The release of GRNDL is very close, so here at Bad Publicity we take a look at this new identity.
Will you choose to use this at your local Store Championship?
If you are on the fence maybe this discussion will push you one way or another.

Great video, this identity is very similar to NEXT which I run. The decrease in influence hurts but the boost you can get at times in the beginning is huge. Probably a rush style deck will be good with GRNDL

I think the opportunity for a great start by having access to restructuring, or hedge fund in your opening hand will really strengthen this deck, some one could easly face tank a janus first turn vrs grndl and thats very scary with all there kill options. Its not that you start with 10, its that 9 times out of 10 you start with 14.

I don't think 5 credits early helps you enough to justify the hit in influence or the bad pub. I was just wrestling with the influence limit in a GRNDL build, and then I thought of a solution, just switch my ID to BABW, get everything I need and a decent ability, and I don't have to start with bad pub.
BABW and BWBI aren't that great. I have no idea how good GRNDL will be-- just taking existing BABW ideas and porting them to GRNDL will probably be worse, but maybe there's a specific deck where GRNDL shines. Just like Kate and Kit. You have to build a GRNDL deck with GRNDL in mind.
I have no ideas for it right now though so I'm going to stick with BABW and the other corps. (I'm not as loyal to my favorite corp, Jinteki, as I am to my favorite runner, Kit. Overall I'm pretty runner-biased, I want runners to win.)
