It's quite a lot of work to do here. First of all, play with it and do changes after the game as it will appear naturally what worked and what not.

Just a few obvious changes :

  • consolidate your icebreaker suit. Yog.0 with Datasuckers is fine for code gates, plus you have Faust too... so Leviathan out! Wyrm out too, the rest will do the job much better. Stick to corroder, mimic, yog and faust for example. In the end, you may even minimise it even less, as you find out Faust alone needs just a little additional support... like 2x Mimic and 2x D4V1D, sometimes corroder.

  • strengthen the economy. Sure Gambles with Armitages are okay but Cache is extremely good with Noise and it is a pity not to play them. Ideally combined with Aesop's Pawnshop. To support that even more and also to increase consistency, let Grimoire be your console and play the second copy instead of Turntable and perhaps you won't even need MemStrips. If you own just one, stick to Grimoire and MemStrips.

  • Rethink your influence. Gang sign is a good card, but you don't have enough synergies for it in your deck. Inside jobs too... your breakers are quite good already, maybe it's better to spend influence elsewhere, like Aesop's, Caches, Clone Chips... or if you want to play rogue and have plenty of free influence, you can always add cards like account siphon. Be careful with resources then... i would cut at least half of them anyway.

Best regards.

I think this is undervaluing Noise's ability, with only 10 cards that trigger his ability - my Noise deck is similar to Pacer's from team covenant games, running around 20 viruses in total.

If you're wanting to try something new, I respect that, but let me suggest cards to remove as I am confident they will not serve you well enough to deserve a spot.

Human First - I do not see anything good in this card as the amount of credits you can gain is so low, and that's if you get this out early and you're always neck and neck points wise.

Wyrm - You can't lower strength of something until Wyrm matches the strength first - seems like an unnecessary double-up on credits.

Leviathan - As @Lubo_Boda suggested, you have Yog.0 with Datasucker, you're fine with those.

With cards like Inside Job, Ice Carver and DDoS it's almost like you're going down the ICE-denial route with your Runner, and I'm not 100% sure Noises is the guy for this deck build - Maybe consider Soul Syphon Reina Roja: Freedom Fighter.

A solid Noise deck comprises for Aesop's Pawnshop, lots of expendable viruses, Wyldside and Pancakes as your draw engine, and Hades Shard for the archives pull.

Best of luck to you.
