This deck came about from a desire to play glacier during a period where Runner's were packing Data Folding, Maxwell James, Mining Accident and Security Nexus. Barring Smoke. This, is a glacier deck to consistently beats late game runner decks. The two big haymakers against late game runners are Bio Vault and Biased Report. Bio Vault shut down big run events, while also making it easier to score safely. Being able to advance it while Adonis Campaign and MCA Austerity Policy is in the remote is great tempo. Biased Reporting make econ denial impossible, unless the Runner is poor themselves [in which case they can't get in]. Both these cards scale in power as the game goes on, so you can never draw them too late. So don't try to mulligan for them.

Tips: [1] Try to get something into Archive turn 1, so your opponent can't click through you ICE for affordably; [2] Don't create a second remote, your ICE will spread thin; [3] Don't panic if the Runner tries to rush you out, they will find themselves with only 3 points and poor.

Trivia: I named the deck name in all lowercase to make it more uniform, in other words monolithic.
