aSYNChronism (Post NAPD Most Wanted)

Minor updates:

Added CVS, removed Shattered Remains. Crick got dropped as whilst I love it, it wasn't giving me anything as Archives for this deck is so secure. Meru Mati was added as one more cheap Barrier as part of the Keegan Lane cute combo. I'm toying with it being a Wormhole!

Concept:

Nobody likes being tagged. Nobody likes you trashing their stuff. Turns out, they don't like it SO much, that even if you don't have much tag punishment, they'll spend a lot of their time removing tags on the off chance you do. Toss in a few cards they can't prevent you getting use from (Notably, Psychographics) to punish them for floating, and this deck gives you a lot of breathing room.

Agendas:

I have scored the GFI literally once, in maybe 50 games. Usually I'll actively aim to discard it & Jackson it back in. Generally I'll look to run the Astrotrain, score a free QPM or two thanks to Data Raven / Gutenberg, and occasionally I'll Psycho out a Beale. The strength of QPM plus News Team cannot be underestimated, it is really quite difficult for the Runner to reach 7 points against this.

Assets:

J-Ho is obvious. News Team is Shi.Kyu on crack, and is basically the MVP of the deck. If you land two of them, you've made it so they must steal at least 5 Agendas to win, which is frankly hilarious. Add in QPM, and you can see how the numbers start to stack against the Runner quite badly. Snare! is included purely for the tempo hit, or for tossing into a server when they're on low money but I know they can/might burst; I try to get them to run something expensive so I get a scoring window afterward.

Upgrades:

I hate Keyhole. I hate Medium. That is all. :) I occasionally use a Keegan as a bluff install to see whether they like to run no ICE, unadvanced remotes. Otherwise, his job is if you get a Keegan Lane to fire, always take their Fracter to re-enable the Wraparounds.

Operations:

Nothing unexpected here. Just good, strong, and importantly cheap cards. Sweeps Week often gets taken back as 'spare' Jackson recursion.

ICE:

ICE selection is intended to punish the most common breaker suites. You will make Mimic/Faust very sad indeed. If you get a Keegan Lane to fire, always take their Fracter to re-enable the Wraparounds. Turing is a secret MVP, and the scoring remote should generally be Turing and/or Wraparound, and a Data Raven for tag purposes.
