HB Combo Instant Kill (still in test but won sometimes)

fifty-seven 1

Hello Everyone! ^^ This is the deck that I've been working on for about 1 month, it's a combo deck killing by flatline. It's not perfect but I am proud of it.

The combo is simple: you wait for the runner to make a successful run then you play POWER SHUTDOWN (on 1st click) to trash all your deck, you use JACKSON (precedently installed) to shuffle the SEA and the 2 SCORCHED EARTH in R&D and you play ACCELERATED DIAGNOSTICS (on 2nd click).

You'll do 8 (only 4 might not be enough) meat damages in one turn but you'll need:

-a successful run done (easy)

-Jacson installed (the hardest part)

-the Power Shutdown and Accelerated Diagnostics in hand (Jackson helping)

-at least 2 of the combo cards in R&D or Archives. If 1 Scorhed Earth is in your hand play it on 3rd click and if it's SEA do it on 2nd click (with Accelerated Diagnostics on 3rd) you can use rework or discard it by drawing a lot to be sure to not have 2 of them

-at least 10 credits plus what it take to win the trace(3)

It's not easy done but I won some parties with this deck and it's always a pleasure to see the oponents'head when he understand his defeat.

Feel free to give your comments, I'm not against advises =D

I see a couple of problems here:

  • Half your ICE is broken for free by Yog.0, this on top of an already low ICE count almost certainly will spell trouble for you.

  • If the runner installs but a single Plascrete or Decoy you can basically scratch any hope of flatlining the runner. Now they -might- not since they're up against HB, but if they see a combo piece they surely will, and then what do you do?

Finally, why this Identity? If you want to go for a Scorched Earth flatline Weyland surely does it much better. You don't even use all of the available influence (the -only- thing this identity has going for it compared to EtF).

You are right my glasses are weak on purpose because I need the runner to make a successful run and for the influence I just saw that I forgot some cards (my deck is 49) ^^ but for the ID it's the projects that made me chose it because having more click is useful for the combo as much as retrieving cards from archives and also I wanted to use this ID since it sorted

But y'oure right, you can use this combo in both Weyland and NBN but I'm a HB fan so I made it for this one

I'm new on this site so I don't know how to edit the deck
