgänger and Hemorrhage. Plus a Noise deck without Cache/Aesop's! Weird! I really want some feedback, I would love to try and improve the deck.

Card choices:

-Hemorrhage: This is basically the card the deck is built around. This is what we will use to pressure HQ, hopefully trashing at least one card every turn. I personally believe this is almost stronger than Keyhole, because while Keyhole allows you to attack key cards - Hemorrhage also works to drain clicks as the corp has to draw back up. Generally you don't want counters to sit on here. Try and click them away when there are 2+.

-Doppelgänger: The means by which we will charge Hemorrhage. Obviously if you can get in somewhere useful, do that (e.g. Keyhole or an open server). If not, just go for archives. Assuming you're somewhat set-up it is relatively easy to charge your Hemorrhage while drawing cards with John Masanori

-Gravedigger/Cutlery/Eater/Parasite: Mostly just adding to the disruption of the corp. I personally try and focus on archives/R&D being iceless.

-Magnum Opus: Since we're forgoing Cache/Aesop's, we need some money somehow. These should hopefully keep us rich enough to be able to do whatever we want. Not quite as click efficient as Cache, but allows us more control over our own economy. Potentially some mem issues if you have to install Eater/Mimic/Keyhole/Magnum, but you should be able to play around this.

-Archives Interface: IMO an underrated card, but even if it wasn't - we really want this here. Cards like Cyberdex Virus Suite in Archives would screw with us so badly. Plus it's still useful even if the corp isn't running that. Removing Jacksons/Scorched/Shocks from the game? Yes please. It does have some anti-synergy with Eater, but that's why I try and destroy ice on Archives

-Account Siphon: Mostly there for HQ pressure, plus plenty of recursion.

-Sacrificial Clone: Purely here for flavor reasons

My ideal turns with this deck would involve 2 Hemorrhage, Doppelgänger, John Masanori, Keyhole, and Datasuckers on the board. Keyhole R&D, Doppelgäanger archives, Click away two HQ cards, and then Magnum (or whatever you want).

Like I said, I'd love feedback or suggestions

I like your idea and it's good to see a Noise deck that wants to run a lot however I'm not convinced magnum opus is the best option with all the other programs. Maybe security testing and Kati would be good as sustainable economy?

Yeah, I could definitely see Security Testing doing work here. My only hesitations are the influence value (you'd either have to only include 2 security testing or take out Siphon) and the possibility of being locked out by a glacier deck. This deck really really needs successful runs to do anything. Of course, Kati helps - but then you need to cut some other cards.

But yeah, it definitely could work. Try making it and let me know how it goes!

The real question is: is a second chance purchased through the ashes of your Sacrificial Clone a life worth living?

If you are going to base your entire economy around Opus, then you need to make sure you see one every game. I would lose the Account Siphon for an SMC. Use the extra influence to cut one SoT for a Utopia Shard. That cards causes problems for just about every corp, but especially against Weyland decks holding onto Scorched, Sea, and/or Punitive.

I think Medium + Security Testing would be better than Keyhole + Magnum Opus. You can sec test R&D, get a medium token and get there a second time with Doppelgänger to see 2 brand new cards! Besides, medium is a virus...

18 Mar 2015 Spaceman_Spiff

Yeah, but if I include Medium I'll have to change the entire icebreaker package, since it doesn't work with Eater

Day Job and Liberated are the standard Anarch econ. I know Day Job turns off Hemorrhage and Liberated is slow but when you free up that influence you can really make the deck sing.

-3 Magnum -1 Datasucker +2 Day Job +2 Liberated

They give you enough punch to make runs count. With 3 Hemorrhage out and Doppel you need one click for six tokens. Liberated and Day Job help you afford those runs.

I'm interested in trying this, but dropping Opus in favor of another Siphon and Lampreys. I think Siphon/Lamprey is solid, since a purge is the worst thing to do against a runner who is ahead.

Why Gravedigger? You are rarely trashing cards that are installed, perhaps these could be dropped for Lampreys. If you plan to be tagged, Joshua B is awesome card to run- extra clicks for extra runs/keyholes, and a 2 credit tax to a corp to trash them while you're tagged, but you would probably want to drop the Clone for an actual Plascrete since being tagged is getting more and more dangerous. As it stands now I think the argument could be made that without a few more usable viruses you might be better running Whizzard, but you should not run Whizzard, because this triple-central pressure is too great to pass up. A nice twist to a tag-me noise is making the corp spend a whole turn purging to not keep them locked down in a low-credit state where you can mill and run aggressively. I'm interested in what your testing since the 17th has revealed! I'll be in touch about my own results. Thanks for sharing!

I really like the idea of this deck alot!

I think to solve your Magnum Opus memory issue though, just run Tri-maf Contact and drop your tags. It frees up 3 influence and having multiple out feels just like an Opus.

With the free influence, you could drop a John Masanori and run a Hostage, which could look for either a TMC or John depending on what you need at the time. Granted, I don't mind using clicks to search for stuff, I'm a Shaper at heart

Also, -1 Gravedigger and -1 Hemorrhage would open up room for 2 Djinn, which would allow you to tutor for viruses, and you can host Keyhole on it
