A Strength 10 Yog to open everything

Sunkain 2

Let's troll,

2 net ready eyes, 3 personal touch + dinosaurus on Yog.0

Paint brush to support

All-nighter to go faster

Many tutors to get your programs as fast as possible

Dagger for tough ices

Events that help you go through your deck quickly to get your rig fast

I've had a few good match up with this deck. Once you have your yog and start boosting it, you can run very easily. Thanks to your six tutors, it's usually easy to get or pay for through magnum opus. Net ready eyes + i've had worse is also a good combo. Clone chip and Levy Ar Lab Access in case you get trashed...

Any thoughts ?

Hate to tell you this, but Net Ready Eyes is unique (that's what the little diamond means). That means you max out at a 9-strength Yog. That's enough to break most things in the game, but not everything, the most notable loss being against Curtain Wall out of Blue Sun. Honestly, I would probably just go with Yogasaurus alongside some Datasuckers. The Stimhacks are the easiest things to drop--Dagger requires stealth credits, and Yog is either free or useless, so they aren't really helping you much.

I'm also not sure that you need both Kati and Magnum Opus. If you go credits+credits+take on Kati, that's exactly the same as if you Opused three times, but spaced out over several turns.

Also, why Dyson Mem Chip? Akamatsu Mem Chip is in faction, so unless you need the link it seems like a better option.

I agree with all of @tiedyedvortex's comments. Run Akamatsus over Dysons, and get some Datasuckers. I'd also recommend a full set of Scavenges, as they can let you put your Yog.0 out right away while drawing into your Dinosaurus, plus can be used to re-target Femme, host already-installed programs on Leprechaun, and cheat programs out for 3 and 2 using Test Run.

All-Nighter doesn't save you any clicks unless you're Hayley. It just lets you bank them for another turn. Considering Kit's ability is strongest at the start of the game when servers are single ICE'd, it seems like this could be better filled with something like Same Old Thing and Tinkering.

@tiedyedvortex That is not something I knew... And luckily I haven't had any games with both installed... The more you know ! For big Ice, I usually use my Dagger + Paintbrush. I wanted to try something a bit different than the usual datasucker + Yogsaurus. In my meta, there are a lot of fans of traces and links protected me a little. I could probably save space with the kati and the stimhacks... I will put another version of this deck soon. Thanks for the help !

@psi_lifeup I liked All-Nighter because it allowed me to store some clicks when I need to use Paintbrush multiple times in the mid game. I could maube use a Hyperdriver...

@FarCryFromHuman, I don't understand how to use scavenges is such a way. I would have to get more retrieval from my heap, don't I ? I know it's a good card but i have trouble understanding your combos :)

Yogasaurus needs 3x Scavenge. If you draw Yog before Dino, you want to be able to install it now, and Scavenge it onto the Dino later.

@Sunkain: Good question about the Scavenge combos, they are kind of tribal knowledge; not everyone knows about them but you pick up on them eventually.

The combos center around the card being divided into two separate mechanics.

First, you must trash an installed program as part of the cost to play Scavenge. That means this program immediately goes to the Heap.

Second, you may install any program from the Grip or the Heap, reducing its cost by the cost of the trashed program.

This means you can do things like play Scavenge, sacrificing an installed Yog.0 as part of the cost, and then targeting the same Yog.0, now in your Heap, as the new program to install (reducing its cost by exactly enough to put it at 0).

The obvious use of this would be to play the Yog as soon as you get it, then when you install a Dinosaurus you can play Scavenge with your next click to re-install the Yog on the console.

Femme Fatale's ability is triggered upon its install, so you can pick a new target if you use Scavenge to reinstall it.

Test Run lets you install a program, and it stays installed until the end of the turn. This means as long as you have a spare click, you can play a Scavenge to reinstall the program. This interaction is a little trickier, but basically the Test Run loses its target, allowing the program to stay in play after the turn ends. You've just installed a program from your Stack or Heap for only 3.

I hope that all makes sense. If you have any other questions don't hesitate to ask.
