This is a Smoke build that I've been working on for about a month now and it managed to only drop 2 games on the day. One to an NEH Kill that got their combo off turn 3 and one game in the finals to a stupid mistake on my part by face-checking a Mausolus with an empty hand. I got my revenge on that NEH deck earlier in the cut, though.

The thing about this deck is that it's deceptively fast to set up, makes good money for it's expensive breaker suite, and has enough silver bullets to kill an army of werewolves. Just mulligan for MOpus, SMC out Baba, Test Run whatever you haven't drawn by then, Install Atman at Zero and SIFR your way to victory. In most of my games I only ever needed Atman at Zero...a testament to the Ice-Light Meta we're seeing right now.

The one card most people criticize in this build (Feedback Filter) was a meta call that did tons of work on the day and won me a clutch game against PE. If you're expecting Jinteki in your meta, then don't skimp on the protection. MOpus + Temujin makes more than enough money for you handle its cost. Also, since you're running two AIs as your main breakers, Hunting Grounds will also do work to turn off IP Block/Chiyashi/etc.

@InkEyes- You probably need to delete cookies and empty your browser cache. NRDB is not showing his 2x Sifr to you.

This deck did set up a lot faster than I expected it would against my rush GRNDL deck that day. Sifr was a 100% life saver in our game and the combo with Atman is very strong.

Pretty sure Hunting grounds does nothing against Chiyashi

Nice to see this spicy brew turn out so well! Might be a silly question, but would you change anything for an asset spam-heavy meta, or do you find it just has enough money already?

@sunlance It has Magnum Opus and Temujin already, and there's a huge benefit to using Net Mercur against asset spam - use its credit to trash, and put a credit back on it, so you essentially reduce the trash cost of every asset by 1. That's as good as Valencia's fight against asset spam.

I don't know if it's enough to really deal with it, but it looks like it'd have some game there.

@SpellSlinger Shaper w/Opus? Slot Feedback Filter (team #FF). Kills PE and PU. Thumbs up!

hey man i love ur deck but i struggle with either the MU or the stealth credits in some matchups. Since u cannot use mopus, atman 0 & whole breaker suite on Baba Yaga at the same time, especially not when u wanna have clot installed aswell, i wonder what to cut to get 2 more mu?

@Dzerards hmm, thought Chiyashi was an on encounter effect. Ah well, still does work! Stopped a few IP Blocks when it needed to.

``@1337J4NK5P4MM3R` I found it didn't need the whole rig at once. If I needed a Clot I would just trash whatever breaker I hadn't been using. If I got 2/3 of my suite on Yaga then Atman at zero did the work of the third breaker I was missing. The breakers/Programs are definitely something you have to play by ear and adapt to the game state as needed.
