So, I’ve been looking at building a Chaos Theory Deck based upon Comet and Draw Events for Android: Netrunner. Since you get multiple Events a turn, you can then add in Run or Money Events to keep the pressure on the corp while you also set up.
Chaos being a 40/15 ID is critical. You want a small deck so you can draw through it multiple times and make every Draw Event count. The other 40/15 ID is Silhouette, but I settled on Chaos due to influence you don’t have to spend to get the various Shaper Necessities (Diesel, Quality Time, and Levy AR Lab Access).
I spent a ton of influence on I’ve Had Worse. Having two I’ve Had Worse helps stop corps on the damage plan yet also gives a ton of draw. It’s also strange installing Net-Ready Eyes with two I’ve Had Worse in hand and getting massive benefits out of them.
The deck uses a bunch of mini-combos to keep moving forward. PPvP and Comet work together to keep the Events coming. Comet is very scary when you can combine a Day Job with one of the run events (SURPRISE!). Net-Ready Eyes combos with I’ve had Worse, Mimic and Atman. Multithreader powers up Study Guide. Escher multiplies the power of Battering Ram and Study Guide.
The one drawback to the deck is if you stop chaining together cards. The second you have to click for a dollar or card it feels bad. Very rarely I run out of cards, but often I find I get below 3 credits and thus can’t get off a Sure Gamble without clicking for a few credits.
The one modification I’m looking forward to is Exclusive Party. Having 6 Exclusive Party is going to help with money generation by increasing the number of mini-burst econ cards. Yes, I’m now spending tons of influence on Exclusive Party + I’ve Had Worse, but it’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.
