Jolly Miller

Chuftbot 856

There was a Jolly Miller once

Lived on the Wyldside

He installed cards from morn till night

From Imps to Ixodidae

And this the burden of his stack

Forever used to be

I run for nobody, no, not I

So nobody scorches me

==========================

GAMEPLAN:

Don't run. Running is dumb. Play Netinstaller instead, and when the corp loses their entire deck they will be very sad. Darwin is only here to convince the corp to purge periodically, and maaaaybe run archives if you want the game to end a little faster.

Fisk Investment Seminar is crazy good. Who cares if the cards are in their hand? They can't win if they don't have a deck. Same Old Thing is for more Fisky goodness. Same Old your Deja Vus for more sexy milling goodness, be it a Fisk or two Caches (or some other appropriate virus, but why not the one that makes you money?)

Beyond that it's a crapton of cheap viruses. Aesop to keep the creds flowing. Cyberfeeder saves you a looooot of money. Gravedigger is really just there because it's cheap, but feel free to click it if you take a moment to Imp a SanSan or something. But honestly, what are you doing running?

EXCLUSIONS

Grimoire? Psh. PSH. That's for people that run. You're going to pawn something every turn because running is for suckers. Ditto Medium, ditto Faust, ditto D4v1d, and extra ditto for Parasite because they have to REZ ICE for that! You'll never get to play that, you're not running!

FINAL THOUGHTS

Thanks Fisk. We'll always remember your show, even if you end up living in boxes and binders everywhere.

Cards 47-49 could be 3x Trope. Now wouldn't that be great?

46-48 even.

If you play Same Old Thing for Fisk Investment Seminar, aren't you technically using FIS on your third click? Is this a legal move?

@ryangibson86 Yooooou would be correct sir! I missed that (admittedly ancient ruling). Editing to reflect. Still a great card for this though.

@ChuftbotOh man, you had my mill-related hopes up for a while there! Yeah, it's still great. Gonna have to give this a go!

@FarCryFromHuman Trope would be pretty sexy if you get it early. I would gladly burn it with just a couple counters if it meant more Fisks/Caches. I don't like going over decksize much though. Maybe kick out a Clot and and tossing in two? 46 is reasonable.
