Big Ice Everywhere - Comments welcome

Dottore2k 8

This Deck is built to put Big Ice very fast in the runners way. The longer the game runs, the mor difficult it becomes for the runner to break through. Tyr Hand makes a good Job here. Jackson Howard is in because you may mill some agendas when resolving accelerated beta test and put them back where they belong. And to draw cards ;) Shipment from Mirrormorph is in to save clicks and to overwhelm the runner. Funniest thing was playing a successful Demonstration after sacing Tyr's Hand to have an unbreakale ETR, which was temporaly put on a Janus by a resolved Project Wotan. It was quite annoying for the runner.

Good stating hand: Hedge Fund - Heimdall - Oversight AI

The ICE Plan was simple: Large Bioroids combined with Hourglass to get his free clicks or money. Howler to recur the ICE.

Any thoughts? Improvments? Something that doesnt work because I didnt read the cards carefully enough?

Those Shipments from Mirrormorphs should really be Interns - to recur Howlers and install ABTed agendas.

How is Hourglass working for you? Do you generally find it worthy of the cost, both in terms of credits and how situational it is?

Interns - good plan. It is possible to recur the Tyr's Hands and whatever you need.

The hourglass is good, but not at the beginning of the game - maybe I should cut them down to two, Including one more Howler.

What do you think of Jackson Howard? I would say 2 copies are enough, because after installing it (usualy you install him in a seperate remote server, not the one you want to score your agendas) it is unprotected and if your opponent has a little knowledge he will finish him off soon. So you get 4 cards for three clicks. With the anonymous tip you get 3 cards for one click. i'm not shure if it can be calculated that easy ...

My personal opinion, but whenever I see a deck with 3x Efficiency and 3x Oversight I always want to put 3x Wotan in. It's just such a rockstar ice to target with those cards since it doesn't get eaten up by E3. I think Archer is probably not so great in this since you don't have the agenda spread to hard rez it, and without the surprise value it will probably end up getting eaten by a faerie. Heimdall, Janus, and Wotan all make better targets for the free rez anyways. I would also consider dropping hourglass and including Eli 1.0. It is an incredibly efficient piece of ice that would have good synergy in this deck.
