I hate your ice

Don't know if this will work. Just trying to build a deck around eating ice.

As much as I love Alpha/Omega conceptually, they’re just Not Good™.

Replace Crypsis with Mimic so you can deal with your number 1 pain-in-the-butt: Swordsman.

Have you considered Singularity as an additional way to hate on ICE (and servers in general)? I've had some success with that.

With Eater, Keyhole is never a bad idea, but definitely a personal preference. If you are going for Keyhole, I'd replace the Stimhacks with Amped Up for those extra Keyhole runs.

I like most of what's going on here, Mr. Li is great but maybe Earthrise Hotel can help out? Try the two, see which feels better.

Thanks! Added two Keyholes (lost one Spinal Modem), replaced Alpha with a Cerberus "Lady" H1, and made the Mimic/Amped Up changes.

I hate to be one of Those Guys but I figured I'd point out that Singularity doesn't trash ICE, just cards installed in the remote itself.

MU might be a problem if you're going both keyhole and Opus. Sure, with the modem your rig is Keyhole, Opus, Eater, but that might still be an issue.

As well, you're going to have a lot of trouble drawing the correct kill event right when you need it. Li might help, but in a similar deck (with Valencia instead) I went 1 of each cutlery, 3x Planned Assault, and 3 Deja Vu. That also works really well with your 1 of Siphon.

I also completely agree with the Amped vs stimhack. Eater means you can basically safely face check everything, but it also means that the only way you can threaten is with a card effect. Stimhack gives you cash, but it also means you can't use another card effect with it. It doesn't work well together. Also knight and eating events don't play well together sometimes, but also, if you gotta get on, you gotta get in
