Nothing new or innovative here. Dockland and Sneakdoor creates HQ pressure and Conduit and Khusyuk (with nine 2 cost cards) creates plenty of R&D pressure, forcing the Corp to spread their ICE around.

You can use Tao's ability to stack ICE to your favor depending on card draw, preferably forcing the Corp to protect HQ leaving remotes and R&D or Archives weak. Parlay Overclock into SMC to get the breaker/program you need when you need it. Boomerang comes thru in a pinch and Leech makes your breakers less econ dependent.

Been fun to play with, but open to tuning suggestions.

Professional contacts is cool but I think that you need more draw than cash so maybe use other cards for that. Maybe Earthrise Hotel or plain good ol Diesel

After several more plays, I agree. I am testing a swap of Pantograph for Aniccam and 2 Diesel for a 42 card deck. Will report back on how it plays and update the Decklist accordingly.

Updated version: -2x Khusyuk for 2x Diesel, +2 VRcation, swapped Aniccam for Pantograph, -3 Professional Contacts, -3 Telework Contract, +3 Daily Casts, -1 Unity, +1 Atman.

These changes give me heavier card draw, which has allowed me to setup Econ (Rezekis/DZMZ) much quicker to get out SMCs and pair with Overclock to get my breakers setup. The Atman is situational, but with Tao's ability stacking ICE is not out of the question, making it a strong play under the right conditions.

So far it has played better than the original iteration, but we will see if it has been luck or has potential.
