Lttlefoot 1285

One of two decks using the Opus-Vamp-Snitch combination, built using one core set plus genesis cycle. Snitch lets you control which ice the corp is allowed to rez before you vamp them with a million credits and finish the game on easy mode since they won't be able to rez any more ice for a while. It's also important in this deck type to destroy economy assets since you don't want the corp having more money than you when you vamp them.

This deck has the benefit of the asset trashing built right into the identity instead of having to use Scrubber. It also gets Stimhack which can be used to pay for Vamp, and Deja Vu to let you do it one more time. Xanadu also plays well into not letting the corp rez ice. But is it better than the Shaper version? See my Radagast deck for comparison.

What is the Opus-Vamp-Snitch combination?

Also you can't Stimhack to pay for Vamp. They are two separate events that make a run - you can't "combine" them.

Oh right, didn't notice that. This deck gets the axe then

The combination is just that opus gives you lots of credits to spend on vamp so you can make the corp too poor to Rez ice, while snitch lets you make runs to stop the corp doing dodgy things without turning all their ice face up before you make them poor.
