Bizarre RepliKate

Hey, neat! Bazaar + Replicator lets you install all copies of HW from your deck when you install the first one: relevant ruling

This deck is probably still too slow to set up to be competitive, but it's reasonably strong once it's up and running.

The basic gameplan is to install a shitload of hardware while you have at least one (and preferably more) Technical Writer's installed. Those will recoup your HW investment and then some.

You win by using Spy Camera to check R&D relentlessly. Even if they draw multiple times on their turn, you can tell when agendas get into HQ and spot scoring chances from a mile away.

Hyperdrivers go on NetChips to accelerate the setup. Spy Camera's and draw events accelerate the setup. Tyson Observatory is there to get your first Replicator out if you don't see it early.

Late game econ is fueled by Aesop's Pawnshop and using Levy AR Lab Access to reload tech writers and recycle econ events.

I think it's still too slow to be competitive, but it's a lot of fun. It might be better out of Chaos Theory: Wünderkind to cut down on the combo setup, or better out of Hayley Kaplan: Universal Scholar to save some clicks when you're installing resources + allowing you to save a click on your jumbo install. I'm using Kate right now because her discount is handy for getting you through the initial setup without clicking for credits (free hyperdrivers, discounted netchips/replicators).
