Khan. Someone published a deck today and pointed it all : She's weak, and had she have 1 link or a lowering install cost of 2 credits or a better window to trigger her ability, she could have been decent. But I wanted to try it, just to see if you can do it something not bad. If so, this deck could be a decent framework.
A bit of theory first : she offers a nice click-compression, the challenge being how to trigger it often. So you must include many breaker and run a lot. And if you must run a lot, you'd better make impactful run.
Hence the choice of Desperado instead of seeking for links and play full Geist's suite. There's some, of course, but the goal is to burn them as (sort-of) instant economy. Memory not mattering, play Faerie over Shiv.
In the end, forget about asset spamming. Khan cannot answer this effectively, at least not this deck (I added Employee Strikes as an answer, but didn't meet any since). That said, it can handle glacier. Notably, Khan installs her rig quickly. Inside Job is a good way to trigger her ability, with bonus credits if along Temüjin and Desperado. Facechecking works too because their's always an analog or unrezzed piece of ice to pass through. Also, once the first layer of ice is known, there are good play to do with her ability.
Now, with this build, I tend to hit hard R&D and HQ, and I generally comes to get locked out, but the Corp will as well, with money problem and a scoring server probably passable. From then, the game becomes... well, tedious. While the Corp clicks to draw an agenda or something, I'm clicking for credit and loading your Wheel for a hail-mary run that may or may not win the game, or locking the remotes and checking whatever the Corp installs in.
Money comes and go, I tend to assign my Temüjin to central, but when things get thick, they feel a bit far away. Drawing engine is fine, though something with John Masanori could be fine.
I've also tried a version with Honor and Profit breakers instead of Paperclip+Zu, Keyhole instead of The Turning Wheel and few other changes. Maybe a little better.
