Has anyone got a discard deck that works with that combo yet?

Yes, I have pulled that off a couple of times. When I did it yesterday I swear I was losing 10 - 9 - 0 then that resolved and total swing in my favor and I won. But my deck isn't designed for just that combo. Although admittedly before I got the timing down on it, at least once some one threw it back in my face with scientific espionage on my doomsday. Are you looking for a build with that combo as the main purpose? Otherwise I can share my deck and see what you think.

Too expensive too vulnerable. And by the time you have enough resource to drop it they most likely have enough resources to deal with it. At least the good decks will. Yes espionage is VERY prominent now, everyone is playing a green something. Sooooo... I think it's a bit of a counter war and drawing war out there. So surprises are important. Copying is important too. Big combos are... Vulnerable. As I've found out with my damn courtesans

I've also tested that combo, but make sure you have more than just the combo in the deck... Haven't build a whole deck around it... It is a bit like my deck you just faced a few minutes ago "Please, ORDER Again" (Castel d'Angelo, Pandemic) which I can only pull off because of all the counters in my deck...

Sorry, you just have to make a new account.

Tuism I don't really think its that expensive especially when you compare the total cost of that combo of 14 vs a Animus Reboot with 12. But with a discard deck I found it was actually pretty easy to pull off if the game lasts awhile because you can usually make sure the opponent has no cards in their hand. I agree with you Uncloned, make sure you have more than that in the deck. I also have a bunch Knowledge Has a Price which is extremely evil to use with a day one Doomsday.

I just replied in another thread (by Tuism) that I wouldn't choose KhaP very often... But in your strategy it would fit nicely... Will try it out myself soon... Thanks for the idea

No problem, you can't really keep strategy or deck build secrets for long in a game like this anyway. I would love feedback on my deck if interested, I know it could still use tweaking but just not sure what yet.

If u feel comfortable posting it in the gameplay section for some feedback, you should! People on this forum are very helpful.

I actually played a deck like that actually, heavy discard after knowledge has a price. Interesting. Was pretty strong too, but I'm not sure why

Per Uncloned's suggestion I posted mine over in the deck discussion under "Feedback" if anyone wants to take a look.

I use that combo in my destruction deck but I also pack some Animus Reboot and History Glitch in that deck. It's really up to you to lure your opponent into using the counters on some other cards but I notice I can safely play it late-mid game to late game once he has most of his sites and agents down.
