Andy Anarch Suite with PC/Kati/hostage

ishbu 3

Andy with anarch fixed breakers + datasucker suite.

Replaces event based econ/draw with 3xHostage, 1xPC and 2xKati. This ensures you'll have both up fairly early most games. Can't go tag me as easy like other criminal builds but much more dependable. Can drop an event or two for plascretes depending on your meta.

Dream opening hand probably has: Sure Gamble, Daily Casts, and Desperado. Dirty laundry or datasucker great early as well. Which is pretty easy to hit with 9 card hand plus a mull.

Deck has problems late game vs big ice (TB etc), and real weakness is only one femme and no way to move its marker around.

Loving the Hostage+PC. Wouldn't you add a Mr. Li as well?

Hu scrap that, Mr. Li hates PC. A John Masanori then? Because if you have PC or Kati in your starting hand, 2 of your 3 Hostage become useless.

Hostage becomes useless exactly when it needs to... i.e when you have both PC and Kati in play

Of course you prefer to draw your both the PC and Kati. What this mostly allows you to do is get the same/better draw numbers as running 3x Kati 3x PC at 1/3rd the influence.

Right. Still, adding a single Masanori won't preclude your chance to get both PC and KJ, and will allow you to use subsequent Hostage. A free draw each turn can be powerful.

Hmm yeah mostly I just haven't figured out how to use masanori properly yet. I'll often put him out too early and gimp myself. Will have to test it some more

Any thoughts on playing a copy of helpful AI and potentially going Full power Underworld Contacts instead of daily casts? Liking the deck!
