Jintekill

Whee!!!

Very similar to a deck I have been running lately. I chose to run 3 punitives over 2 for consistency and no overwriters.

I also do not run nearly as many trashable trap assets. Shock! and Snare! Are fine, but you also have Junebug and Overwriter. I would probably drop one of those two from the list all together.

I like Eli and Fenris in this deck quite a bit. 8 Agendas is also really good for Punitive. But do you have the money to back it up? Melange, Sundew or Subliminal would help quite a bit with this deck, especially since you need more money than the runner and you need money to have the potential to win via advancing, which is very expensive for you with your current agenda build (15 credits!). With only Hedge Fund and Celebrity Gift, it will be difficult to get that much money and still res your ice.

Hokusai is good, not sure I would run 3.

How are you liking Data Mine, Whirlpool and Bullfrog in this deck? I always am less than impressed with bullfrog, but I guess you could use it with RSVP?

Thanks for the comment !

You are right with the assets, I was never able to use both Junebug and Overwriter as much as I thought, I think I'll drop the Junebugs.

I totally agree with your analysis about money, on the five games done in my local store championship, I was not able to kill 3 different runners (with EMP or Punitive) because of a lack of 1 little credit. Furthermore, I think that Tsurugi is not affordable for my deck, i have to think about how replace it. I was not able to use efficiently Fenris during my games, as against Jinteki, there are no run on my servers without a killer.

Hokusai helped me a lot, it is a pain for the runner if I place it on HQ if he intents to Siphon me, or it helps me to hurt him paired with RSVP.

I really love Data Mine, it makes a deadly combo with Chum in front of it, or protecting Archives with 3 Shocks inside !

The unique Bullfrog enables to protect an agenda on a remote if the runner can't afford it, or you are right works well with RSVP in front of it!

RSVP is the star ice of this deck because it can protect Hokusai, Ronin or even a Fetal AI, while enabling to do massive net damages thanks to unbreakable ICEs.

Finally Whirlpool can be used to kill an imprudent runner on the wrong server (or redirect it in the wrong server will bullfrog) or is useful with chum in front of it.
