Argus will Scorch your Puni(tive) Ass v1.1

dasher 161

My take on a Argus/Scorch/Punitive deck.

The Argus Security: Protection Guaranteed identity lends itself well to both Scorched Earth and Punitive Counterstrike, so this deck tries to keep the option of both on the table.

With only 7 agendas, there is little chance of agenda flood in your HQ, and even of there is, it still works to your benefit if you have a Scorch and/or Punitive in hand. With at least 1 The Cleaners scored, then the Scorch/Punitive threat become even higher.

Data Raven is there for a tag threat, but as they very rarely hit, the SEA Sources are a must to keep the Scorch threat high.

GRNDL Refinery is an excellent econ card to get early behind a piece of ICE; I have regularly been able to get 12 to 20 credits from it in the early game.

Housekeeping is a lovely little niggle card to make the runner have to make another decision that they don't want to.
