Saraswati Mnemonics: My first deck after a 6 year break!

It's been a long time but I'm jumping back into the game and having a blast deckbuilding with new (to me) cards. I would really appreciate any advice or tips for taking advantage of this identity. Thanks!

Welcome back!

Let's put the obvious first : every decks have 3x of Rashida Jaheem, Spin Doctor and Hedge Fund, unless you have a specific game plan.

Otherwise, could you tell us what you would like to do with this deck? It feels like you want to fork the runner with Mitosis, using traps and agendas. If that is the case, you might want to check Cerebral Overwriter and Clearinghouse. Also, Reaper Function would probably help you, along with Bladderwort. Finally, there is also Anemone and Obokata Protocol.

I suggest that you look at Regenesis of you want to score Jumon.

Feel free to ask anything. Cheers!

Thanks for the feedback!

I went back and forth on several damage cards. Cerebreal Overwriter and Clearinghouse look great but the influence cost is prohibitive unless I significantly alter the ice lineup. I'll try them eventually.

Hey Hey! I'm a big fan of saraswati - so always tend to check out when a swati deck is posted.

fyi - saraswatis ID only fires on cards installed in the root of a server (so you cant use it to instal ice with a counter) maybe that wasn'[t part of your plan - but thought i'd point it out just in case.

Always good to see someone returning to the game!

Now there's a name I've not heard in a long time... Shoutouts from a fellow cardgamedb forumite :D
