Ethics in Corp Journalism

This is the Whizzard deck I came up with after looking at other Whizzard decks. The strategy is to run remotes, trash all the things, money up, and lay into R&D with Medium. This isn't a super run crazy deck, all of the rig components are important to some degree, from Datasucker tokens, to being able to Parasite the things, to D4v1d -ing past rough ice you couldn't normally handle. So preparing by making money and getting cards is fairly important than super early Gabe or Kate-style running with reckless abandon.

However you want to run a lot more often once you have Datasucker. it's super important to lock down those remotes to make use of Whiz's recurring credits, and then start hammering the centrals when you're nice and rich and ready. Beware of tags and Closed Accounts, the biggest weakness of this deck is it's VERY tight in the click department I find. So it's hard to shake tags to avoid resource trashing and the inevitable Closed Accounts that will wreck you. But then again, with 3 I've Had Worse it's a little more resistant to kill tag decks.

Thoughts on some Card choices:

Liberated Account: Yes, it's expensive. But, there are turns where you can just click it a bunch and get very rich very quickly. It's almost like a runner version of Melange in a way. But it's more flexible than Melange because... you could just click it once. Very good combined with Daily Casts and Kati Jones.

Datasucker: The earlier you get this, the better off you'll be. Helps Parasite kill ICE faster, Helps your breakers get through, helps Yog.0 against bigger Code Gates and most importantly makes Crypsis easier to use.

Clone Chip: Just 2 to recur Datasucker and Parasite and maybe other programs when you need them back.

Net-Ready Eyes: This card helps your breakers so much, and it's less risky to use in this deck because of I've Had Worse.

D4v1d: For that ice that you just can't get past, not as good as Inside Job or other get out of subroutines free tricks, but hey, costs no influence.

I've replaced Faust with Crypsis since my deck makes the kind of money to make it viable.

Infiltration: This deck doesn't face check super well, and you want to run remotes because you're Whiz, so the expose is very helpful.

Earthrise Hotel: I run this over Wyldside for draw because as I said this deck feels very click tight as it is, I don't know how much Wyldside would throw off tempo.

(Update:

Faust removed for 2-ofs Crypsis

Some of the econ cards cut to make room for stuff, threw in 2 Dirty Laundry.

Went to a one-of for Net-Ready Eyes to get the influence needed for Aesop's Pawnshop to help clear up MU issues.)
