My take on x3r0h0urs media blitz. Possible changes: Ice Wall vs Paper Wall - sometimes the 1 cred to rez matters. TGTBT vs Profiteering - I like TGTBT for making them waste clicks and possibly fake a tag&bag deck. Chimera vs ? - Reina hurts.

I used to run archer in the deck, then i remembered that it costs an agenda...and this deck can't really afford to go down in points, even with breaking news. Honestly I'd rather just have eli/hudson + roto sooner. I just posted an updated one after a few minutes of thought on the new cards.

I think if you're going to run profiteering, you should run biotic labor, since you're pretty much blanking your ice at that point, which is why I like gila.

I find powershutdown interesting, but I'd be super scared to mill one of my agendas that I need to get right away. I know jackson mitigates this to a point, but you have to have a jackson survive in play, and take the time to play PS...I feel like it distracts a little from the rush down. I'd be interested to see how it works though.

Hmmm good point about the archer.. I will think about it. PS works surprisingly well. I often use it to kill the first breaker they put into play and throw them back in tempo. And since a lot of runners use the cheap anarch breaker suite I don't have to trash more than 2-3 cards... which is still risky, yeah. I'll think about it too :-) Hudson is interesting. But is this RnD-only protection really worth 3 card slots?

I'm also not too fond of Bioroid ice in this deck. Do you really want to allow them to click trough e.g. an Eli?

If they're clicking through rather than installing breakers, searching for breakers, or installing breakers...then okay. If you have hudson over Eli, it gets even more funny. Or you can put another ETR ice early on R&D then an eli up top to tax them. It's about ice placement mostly.

Hmm ill give it a try then. What do you think about TGTBT? Imo its a nice idea but I don't really want to give up on the Profiteerings/Gilas. And a splash of 1 TGTBT ain't worth it in the end, so ill probably cut it.

TGTBT isn't good in any deck without tag punishment, namely midseasons. I would 100% run gila hands over any other 1 pointer except breaking news.
