Premise: I am normally bad at building decks because I just enjoy the jank design space but I think this is actually good.


Just a suggestion...

This is a rush Issuaq deck. You want to play fast, take reasonable risks and basically play this as a combo deck.

Facecheck is dangerous for the runner and you have a few EtR options for the remote.

Install on remote and score an agenda asap by advancing on install and then Seamless Launch and/or The Holo Man. Anoetic is not mandatory but nice to have. You should be able to score the first agenda before the runner can react. Sometimes even putting 3 advancements on a Fuji and then Seamless next turn is a possible way to go.

You will win a fair amount of game at 5 agenda points plus two tokens on Issuaq Adaptics: Sustaining Diversity.

Why not Rashida Jaheem? Because we want to R U S H. If you have clicks and credits to install and rez an ICE on remote, then you want an agenda behind it. Mindscaping is working very good here because it allows to gain a couple of credits, drawing and manipulating the top of R&D in one click. So, here I prefer Mindscaping over Rashida.

You may want to double ICE the remote against Arissana and crims. Anoetic Void is helping against crims but Arissana can normally run multiple times for cheap.

If you are not winning with this deck is because you are not rushing enough. :D

Awesome. I dare you to make it a 45 cards sized deck haha!

Adding The Holo Man is a genius idea!

Did you try Karunā? It is one of the few sentry in jinteki that stops a run.

Cheers!

I would only run Karunā to replace Phoneutria but the tag coming from Phoneutria is quite taxing, so I like it. I was also testing 1x and 2x of Lotus Field instead of Enigma but it was too expensive and the lost click on Enigma on a facecheck is good for the rush project. ;)
