Jinteki - Bad Publicity

SCPX 1

I was trying to fix my GRNDL deck for the new meta, when I had the thought of trying out a non-Weyland deck for the bad publicity. After all, other corporations have options for bad publicity, and with new decks taking advantage of the bad pub, it wouldn't hurt to have a better control for it. When I looked at what corps would work best for the concept besides Weyland, I came upon this build.

The idea is to use Profiteering, Fenris, and Shinobi to generate bad publicity, but to use Clone Retirement and Elizabeth Mills + Restoring Face to get rid of it, alongside the traditional Veterans Program. Surprisingly, this works rather well, as you can quickly bait the runner into deadly ICE by surprise, using cards like Sundew, Chairman Hiro, or even just performing a Celebrity Gift on a hand full of The Future Perfect. A Chum in front of a Fenris does a great job to give the runner a small scare, or even a bit of brain damage, while Inazuma + Shinobi threatens to kill them.
