blackjazz 124

Archetype: Jinteki Cambridge (Kill PE)

My choices:

  • -2xEli/+2Sealed Vault - Without Vault - Account Siphoon and Vamp are the biggest vulnerability. I dont mind runner to be rich as long as I have some money. This deck runs smoothly when you're constantly at 10 credits = You can play PSI game, you can fire Snare and you can trigger overwriter in one turn.

  • +2xKomainu/-1xYagura-1xShiKyu - Komainu + House of Knives is a legitimate win condition against careless runner who likes to facecheck. I tend to play without rezzing ices (if the runner has already running money engine). I do rez them if they run aggresively without setting up any economy. Having Komainu in deck creates another layer of mind games - runners tend to be afraid of unrezzed ices. Finally in some situations Komainu is a fine taxing ice. About Yaguras: 2xYaguras in deck is enough I think. ShiKyu does not have any purpose in the deck for me. -1 Agenda point is a marginal effect.

  • -2xZaibatsu/+2xShock - This is the change I am not so sure about. I play in the meta without many expose so I benefit more from shocks as trap shells or as a passive archive protection (semi-countering Keyhole).

For those who don't know Blackjazz is possibly the strongest Personal Evolution player in Poland. I died quite a few times against various versions of this deck, each time in a completely new and often surprising way. WIll definitely try playing this.
