New Corp Deck

check out my changes, @Funshade!

For the remote I think it's Data Raven or bust. I went for All-Seeing over Closed, despite the flip ability, since the deck can't really leverage the runner being broke and those DLR builds are out there lately. Wraparound for the aggro Eater/Faust/Chameleon players. Can't afford to get Keyholed with 6 influence spent on Snare!

Went for Explode-a-paloozas over Beales since they go more with the light central ICE plan and Snares are expensive to trigger. Plus, you can Casting Call-advance an Explode-a without an ICE whereas they'll just steal the Beale and clear the tags if you haven't been able to find a remote ICE yet. I would like to fit the Psychographics, even without Beales, but with two Scorch, it's pretty much all in on that. Cheers!

went back to 1x Psychographics but only 1 Beale. Also swapped in 15 Minutes for the 3rd TGTBT. Trying that out. Fun!

If they take all the tags from News Team and no negative points it's pretty hard to win.

@darwindeezI actually ended up droping the Snares for other cards If I focused harder on money then i could put them back in but most of the time it would set me back further then the opponent,

I like the 15 minutes, but I'm keeping the 3x Beal for one reason and one reason only, Astroscript, if the runner goes full tag me, I need it to be Beal over Exploda so I have a CHANCE to score out.

Do you find you end up putting gutenburgs on non RND? I've liked turnpike for the -1 credit ontop of it as super painful to face check (many games someone has lost because it was a turnpike and not a gutenburg)

I haven't loved the Turnpikes, I'm off those. I went to TWIY* for a moment, for the comfy turn 1 Blue Levels and the ability to hold more options since the deck is so reactive, and to squirrel away my one Beale if needed. That build was all in on Psychographics at first, so no Snares, and then I found I had enough inf for 1 Scorch bringing back the original Scorch-Archived-Scorch plan. The tags were just too easy for Noise to clear in TWIY* and Pacer kept Utopia Sharding my HQ so I took it back to SYNC. Then I found myself with even more free influence so I decided to spend it on Foods in order to free up a few more precious deck slots. So now I'm on 3 Astro 3 Food 2 QPM and 15 Minutes.

Mostly I felt like overdrawing with Jackson in SYNC (and pitching News Teams) was slightly suboptimal. Anonymous Tip and Blue Levels feel better. I like 9 econ cards over just 6. The earlier we can pressure them to take tags, the better, but we do need to have the punishment in hand too. So 4 draw cards plus the 3 inherent Jacksons helps find the ICE and the Casting Call we need to get going.

To answer your question, yeah I will put Gutenberg if I'm holding QPM or something. More likely the 2nd Raven goes on HQ though. I'm on 3 Gutenberg right now mostly so I can find one early. To be honest, I don't always use the extras unless I need to replace the one on R&D for some reason. With only 10 ICE it can be hard to find enough for centrals on turn 1, especially when the 1st Data Raven goes on the remote. That 11th ICE feels great to have. But yeah, Turnpike didn't seem painful enough to anyone yet. Resistor seems like more of hassle.

We'll see how this build goes. I've got 2 Psychos now and an Archived now so in theory that's enough to score out if someone goes tag me and locks the remote from turn 1.

And with Film Critic hosing so much of the deck, I've made room for one Snatch and Grab. I like playing it for Kati Jones anyway. The TGTBTs felt underpowered so I've cut them. A Traffic Accident is probably wise. Certainly 1 Beale is reasonable. Food has more on-steal value I think than Explode-a so I'm trying that.
