[Startup] Z.A.T.O.: ZATO Anemone Through Ob

11 games undefeated on Jinteki.net. Pretty much every card that can kill managed to get a kill.

Use ZATO to trash ICE to trigger painful subroutines and use Ob to summon ICE with rez effects on the current run server to apply more pain (ideally death).

Usually want to save Unsmiling Tsarevna for your ZATO City Grid remote. As long as you have an Anemone in R&D you are do 2 x 2 net damage on encounter if runner encounters.

If you draw Anemone try to use it on centrals or somewhere you can fire it's rez ability at the right time and then make it fodder for Anvil or Extract. If you trash with Anvil encounter it may be possible to Ob the Ping and give the runner a tag on top of the two damage. Ideally you can Spin Doctor them back into R&D - sometimes this is even possible before kicking off a ZATO City Grid combo.

Sometimes it's worth just baiting the runner into some amount of this damage with an agenda, usually Oaktown Renovation and then kill them with tags or Punitive Counterstrike.
