Snatch and Grab can target the following resources: netrunnerdb.com

The commonly played connections worth mentioning are:

• Kati Jones, which can be a hard setback to the runner if she has been loaded several times,
• Aesop's Pawnshop (Noise will be sad to lose his best pal),
• Professional Contacts (5 creds to install, terribly weak to Snatch and Grab right after its install),
• The Supplier,
• Mr. Li

Some connection are hilarious to trash with this op: * Rachel Beckman (if the trace fires, she'll get kidnap or leave you), * Tri-maf Contact, * and Theophilius Bagbiter (although this is likely to be played with a bunch of decoys).

All in all, this card targets mid to long term economy, and successfully fires if you happen to be already winning the economy war. I thus suspect that this can be played in glacier decks to definitely set your economic advantage.

Modded is an awesome accelerator, far too often undervalued.

Modded installs a piece of your RIG with a cost reduction of 3 creds. This means that you earn 3 credits and you install something at the same time.

Let's see when you might use this card:

Early game

The early game is where modded shines the brightest. The credits reduction at the beginning of the game (on a breaker - Gordian Blade, Snowball, Mimic or on Magnum Opus) is actually far more precious as they have more value than end-game credits. Indeed, having more credits early game gives you a stronger position mid-to-late game. Think of it as an investment rewarding you with compound interests. Besides, it might gives you the slight push you need to have a few lucky access on R&D and HQ while the corp stabilizes.

Mid to late game

Further in the game, modded is arguably less useful, unless you built your deck with Modded in mind:

• If you added HQ Interface or R&D Interface, you have perfect targets for Modded
• Scorched Earth is trendy again! Protect yourself with a customized Plascrete Carapace!
• Other good targets for a late game Modded are a 2nd/3rd Atman (outside of Kate), Nerve Agent, Medium.

Other uses

Although Modded is an awesome card (see above), it is not often imported in criminal or anarch decks, as it costs 2 influence points for an economy cards. There are several cases where you might want to import it though:

• If you play Anarch with either Wyldside or Duggar's (with Joshua B. to get a 5th click and not waste too many drawn cards)
• If you play Andromeda and you still want to reliably run first turn (modding a desperado turn 1 in Andy is pretty sweet).

Flavor In the picture, you can see a runner likely to be Kate "Mac" McCaffrey, installing Magnum Opus on her Rig. On the background, a skyline of buildings can be seen. If it is truly Kate on the picture, then the city might very well be New Angeles (see New Angeles City Hall flavor text). You may also notice two books on the far side of the desk, which means that Amazon has yet to digitalize the whole sum of human knowledge in the Android universe.

The flavor text provides a nice explanation to how the cards work and why Modded is truly a Shaper card: no off-the-shelf hardware or program here, but a creation designed and developed with fondness and love.
