Deck valid after Fifth Rotation |
Mitosis is an interesting card and interacts favorably with the identity of another faction, Pravdivost. Pravdivost makes threats like Cerebral Overwriter or Chekist Scion even more dangerous, while also representing scoring opportunities between Validisibirks and Agenda's themselves that the runner almost has to check.
The name of the deck is a reference to an old deck by the same name which I remembered (and in turn is a reference to the game show "Deal or no Deal?". I built this version without looking at that old list since the cards don't match up anyway, but there are a lot of surprising similarities due to analogues. Matrix Analyzer becomes Vasilisa, Ghost Branch becomes Checkist Scion, and of course Mushin no Shin becomes Mitosis.
The biggest hurdle for this deck is influence. Since Urtica Cipher costs the same amount of influence as Overwriter (as opposed to Project Junebug that cost only 1 influence), Overwriter kind of becomes the better option. The deck has enough money. To facilitate that though that needs Marilyn Campaign. And of course Mitosis eats a lot of influence on its own. I really wish I could fit a Trick of Light, Clearinghouse or Akhet in here.
You can also try to engineer a kill between Overwriter and Orbital Superiority, but I guess Orbital could be removed for the third Cryptocrash or a Remastered Edition. Another path to victory is Backroom Machinations through tag spamming (Vasilisa is surprisingly disrespected on last click runs) and of course the dreaded Psycho-Beale.
The rest of the deck is pretty much forcing a credit advantage between your asset spam and credit-eating ice to keep your Bellonas safe.
