We are in control [startup]

Control deck, without Endurance.

Game plan : Make impactful run on Centrals.

Mulligan plan : You'll want to start with either Prepaid VoicePAD or Zenit Chip JZ-2MJ in hand.

We have EVERY bypass tools available here. But there is a rhythm to this deck. You'll want to make one run per turn, with a few turns where you'll draw or click for credits.

Zenit Chip JZ-2MJ is very good and synergize well with Tsakhia "Bankhar" Gantulga. Having it early makes the game easier.

Eru Ayase-Pessoa is underused for sure. At the end game, with Mercury: Chrome Libertador, you get to see 3 cards in R&D! It really help to close the game. So, you should install it before making a run with Tsakhia "Bankhar" Gantulga.

Of note, this deck is also legal in standard. But in standard, players expect Diversion of Funds from criminals and thus ice up HQ much more (usually double ice by turn 2-3). In startup, the absence of Diversion of Funds makes the players less wary of HQ pressures.

Here are some replacement cards :

• Concerto is fun and allows you to make run to trash an asset easily, while replacing itself. But this could switched for Tread Lightly also.
• I've preferred Career Fair instead of Sure Gamble, because it is easier to play, but I could understand using the other card.

This is fun and quite a different take on the criminal faction. The deck felt more like a shaper deck, almost. Mercury: Chrome Libertador really makes a difference for this deck. Tell me what you would change to make the archetype better?!
