Perfected rejection v1.0

ODie 725

Adapted (slightly) from Striving for Perfection v2 (Jinteki Q1 2014 Earnings Cast). This build helped me to 1st place in a local 20+ players league that I ran, alongside By Hook or by crook .

Including 3x Enhanced Login Protocols, although two might suffice, the current seems to be a red rag to the Runner to come and steal a lucky Agenda from me to trash it, thus the high redundancy.

I also swapped 1x Jackson Howard for 1x Himitsu-Bako. Partly couldn't find the third JH ;-) , partly meta call against Knight; costs them 2 to install, click to host, 2 to break and then you can bounce the Himitsu-Bako to trash the Knight and reinstall next turn. Seems strong...

Other than that it runs pretty much like most RP "Fun Police" (IIRC) builds. Build up your central servers, recurring back trashed economy assets and gradually roll over the top of your opponent. Note that the Chimera is excellent against Nasir behind Inazuma - managed to keep one Runner out pretty much the whole game with that server.

I agree with many of the pundits that this is probably the strongest Corp deck in the environment right now.

Cheers for that @SlySquid, those kudos mean a lot - both on the deck name & the build.

How are you planning to tag the runner for Closed Accounts?

@semaphores, it's there just for the TagMe players (post Siphon, say) and can shut down the game from there.

Glad to see someone else having a lot of success with this deck! I'm tempted to dump the Encryption Protocols and go all-in on ELPs too, as much as I love the Cerebral Static build. Both ELP and Ash are just brutal. Are you still landing Closed Accounts often? I removed it from mine because I haven't played against many tag-me runners lately.

@ekayohlee, I'm not sure, but going to a Store tournament tonight, so I'll be able to report better after that. Most people seem not to expect it, so it comes as a nasty shock, and if they do see it coming then spending three clicks to Siphon me for only six credits is moderately palatable, especially if I still have economy coming in next turn.

I thoroughly recommend going to Enhanced Login Protocol, it has definitely improved this build. Whether you go all in, or only two (so that you're only looking for one point of influence to free up) is probably environmental - how many Runner currents are you seeing in your local meta, and how much you believe in the Netrunner gods hating your own current.

Cerebral Static is interesting to me but such a dud card vs Andromeda, and feels weak vs most Shapers (except Nasir) that I've not run it yet. Does it do good stuff in your RP? Link?

This was the most recent published version. I've been messing with a lot of the slots in recent months, though, trying out Architect, Reversed Accounts, and Daily Business Show.

I invested in Cerebral Static primarily because I was getting wrecked by Noise for a while, but I don't see much of him anymore. It's come in handy against all Anarchs, Leela, Nasir, Gabe, and pretty much every non-Andy/Professor ID I've faced against. I wrote a report about one of the two tournaments I won with it here. It's definitely a meta call.
