Jinteki Crux Assault

LynxMegaCorp 1343

You play in two ways: naked install to threaten Shi.kyu / Shock or score HoK / PE. Then you can Mushin no Shin to score TFP / Fetal or threaten 3 brain damage. Try to ice up where necessary (mostly centrals, maybe WoT as scoring server), stay ahead of the Runner. Pay 1 for Shi.Kyu each time. It's fun to let the Runner struggle. BLC is there to fetch Ice and feed CG. Can't wait!

1) No point of playing Neural Katana over 3x Cortex Lock

2) Drive By will be a lot of trouble for this deck

Put Biotic Labor instead of BLC, so you can blow-up if they steal the Shi-Kyus

1) You have a point. When I started the deck, I had Batty on the mind. Once I ran out of slots he didn't make it.

2) Time to bust out the Zaibatsu Loyalty! Amirite? Readies high five No? Ahem.

3) I'm always weary of Biotic, but that's an investment I could get with. What about 2x SanSan? Sure it wouldn't be a one-shot, but its 3 influence each and taxes the runner.

Thanks for the suggestions!

SanSan City Grid has the downside that it costs 6c to rezz. with the Agenda u are going to advance +2c. So that's 8c v.s. 7c on a Biotic.

Of course SanSan Shines if you can push out more than 1 ...

I wonder about the 3x Shock and 3x Shi.Kyu , obv the runner won't be hitting archives to get pinged ... on the other hand it's not like you are paying 4c for a Snare! ... it would be interesting to balance out the Jinteki dmg assets with this ID.

Hope the Data Pack hits September, but looking at the fact that we still haven't received Old Hollywood, more likely it will be October ...

I opted for Shock and Shi because they are cheap. Shock costs 2 credits in order to avoid. Shi.kyu for 1 each time (2 if affordable) is great. It can get trashed, so its less reliable. If you can threaten the flatline, -1 AP is great.

Also, I like to think of SanSan as having a net cost of 1 credit if the runner raw trashes it.

Saw your posted iteration, and I might swap Shi.kyu for Hokusai Grids.
