Look out!

So this is a trace heavy yellow glacier deck.

It uses low rez cost/high str ICE with generally good trace strengths. The combination of Sub Boost with Macrophage or Data Ward is juicy. IP Block is great in the meta atm.

Aryabhata Tech is game winning econ when it fires, but good runners won't let that asset stick around for very long if they can kill it. Net Quarantine is actually decent econ too, since it has two functional triggers. Restructure and the basic NBN Operations fill in the gaps.

I don't want to pretend like this is some All-Star deck... with everyone splashing Temujin and Aaron these days it is harder to work sometimes, often needing to play things cautiously. I'm assuming that that whole bit will cool down later though, when those two cards likely hit the MWL... This deck is the product of a bunch of different brews along the same variant, trying out toys like Surveillance Sweep or going up to 18 ICE. It's still a Work In Progress - but this variant has had a decent winrate.

I love the idea behind the deck, it looks like everything I feel like NBN should have been from the start.

As for Aaron, perhaps MCA Informant could help? Deckslots look tight, but still, if you could stand to drop a BRE, throwing that on a loaded Aaron is delicious.

MCA Informant is a great idea for this deck for that exact situation. Good call!

I feel like it might be the type of card to try out as a 2-of to experiment with at first and then later drop down to a 1-of.

MCA Informant is kind of the only card from Station One that I like.

From the UFAQ it looks like Corporate Troubleshooter is a splash that should be included to maximize the power level, especially at only one influence. It feels like a mistake by FFG that might get cleaned up later: ancur.wikia.com .... but as it stands MCA on a CT in a super server comboed into something like The All-Seeing I Closed Accounts Exchange of Information feels like sad times for the Runner.
