Gabe Basic (Yeeeaaahhh... Gabe's Basic)

Just a simple, no-frills event-based Gabe deck making use of the criminal central-breakers. As always, interested in thoughts and suggestions. Thanks!

Hm... why do you pack two breaker suites? Usually, it's either the centrals plus an AI-breaker for remote-terror or just go with the anarch-suite and add one or two datasuckers.

I fear, if you try both, you'll just end up with a lot of dead draws or - even worse - you have to install both suites for an insane amount of creds/clicks combined with MU-problems because of the Sneakdoor.

btw. drawing is gonna be a bitch with this deck. ;)

Hmm... perhaps I beef up the draw for the centrals, take out the anarch-suite and drop in 3x Darwin. Thanks for the help - this is exactly the sort of stuff I'm looking for.

How do you mean about the draw problems?

Darwin might fit very well here but you still come short of one MU (3 central breaker, sneakdoor and darwin). You can navigate around that by trashing a breaker you have in hand too for the sneakdoor and replace it after the corp iced up archives but that's kinda risky. If you take damage and loose the breaker in hand, you'll have no way to get it back from the heap.

Draw: if your starting hand isn't satisfying and your mulligan doesn't improve, you'll have to draw for the breakers resp. the sneakdoor because there's no tutoring here. That can be a pain in the a$$ - at least if you've already installed the Desperado. I guess Logos can help with that but then I'd pack 3 of them and forget the Desperado. Downside of this: fast advance is too fast for you and when your suite is out, you'll need lotsa luck to still win the game.

My advice would be: forget to Logos, take 3 Desperados and replace the Early Bird with Special Order. Your rig will stand much faster.

Interesting. Currently I have it with 3x Logos for my tutoring, and I personally love with Early Bird for quick face-checking, but I might have to use your suggestions and see if I don't like it more.
