Chasing the Story

I'm impatient-- I get itchy sitting still and waiting for the runner to hit a perfectly placed ICE or trap. I'd much rather do some proactive running of my own.

This deck is exploring a new NBN archetype, where the corp actively attacks the runner, without having to do so in response to a runner's actions. It's much easier to flatline a runner with Ronin or Scorched Earth if you can thin out their hand first with Invasion of Privacy or Snoop.

Closed Accounts and City Surveillance work wonders together, and you can throw the runner in a pretty deep hole if they need to spend several turns taking credits and removing tags. The first tag to start the combo can come from Data Raven, Bernice Mai, or Breaking News, all incredibly hard to outmaneuver. Finally, a scored Restructured Datapool all but guarantees on-demand tagging, or you can drain the runner's credits while comfortably spending your recurring creds from NBN: Making News and Primary Transmission Dish.

Good deck. Nice to see something besides Astrotrain for NBN.

Awesome. I think you're on to something regarding Invasion of Privacy with Primary Transmission Dish. Makes it a lot more potent. I think I wouldn't mind seeing an RSVP or two to protect the Primary Transmission Dish after it's been revealed. Also, one or two Psychographics to perhaps capitalize on the runner sinking into the hole with City Surveillance? Otherwise, it doesn't seem to do a lot?
