Hey guys, I wrote this up once, but I think my login timed out, and it all got dumped. I'll probably go back into specifics some day, but the core of the theme is: I like shell game. I'm inspired by Blacktree and Cambridge decks, and I'm relatively new to the game so I figured I'd throw my go at this iconic deck up.
Agendas seem pretty standard for this type of deck- I don't have any of the newer agendas, as my bench is a little shallow at the moment. Fetal AI for the net damage, House of Knives and Philotic Entanglement to try and score for more aggression, and The Future Perfect to pad AP, and try and protect the AP you give up.
Traps include Snare! (Classic), Psychic Field (Psi Game is fun), Shi.Kyū (to slow 'em down), and Project Junebug which I'll use with Mushin No Shin. (The prevalence of Junebug will also let Mushin potentially fast advance Knives or Philo).
Neural EMP and Scorched Earth are potential killing blows, though my only tag card is Cerebral Cast, so Scorch is potentially a long shot.
Econ was tough in the early version of this deck. Adonis and PAD have to stick around to be useful, and with unprotected servers, that's tough. So I go with Beanstalk Royalties, and Hedge Fund with the future inclusion of Pop-up Window in front of R&D for more consistent scratch.
Ice is limited- It's only really going to go in front of central servers, but are mostly meant to be diversified, and focused around End Run and Net Damage- For instance, Chum in front of Komainu. Inazuma in front of Pop-up Window.
Obviously, the goal is to make running on remotes dangerous, if not impossible. Keeping Future Perfect in deck is best. Hope to keep their cards and resources down until they slip up, or you can take them out with direct damage (Philo and Neural, or Tag, and Scorch). Anyway. It's a start.

The deck looks fun! And scary! I have a few thoughts:
Looking at the cards you used, I'm guessing you might not have access to all the cards in the game? What are you working with? |

Re; Pop-up Window x Inazuma- Yeah, there was a period of time where the Inazuma were actually Sensei. Inazuma into Komainu or Neural Katana would probably be better. Though with Martial Law on the horizon and Mausolus inching closer, I may have to try and find some influence for that. Extra creds and clicks go to beefing that up. Also, you got me. I'm pretty limited in card pool at the moment. In our playgroup, we have all of the deluxes, but I'm trying to just pull from my collection, which at this point is a core, a stripped core (so I have all the 2 and 3 card includes in full playsets, but still only one of the "rare" cards), and Honor and Profit. (Though in an unrealted note, I'm trading the profit half to a friend for the Chaos half of Order and Chaos.) I have one datapack, Trace Amounts, that I mostly got for e3s and the Fetals. |

15 influence spent. -4 from one Scorch. -2 from Pop-up. 9 influence spent. +6 Add two Mausolus, +0 Add some Consulting Visits? |
Looks like this deck would work better in Nisei Division: The Next Generation.
