The free bad pub gives you innate All Seeing I protection, and the ability to blackmail remotes can stop the corp from rushing, which appears to be one of the bigger flaws with the deck.
I just started running the deck and I’m planning on adding a single Activist Support once D&D becomes more widespread, just so I can get the bad pub back if the corp tries to get saucy with me.
In addition, Anarchs have a few very helpful cards in their factions that support DLR that others might not be able to import. Joshua B., Scrubber, Inject, Street Peddler, Off-Campus Apartment, and Faust are all really nice and fit into the deck almost perfectly. Other factions will most likely result in a different angle of attack beside the DLR.

Honestly, I hate this deck and only play it because I have nothing else sleeved, but it wins games so thats cool.
This is what I’m using right now, still working on the kinks. I went with Wyldside/Pancakes because I don’t know how I feel about Drug Dealer, and I don’t trust Peddler with this many events in the deck. I put in Keyhole as a plan B, although I’m probably going to remove it because I’ve never had to use it. I might also remove the regular breakers, they are mostly there as backup in case of Executive Boot Camp, Beta Test, etc. rezzing something Faust can’t easily break.
Dealer means you are basically playing the game at 0 until you siphon them. Seems like you can get the same effect in-faction (no influence) and you don’t have to pray your daily casts timing works out with the cards you draw.
FWIW I won a local GNK with a Dealer version and am now trying to make the Wyldside version work, and for some reason it is just… slow?
I like dealer better. It gives you some extra protection against kill decks and let’s you draw a card when hosting it on OCA. Oh, it actually works directly. Chronotype will only work once you have Wyldside, too
Sure, but comparing dealer to chrono is unfair.
The swap would be 3 dealers for 3 Wyldside, meaning that if ever you have a game with a dealer in play, you’d actually have a Wyldside. Chronotype would be whatever card you’re swapping out to fit chrono in that ISN’T dealer.
If you have 2 dealers in play, then you could say you have a wyldside and a chrono.
Drawing cards from OCA is definitely legit, but I don’t think it is too much of a loss when compared to Wyld, in that you have a ton of other connections to play on it anyways.
As for protection against kill decks, I definitely feel that as well, but there’s also the disadvantage of offering bigger Sweeps Weeks to NBN decks (which are arguably the worst matchup with their ability to score from hand and spam wraparounds). I’d rather handle kill decks with IHW since I can use that card as additional card draw in other matchups.
Overall, I think the wyldside build should be better. The additional cost of Wyldside isn’t too high , and when compared to losing a credit per turn (and the clicks “lost”, even when you time your Daily Casts correctly, spent clicking for a credit [to play faust for example]) it seems the two are actually pretty equivalent.
I just discovered this thread after finding FF0X’s decklist in the tournament winning decklist. I independently created a DLR deck and it focuses way more on getting the 4-card combo up and running (Joshua B., Fall Guy, DLR, and Wireless Net Pavilion). I can consistently get the combo online by turn 3 if you mulligan properly.

The basics are to draw, draw, draw, and draw some more until you get the 4-piece combo. Use blackmail to threaten remotes that aren’t fast advanced from. Bonus play that I think sets my deck apart from the rest: Use Josh B. for 5 clicks. Use Duggars for 10 cards, Use Faust to run with impunity after all of the blackmails are used up or if the Corp is rezzing using Executive Boot Camp.
Heh, I made myself play HB (my least favorite faction) for 6 months after repping NBN for the 2013 competition season :)—HBCI was equally fun, I must say :).
I still remember you playing out your 20 card hand during the Louisville elims and suggesting that your opponent play Memory!
