Marine Botany (unrefined)

Pinkwarrior 2342

Had alot of fun with this deck a few wins and a few close lose's enough to know theirs the bones of something good here. Though that could be partially due to the fact that anything not part of the main Idea has been the skeleton of my Shaper decks as of late.

Study Guide is the main breaker of the deck get it to about 6 str and then it shouldn't need pumping any more really. Cyber-Cypher is in the deck for if you need to get in early and havn't the funds/tools to get study guide up.

Multithreader is the main econ of the deck allowing you to pump Study Guide each turn for free, use Self-modifying Code,Surfer or even Misdirection for free tag removal.

Egret unlocks the decks plan usually having to be put down instantly with SMC/Clone chip, doing so allows you to then surf the ICE to the other end and break with study guide. It also allows you to get round those pesky AI only ICE without actually needing an AI throwing some spanners into the works of a few decks.

Clone Chip had to be the restricted card here for instant bin programs it's also really nice to have with clot and the Sacrificial Construct which have ruined a few FA decks on their own.

Trope since i can't have Levy AR Lab Access the deck probably would run out of steam without it and has done on one occasion even with it.

Inti was mainly just an after thought for Wraparound but i soon learnt that it was a need for Tithonium which i personally don't feel is a good card so i never even thought of hitting it.

Rebirth was mainly added to change to Rielle "Kit" Peddler: Transhuman but tbh the main idea of the deck doesn't need her or in honestly use her much when you do find rebirth. I feel adding an Escher could help the deck alot with that or you could probably cut it altogether since theirs alot of Codegates around anyway you don't even need the Egret all the time.

Which brings me on nicely on to things that could change like Indexing it came over with the Shaper Skeleton and it generally doesn't work well here having to get in 2x's in one turn can be work when your using Egret's not that it's a rarity just takes awhile and The Maker's Eye would probably fit better here.I feel Na'Not'K could replace Cyber-Cypher give the deck a full rig if it needs it and not really make much of a difference to the getting in if needed part of CC's point. I feel id like to find away to get Cyberdelia into the deck also as breaking ICE become effortless especially if i can get the MU to have a few Multithreader's up. Doing so could slow the build down somewhat due to econ so getting some Modded's could help their.
