help a noob

So with all the new rules and my limited collection i made this deck. I have 2 core set, first cycle, creation and control, honor and profit, data and destiny, terminal directive, runner world champ deck, free mars and escalation.

I would love if any one would comment on it, what cards would u chance and for what? Is it work trying to get link cards so i can use that underworld contract?

Big fan of Omar. I think getting link and underworld contacts in a deck that has trouble with drawing through enough of the deck to find the second contacts might be too slow of a pay-out. Not to mention that you need two pieces of link too. You would need to run something like Rabbit Hole.

I think the one issue you may face is that you do not actually have enough multi-access. Getting a single access is not really strong enough when you have to get that access with the conspiracy breakers. I recommend running something like Nerve Agent if you are already on the progenitor route. Wanton Destruction might also be a card you could use, though nerve agent is better with your ID. I'd run two copies so you find at least one of them.

In playing the deck, did you find yourself lacking card draw or money? Depending on the answer, you could try obelus, or even splash Professional Contacts or Laguna Velasco District instead of diesel. It comes down to how much you need to see of your deck.

One other concern is big sentries. I am not sure whether datasucker, ice carver and net-ready eyes are enough.

I have found that with Ice Carver alone, Black Orchestra and MKUltra become 3 credits cheaper to break some of the more common code gates and sentries. Ichi becomes strength 3, Fairchild 3 becomes strength 4. With Datasucker as well, you should be more or less alright.

I agree with Severijin on the Nerve Agent point. If you want to free up 6 influence, I would suggest Inject instead of Diesel. One credit to play, but you get 4 cards and if you hit your conspiracy breakers, you immediately get your money back and can still play the breakers.
