By any means

Diogene 4224

There are other ways to deal with Jinteki: Personal Evolution when doing Counter Surveillance : trash their cards (and a massive amount of them at that). Otherwise, this is a regular tag me deck.

This deck is inspired by Sebastiank, after watching him battle it out with Sokka at Accelerated Meta Test of May 2023.

This is similar to my previous iteration.

Mulligan plan : Obelus or money.

Game plan : tag yourself, make lots of money, and run to see a massive amount of cards for the win.

Here are the keys points of the deck :

  • Null: Whistleblower prints money from any cards, with a value of 3 or 4 when using the ID ability. Bonus point for style if you target Steelskin Scarring.
  • By Any Means will let you trash everything you see with Counter Surveillance, without taking damage from Snare! or Sting!. You can use it without support because you will probably have enough cards in hand and you will replenish your hand after. Otherwise, you can put Jarogniew Mercs to pay for those self meat damages. This is a good counter to Jinteki: Personal Evolution, but also work against any other corp, as taking our cards might slow their gameplan quite a bit.
  • The difference between using Sabotage and using By Any Means, is that you know what you trashed and you can chose where you intend to (R&D or HQ),
  • There are some flex slots. You could make space for Pinhole Threading and Hush by taking out a Bravado and the Running Hot.
  • Another card that could be slotted is Acacia, as demonstrated by Sebastiank in Sokka's video.

This is fun!
