I'm liking a lot of the Spark Agency decks I've been seeing, but I wanted to build something a little different. SA screams glacier to me, so I built this as a "good stuff" deck designed to play pretty traditionally. It's got a lot of ANR's good cards with a few notable exceptions:

Jackson Howard: I had to give my friend's copies back. That said, I don't think this deck will drown without him.

Caprice and/or Ash: There's enough ETR here, and I had some other ideas about influence.

Project Beale: I should probably have at least one copy, or even replace some combination of NAPDs/AstroScripts to get three in, but then I would want to lean more heavily on Utopia Fragment and would need Fast Track.

So what about the includes? I've got some ICE choices I feel are pretty solid, as well as some possibly strange operation selections.

Eli 1.0 and Spiderweb: Taxing on their own, but with Midway Station Grid and TL;DR they are just a bear to deal with.

Lotus Field: I'm not solid on this include, but I had a free influence point and against runners packing strength reduction it's a life-saver. I don't like that it's the same strength as Eli but hey, what can you do?

Assassin and Archangel: D&D does big ICE right. I'm excited about these guys.

Ad Blitz: I really think this card is going to be absurd in horizontal corps. There's already a great selection of income advertisements, and it helps boost the impact of the hefty six influence SA somewhat needs to spend on Adonis.

Media Blitz: I think in conjunction with Utopia Fragment this is a pretty fantastic alternative to Caprice and Ash, plus this busts up the runner's currents, so I threw in one to try it out. Red Herrings is there to hold me over until the combo comes online, either through scoring or letting the runner steal it.

The All-Seeing I and Closed Accounts: I will probably get rid of one of these, but I like the ability to punish tag-me runners, and Turnpike might land a tag or two.

So yeah, no idea if this is good, but it's Wednesday and I'm bored. Comments welcomed and encouraged.

I'm having trouble seeing anything other than Launch Campaign as a target for Ad Blitz. Adonis Campaign would make you go broke.

Have you thought about RSVP or Special Offer?

I'm loving the Media Blitz - Utopia Fragment jank

@GrantZilla1979: Both the Launch and PAD Campaigns are good targets for Ad Blitz, and Adonis Campaign is also fine as long as you are putting it in your scoring server. I'm not sure it's the best use of credits but that's why I've only got the one copy. Keep in mind the credit swing from Spark's ability increases the value of the play.

RSVP is nice but I don't expect it will fire when I want it to, plus it's Atman bait. It's probably worth including a singleton. Special Offer is alright but I'm not sure I'd have the time to play more delayed econ when I've already got so many assets to rez, plus I pretty much have to play it on a new server to get any worth out of it. It's worth looking into as something to slap in front of Adonis or Launch though.

Media Blitz + Utopia Fragment makes me giggle like a little girl; I fell in love with UF while playing a public agenda BABW deck and it really opened my eyes about this card.
