Next Shutdown

Looks fun. I've done something like this before, and agree program trashing has potential if you go all-in with it. :)

Paper Wall is anti-synergy with all the program trashing though, since it will often get trashed as soon as they have the right breaker out.

Also, Power Shutdown is dangerous without Jackson to recover from it though - what if you changed a Shutdown and another card for two Jacksons?

Lastly, you have 3 Archers with no single-point agendas ... maybe switch one or two for Grims? They're a pretty solid surprise too, and bad pub doesn't matter if they don't have the right breakers out.

I love the concept with this deck. Looks really solid. I love the Archived Memory include, both for recurring Power Shutdowns and saving agendas.

I might consider taking out the Archers (because trashing a 2-point agenda is huge) and putting in 3 Jackson Howards to give you free Accelerated Beta Test runs and Power Shutdowns. Then swapping out Paper Walls for Ice Walls, which will stick around until you can kill off their barrier breakers.

Personal preference, I'm not a fan of Chimera (unless it's in Jinteki). It's good for scoring an early 3-cost agenda, but not much else. It's really expensive to maintain and this deck might face some issues drawing econ. I would swap out these for another Ichi or some Guards (when Honor and Profit comes out).

Blast you, ber! for saying all the things seconds before I did.

Thanks for the suggestions!

My reasoning behind paper walls and quandary is the following: they are very useful against in the early game so, potentially, they slow down aggressive decks. In the late game I rez them only if the corresponding kind of breaker is gone. In this way I get cheap and very effective ICE throughout all the game, though I see your point with paper wall.

Chimera forces the runner to get always all the breakers out, so I can break them. However, true, is credit-wise demanding.

Jackson is something I should be using, I agree. Perhaps the easiest way is to swap 2 of them for an archer and something else.

Thanks again, I'll see what I come up with.
