Double Combo All The Way

aleph_c 620

An old deck. It may be worth taking another look, now that are new tricks.

I had put together a ridiculous combo designed to mill 3 cards every turn. You can see it be way too slow in this video.

But from that game, I noticed that it wasn't too bad setting up enough of the combo to mill 2 cards. And hey, if it's not too bad setting up one small combo, why not do another? And what if that combo can give me a way to threaten remote servers?

Enter the old school Blackmail combo. Use Hostage (if you need to) to get Aesop's Pawnshop, get out Activist Support, use New Angeles City Hall to avoid the tag, then pawn off that support.

With The Source to force agendas to stay on the table, Infiltration to pick your spots, and Planned Assault and Same Old Thing to get your Blackmails, this deck can do a decent job of making sure the Corp doesn't run away with things.

Meanwhile, out comes Data Leak Reversal with John Masanori to get a tag on click 1 and Crash Space to clear it on click 4. Once it's all set up, the plan is to Blackmail when necessary, and otherwise mill 2 cards.
