Cloudy "Geist" Lord

The Cloudy Lord has all your needs and support!

Want to break into servers for free? Want to get ridiculous drawing power? Want to make tons of money?

Don't look further and play this deck!

The Cloudy ICEbreakers ~ This deck can run with only 1/2 credits a turn. Installing Shiv for free, Spike for 1 and Crowbar for 1. Add a Faerie on top and you get a full set of breakers with all strength 4. Add in a Clone Chip and you won't have to worry about scoring servers with 2 layers deep. Ofc, the real world is not always ideal, that's why in Cloudy world we use the support of Faerie, Corroder and 2 loyal central breakers Alias and Breach. And don't forget about ZU.13 Key Master, it is the only Cloudy breaker that is worth using. With the complete set, early servers can piss their pants.

The Whole Strategy evolves around running smartly and applying pressure to keep the corp poor. Use Muertos Gang Member to let the Corp waste his money for rezzing his precious Ice. Even a 3/4 rez cost ICE is worth using Muerto. This card feels underrated but it is essential against Blue Sun OAI + Curtainwall combo or a lonely Tollbooth that the Corp thinks they are so smart in rezzing in their first turn. Use Account Siphon to make that credit difference and then Emergency Shutdown one of their beloved ICE. Well the combo is limitless so test them out! Save your The Maker's Eye, Legwork and Inside Job for those special occasions when you want to crash at their birthday parties. Same Old Thing those cards to add some special effects and light fireworks. Remember you get to draw a card for using it!

The Economy is efficient and simple. 1 Forger or Borrowed Satellite + a few Underworld Contact would bring in all the credits that you need. Add a Kati Jones on top and you will have more money than the Corp for the rest of your life. Fall Guy is always very important, use it to draw a card with those 2 extra credits. Does it not feel like you are playing Green Level Clearance with 0 cost? Also use that rare Career Fair for installing a single resource for free, it makes a huge difference in tempo when you can save 3 credits from installing Borrowed Satellite or even Kati early game. I would always try and mulligan for Sure Gamble for the best start. And who can forget the VIP Stimhack, use it in those dire situations and win the game!

The Synergy ~ There are potentially 20 trash cards that you can use to draw extra cards. That's nearly HALF OF THE DECK! Well, normally you wouldn't need to use it all. Here are all the cards: Clone Chip, Forger, Fall Guy, Muertos Gang Member, Same Old Thing, Crowbar, Shiv and Spike. Ofc, you don't need to use all the cards but you get my point. YOU DRAW A LOT

Scorch Protection ~ This is the best part, smile if they are running a Scorch Deck. You have satellite protection (Borrowed Satellite increases your hand size by 1, you can get 7 Max hand size). You have Fall Guy to literally take your scheduled demise (draw 1 card) and your own Cloudy Muertos Gang Member to fight against those Special Ops (Draw 2 cards but only use it when you really need to). Clone Chip can also be used during Scorch recovery. You get my point!

The Cloudy Conclusion I think I named all the cards used in this deck! Well, you should have a go and see if you can have the same fun as I am. I wrote a simple guide below, it's easy to follow!
