"I used to be runner like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee and bullet to my face."
Prior to my first store championship I played lot of HB, but I wasn't really content with my deck. I felt as low as considering playing Astrobiotics, but eventually I decided to step out of my fast-advancing comfort zone.
I've always loved the idea of decks where runner has to steal more agendas than corp has to score. (this, Harmony Medtech with Shi.Kyū, NBN with Market Research, is there any other?) but I'm struggling to make Harmony Medtech any good so I decided for HB, since I feel like it has the most synergies going on. I played a few games online, never landed a kill even in situations when it was certain, because I just wasn't used to this alternative win condition. After the testing I switched Enigma for Viktor 2.0 who's later proven to be much better choice.
Changes I would make after those tourneys:
-1 Project Wotan +1 Hades Fragment
You can only hope that you'll score the right Fragment, just in the right match-up, but even that is better than Project Wotan. Is there a worse hosted agenda counter than Wotan's?
-1 Subliminal Messaging +1 Archived Memories
Archived Memories has proven to be crucial in landing the kill and is clearly more important than a single drop in sea of drip economy.
Obvious choice, but I'm not sold on it yet. Requires more testing.
Thanks to everyone involved, I had the time of my life! The biggest thank you goes to @Twada of our crew.

Your opinion about Project Wotan suggests you had never used it in glacier builds?... |
Love it. I may give this a go, the archer include is savage and the rest of the deck is very well balanced towards getting all of this ICE online at once.
I'd follow your recommendations and lose the Project Wotan's for Hades Fragment and 1x NAPD Contract.
Also, Aggressive Secretary is good as it supports the program trashing of your ICE, but i would be tempted to make these slots 2x PAD Campaign to more the deck even more resistant to econ and asset denial.
Lastly, Subliminal Messaging i think should really be a Green Level Clearance, but that is personal taste.
On the whole this looks a great deck and congrats on posting so highly at not one but two tournaments with it!
