The Future PSI

romanoSoprano 266

Main ideas behind this deck: - 'self-defending' agendas - cheap but at least lightly taxing ice that also makes me money - RSVP + Caprice/NAPD remote

Using things like Yagura/Bullfrog/Popup/Snowflakes seems to prolong the early game, where the runner is happy to pay this price, and I often don't mind letting him into HQ (betting 0 on PSI and just getting my take).

Marked accounts seem to be ignored in 90% of the games (then again I seem to run into Anarchs very rarely) and end up contributing a lot to my bottom line. Mental Health Clinic might seem random as I only started testing it.

Started off with practically all PSI cards but cut out Cerebral casts as I wasn't runnig any tag-punishment to begin with (added 1-of Closed Accounts only recently) and I'm not impressed with the Psychic Field (which is maybe nice to drop on the table along with GHA and let's say Jackson, Marked Accounts or another trap) but generally doesn't seem to synergize that well with the rest of the deck considering I'm not playing Never Advance.

Shi.Kyu - fell in love with it at first sight and ran 3 copies, but dropped to 2 due to the cost it takes to make them stick & that they don't protect R&D.

Can't say I don't like the money they give, but there is rarely a hand I'd be happy to reveal with Celebrity Gifts, so I'm probably gonna test some alternatives soon.
