A Child's Mind v4

dethstrobe 1

This deck is about building up as much MU as possible and installing Overmind with a lot of power counters to get through any servers defences.

The very first thing you'll want to do is get your economic engine started. Magnum Opus the heart of this deck's econ engine, but comes with the downside of eating up a lot of MU. So to minimize the amount of MU it uses, install it in a daemon, Djinn.

Djinn serves 2 purposes. The first is to make it so that Magnum Opus doesn't eat up 2 MU, and the other is to tutor for viruses.

If you draw Djinn, that's fantastic, however if you end up needing to tutor for Djinn I highly recommend using Self-modifying Code. And if you haven't found Magnum Opus yet, tutoring for it on turn 1 with Test Run will allow you to click for 6 credits to pay for installing Magnum Opus next turn.

After you got a stable econ engine set up, I'd recommend trying to dig/tutor for The Toolbox and/or Omni-Drive. If possible, use Trade-In on Q-Coherence Chip since this deck will be trashing a lot of programs anyway, Q-Coherence Chip won't really be very helpful for long, but is a nice and cheap sacrifice for Trade-In.

If you are able to get both The Toolbox and Omni-Drive up and install Overmind on to Omni-Drive that should give you about 6 or more power counters on Overmind. Which should be enough to start running in to most servers.

Before making your first run, I'd recommend to use Djinn to tutor for a Datasucker, or if you want to start to apply pressure on HQ, install and imp and begin to trash things in HQ. Or possible start to hit remotes and trash expensive cards like SanSan City Grid. If HQ becomes too hard to run, I'd highly recommend digging/tutoring for R&D Interface and start to apply pressure on R&D.

If you run into problematic ICE, like Toll Booth, Data Raven, etc, use Djinn or Self-modifying Code to bring out a Parasite and if possible use Datasucker tokens to burn that ICE down.

If you are running up against something like Jinteki who is constantly hitting you with net damage, or maybe Weyland with meat damage, Levy AR Lab Access can help replenish your stack.
