Edward "No Hand" Kim

I'm not too sure how well this will work out, honestly, but I'm just tickled pink by the deck's theme and title; y'know, because Edward has no hand, and you're trying to make sure that the Corp has no hand as well... no...? OK.

The key to HQ destruction is, of course, Kim's own ability, where you get to knock out operations from their HQ. Imps help you do that multiple times per turn if absolutely necessary, and also help you deal with horrible stuff like SanSan and Crisium Grid. Wonton Destruction (sic) and a single copy of Hemorrhage basically repeats the same theme. I would include more Hemorrhage, and may eventually replace the Wontons with Hemorrhages instead. I don't know.

The Account Siphons, supported by Same Old Thing and Eater, form a main sub-theme of the deck. Another sub-theme is ice destruction, which is supported by the cutlery events + Eater and, of course, the good old standby of Datasucker + Parasite. Forged Activation Orders helps out in that regard too. You'll probably want to focus on getting their ice off HQ, but once they start glaciering up that server, switch to R&D instead.

I chose Grimoire instead of Vigil because the deck sorely needed the extra +2 MU to support a full breaker suite + some support viruses. Also, it doesn't hurt to have your Parasites and Imps powered up from the word go, so that's nice.
