Burn It Down

Was playing this today at casuals. Had a lot of fun with it, though it needs some work.

Basic idea is to get your rig "set up" in like a turn or two. Once you do that throw down a Medium or Nerve Agent, get some multi access, and then Demo Run.

Getting the rig to a useable place just means getting your Mimic out and then having Black Orchestra and Paperclip in the bin with some money to go grab them if need be. MaxX is great at this on her own, and inject just makes it better.

Most of the economy is event based so going tag-me shouldn't be the worst if need be. If you're worried about being killed then Demo their hand. I haven't actually played against kill yet, so this might not be reliable enough.

Exclusive Party is pretty fun here. It pairs well with MaxX. What I've found so far is you should keep one in your hand until you've got minimum 2 in the bin. Feel free to ditch extras in your hand. And using Same Old Thing to get 5 credits and a card works pretty okay.

Things I want to try in the future: -Obviously Mimic isn't the best without support. Most of the time you can just run through damage, but program trashing can be an issue. So once the trashcan killer comes out that'll most likely be switched in. -Black Orchestra can be pretty painful to use. Breaks turing for 6, tollbooth for 9, dna tracker for 9, so maybe it would be worth it to put some ice destruction in. Spooned jumps to mind, but obviously it can only take out code gates. Parasite is another option. Brings ice down to 4 which is the magic number and eventually kills the ice if left unchecked. It also helps with Mimic. -There's 3 influence left to spend. Maybe upgrade sentry breaker. Beth Kilrain-Chang?

Take it out? - Not sure 3 Demolition Run is necessary. I kept seeing all of them way to early. Down to 2 is probably okay. -2 Levy AR Lab Access also might be too much. -3 of each breaker is a lot but it really gets the deck going early. But down to 2 wouldn't be the worst idea.

Couple questions. Does exclusive party seem worth it? Would an account siphon MaxX be better? Also is double Levy needed? I agree one isn't the worst with MaxX however i feel like two is too many. Just because you really shouldn't need it with her. She has a lot of skill being a fast deck. Great early game that is. Just curious. Take a look at some of my decklist if you want. I play a ton of MaxX
