This is a rush deck that leverages the threat of advanced traps and an eventual net damage kill. Within the first few turns, you should push out a 5/3 with Mushin No Shin. After this, there is a lot of pressure for the runner to check all advanced cards, because the next one might win you the game.

I would like to fit in more economy, a third snare, and another trap.

I think you could go up to 3 Junebug and take out the Overwriters entirely. Personally, I prefer Junebug to Overwriter, for three reasons. First, triple-advanced Junebug is lethal, whereas Overwriter is not. Secondly, it frees up influence for other cards, like Aggressive Secretary. Third, it only costs 1 to trigger, which is less of a strain on your economy. If you are strictly aiming for a kill, Overwriter could work, but like I said, Junebug with 3 advancements is 6 damage.

To make room for additions, I think Batty could come out, since his only worthwhile options are 1 net damage or ETR, unless you have him over Archives to trigger Crick for some reason haha. There's your third Snare!, and you could toss in Medical Research Fundraiser or Celebrity Gift for econ. Just some initial suggestions to get you going.

@slobad31 Overwriters have nice synergy with Ronin an Neural EMP. I'll try add one Neural Katana cause Batty works good with it- more net damage and situations to kill runner.

@slobad31 I can see you why you prefer Junebug over Overwriter but I've found Junebug to be significantly more difficult to land because of Deus X. There are also ways to use the activation cost as a bluff. For example, not triggering a non-lethal Snare! to disguise an agenda as a Overwriter.

I do agree with your Marcus Batty comments though. The dream is a first or second turn Cortex Lock with Batty installed, but this is neither consistent nor likely.

As of now: -2 Marcus Batty +1 Snare! +1 Project Junebug. I've usually found that Medical Research Fundraiser doesn't give you enough to warrant paying the runner.

@VoidCircuit Totally forgot about Deus X. It's not really played in my meta, but it's definitely a valid concern. I see the appeal of Batty and CL, but I agree that's unlikely.
