Paywall

Explanation of essentially everything below!

Paywall is my personal variation of the "Red Coats" deck that intends to tax the runner with big ice and protect agendas with Ash.

Eli + quandary + roto and even Viktor are your "cheap ice" ETR options for earlier rushing of agendas.

Heimdalls + Tollbooth + Wotan + Ichis and Viktor will tax the runner on credits and make for expensive additions to your super server.

Ash is straightforward, protects agendas after forcing expensive runs. Also good on R&D occasionally to protect against deep digs.

GRNDL is a real winner here. Either bait expensive runs or make big credits to afford your huge ice. I've managed to score 6x advanced GRNDLs but I wouldn't honestly recommend it. At most I might install and advance 1-2 times to bait the runner. You don't want to overadvance and lose it. Sure, you bait an expensive run but you're also overextending. 1-2 for the bait and if it fails, then next turn advance 2 times and trash for credit returns.

Adonis + PAD net you money but essentially function as distractions. They make the runner spend to trash (outside of that annoying Whizzard character).

Possible swaps based on preference: -3x PAD for +3 Eve campaign. -1x Restructure +1 GRNDL Refinery or +1 Subliminal Messaging -3x Accelerated Beta Test +3x NAPD Contract (NAPD Contract IS awesome in this deck)

It's all about timing. You DO run the risk of losing big agendas in HQ and R&D so be mindful of that. I've had issues where I forget to protect those areas a little harder while I build my super server. Don't forget to protect archives a bit against Criminals and Noise.
