Want to have a fast game of Netrunner, here is a deck for you!

Game plan : tag and bag.

Mulligan plan : you will want a maximum of one agenda in hand.

Try to keep 5 on hand at all time, to be able to threaten the rez of Funhouse or to fire Snare!.

MVP of the deck is probably Unsmiling Tsarevna, which for the runner to either get tagged or lose 2 cards, both of which help us.

With Gaslight, you should be able to get either Public Trail or End of the Line in hand fairly quickly.

Fastest game with the deck : End of the Line on turn 2!

If the runner goes "tag me", you will be able to score Freedom of Information easily! At that point, use End of the Line for value to slow down the runner.

Enjoy!

Why 40 cards and not 44? Especially since you have Gaslights and you want max 1 agenda in hand at the beginning?

@Angelnet5000, that is because I intend to find my combo card as fast as possible. Gaslight accelerate this even further, making for games that are usually around 7 minutes in lenght. But you could add any 4 cards that you think would help. Here, you could add two Drago Ivanov, a Backroom Machinations and a Palisade (or Tollbooth), for example.

Cheers!

It seem 3x Rashida is suitable for combo deck. Gives you draw and money at the same time.

@ruby272 quite right, but since this is a Startup deck (I will try to make it more clear in my future decks), Rashida Jaheem is not possible. Cheers!

I have been playing this a bunch and while it is pretty fun, I seem to struggle against careful runners that also stack No Free Lunch So, I made a few changes.

-2 Magnet
+1 Snare! It's just too good of a tool to punish multiaccess.
+2 SanSan City Grid Puts a lot of economic pressure even when unrezzed, and lets me score from hand when the runner is being very cautious.
+1 Backroom Machinations Let's me close the games where I'm let to freely score through SanSan
+2 Drago Ivanov I don't think this did anything for me honesly, maybe better off with econ or cheap ICE instead.

I'm sure this is diminishing the consistency of the deck but the games where I just wait for the runner to make a mistake is greatly reduced which makes it more fun to play overall.

Anyways, good hunting!

@Argelia I love it. One more Snare! is a great idea. I can totally see it with Backroom Machinations and SanSan City Grid. I'll try it also.

I think Drago Ivanov is a good call here, especially since it is available only in startup.

Thanks for sharing!
