The Source isn't out yet over here but I've been working on this deck in my mind since Sage got spoiled. Can't wait to try it! Sage is such a weird breaker! But here's how it works.

It's a "fixed" breaker that gains strength from unused MU. The card itself is 2MU and we still need an AI or Sentry breaker. To fix the first problem we add Dinosaurus. Sage can break multiple types of ICE but still fits the criteria of being a Non-AI breaker so it can be hosted on Dino and gains +2 strength. So with Chaos Theory's +1MU that leaves Sage at strength 7. Neat! As for the second problem: Creeper is 0MU if is 2 or more. Install a couple of Rabbit Hole and BAM full breaker suite using just two breakers. There's one last problem: multiple sub ice! Both Creeper and Sage are 2 to break a sub. e3 Feedback Implants helps out with this problem, and should you switch ID's to Kate "Mac" McCaffrey: Digital Tinker or the upcoming Haley, you can fit an Overmind in there use while setting up, which combos well with e3, as you may know.

As for the other cards: Money comes from a suite of doubles, 2x Lucky Find, 2x Hostage and 3x Power Naps to get started, Professional Contacts to drip money while drawing your pieces, and to bring it all together: The Supplier. You definitely want to mulligan for him or a Hostage.

Cool deck idea! Sage is such a cool breaker. I was thinking; why use rabbit hole? it costs you 4 credits to save 1 MU, why use Akametsu Memchip instead? That's 1 credit for one MU. That leaves you to swap Underworld Contact for something else as well, but it's just a thought :)

On the above thought maybe Kati Jones could be that something? If you want a two piece combo to give you efficient mid/late game economy, isn't Oracle May with Motivation an option? Takes less cards, but as said above you can add mem chips in those cards for a bigger sage. But i haven't actually tried the power nap economy, so what do i know, maybe its excessive.

Scavenge to move Sage to Dino also seems like an option.
