Enter The Matrix

LSK 4674

Here's a pretty good Ayla deck, I think! It's been able to beat basically everything except asset spam decks for me.

@dheraz got me playing with Deus X / Adjusted Matrix and it's a lot more potent than I expected. Beth and Rachel Beckman give you two extra clicks, and e3 Feedback Implants does what it always does. You can break into servers super early and threaten R&D runs through 4-5 pieces of ice late.

There's a lot of slots here dedicated to hate cards, something Shapers have been able to do pretty effectively for a while, and Ayla in particular is great at finding the ones you need. You can slot Feedback Filter if you're playing against Biolock decks, and might even be able to justify something like Indexing/Interdiction to try and handle the Moon decks.

Why E3 feedback implants? you can break all ice types with at least 1credit to 1 subroutine efficiency. Is it just for bioroids? If so it seems like a waste of 4 influence

@willsta It's to combo with Adjusted Matrix.

Honest question as I'm new to deckbuilding: how do you keep money flowing in this game? Does Beth bring in enough money to get your Magnum Opus out, then you use that finance other cards?

@Zepheus A lot of slower shaper decks can rely on Magnum Opus really effectively, which you mulligan for aggressively (especially in Bios!) As long as you only require the money for playing cards and important runs, it can fund your set up in its entirety - if slowly. Here, your late game rig is incredibly cheap because you aren't paying to boost strength, so that Opus money is all you need.

@ZepheusI will add, Opus combos really well with a six-click turn!

Not gonna lie, Adjusted Matrix on DX is really interesting! Figures if anyone would find something to do with a card that at first glance didn't even work, it would be you. :)

How much better is Ayla than Kate for this?
