Chopshop

Double trashing a Harbinger nets 3 and 1 card (or -1 tag). Trashing it with both Chop Bot and Aesop means it gets trashed twice. After the first trash it installs itself facedown and then comes the second trash to the heap.

And I don't think you have enough programs to justify 3 Freelance Coding Contracts and 2 Mass Installs. You can maybe pull off 2 Freelance or 1 Mass Install and 1 Freelance per LARLA cycle. I'd just get rid of the Mass Install since you'll be set up and some point and won't need to install much more.

why not replace the retrieval runs with the heap breakers? an why no smc?

Cut 2 Levy AR Lab Access and the two Mass Install and add a couple of Same Old Things. Also swap one Retrieval Run with two Femme Fatale it is godd with scavange. You could also consider Test Run.

This is my first attempt at this deck, still working out the game and getting an idea for putting it all together. Thanks for the suggestions, I'll ask further questions below :)

Also noted, I only have 1 core and all of the Delux, along with The Underway and Future Proof, so my card pool is somewhat limited yet.

@Krams I thought you could use both the abilities of Chop Bot 3000 and Aesop's Pawnshop at the same time? You're not able to trigger both off the same ?

The Mass Install is really there to let me drop Harbinger and anything else on the same instead of having to drop multiple to do the same thing. I was trying to put together a deck that would keep me from spending an entire turn using for draw or 1 at a time. I'd like this deck to be aggressive without being caught short due to or cards.

My thoughts with the Freelance Coding Contracts was I could cycle from hand things I really didn't need, extra breakers or Harbingers for quick , install and trash for cards, retrieve them from the heap by any number of methods and lather-rinse-repeat without spending so as to be ahead and running STAT.

@overlord midas Heap breakers? SMC? Which cards are those? I don't know some of the acronyms and terms you're using.

@DrMarodi I can see your point with the Same Old Things, it will do much the same as the Levy AR Lab Access and Mass Installs in this deck. I'm not so sure I like Femme Fatale, she is very expensive and you'd still have to bump her strength(?) to bypass or break ice, right? And 2 per +1 is inefficient. Paired with Scavenge it doesn't return does it? She costs 9 to install, the next expensive is Battering Ram which results in a 4 loss, or am I missing something? I can see using her here to trash with Scavenge and putting down something like Atman where having +6 to spend on the install would be really good. (Actually, I might move that around and include that, since Atman is AI...)

I do very much like the card Test Run but I don't have it in my collection yet. I'm just at 1 core + all the deluxe + two packs. I'll probably be adding that one when I'm able.

No, you can't use a single trash for both Aesop and Chopbot.

--> SMC <--

heap breakers are: Paperclip, Black Orchestra, MKUltra (you probably don't have them)

Femme Fatale does NOT need to boost strength to bypass, just for breaking. Scavenge can re-install Femme to switch target.

Freelance Coding Contract is awesome if you use it with 4-5 programs, but it's a rare case that you really have that much programs in hand that you won't need. That only happens late game after your rig is complete and only if you draw a lot (for example, first click Quality Time, 2nd click Freelance Coding Contract).
