Man, this deck looks so lean! The programs in particular are very tight. He has breakers (a very good suite I may add), Parasite, and Keyhole. Just the best. Also, I really like the weird economy events. 1x Lucky Find and 2x Queen's Gambit--never seen that before. The single Account Siphon is pretty funny, although I'm not sure what else SOT is for in this deck.

I guess Quality Time, Account Siphon, Lucky Find are all targets for SoT, but really in the right situation any event is re-useable particualrly economy cards when making that important run...

The thing is, most economy events give very little return when retrieved with SOT. Lucky Find would cost 5 clicks and 3 credits to gain 9 credits... that's a gain of 1 credit. That's like an easy mark, but it takes 2 cards and uses up a SOT that has so much more potential. Quality Time would also give very little value to retrieve. I suppose it could be that he/she plays a SOT to the table and leaves it there for whatever he/she will need in the future, kind of like All-Nighter, which actually loses you a click in the long run but lets you wait until you need it. Now that I think about it Deja Vu is could be an option to let SOT retrieve more than just events, but that seems a little convoluted.

Okay, that was supposed to be in two paragraphs, sorry. The preview showed it right. I'm using the and (without the spaces), so I don't know what happened. >.>

Obviously this guy is a good player seeing as he won a chronos tourney, but there are a couple of card choices here which to me just seem suboptimal. e3 Feedback Implants saves credits with Knight and can help bust past Bioroids, but having just a single copy makes both cases rather inconsistent. Lucky Find is also a weird pick, it's not bad per se but it doesn't seem worth it to me. I'd probably cut the e3 and the Lucky Find for another Account Siphon.

I could be completely wrong here, I haven't used the deck or anything, but these couple things just stand out to me. Also, this is in no way meant to bash the deck owner or anything; he had great success with this deck, so more power to him.
