This is my current work in progress Kate deck. Traces are very popular at the moment especially due to Assassin and NBN IDs. So the basis idea behind this build is to boost Link in affordable way. Econ is based on nearly zero credit installs that feeds the writer and drip econ from Underworld Contact. Im not sure about the draw, Diesel can fill your hand fast, and Visage gives a econ boost and it's more affordable then ProCo. A common turn is draw a card, install Resource, install Hardware/Programm to feed Writer and get the Drip Economy running.

First impressions of this deck are ok but i need to test more. Usefull includes/swapes could be Sacrificial Construct vs Keegan Lane and Quality Time to hit the keypieces faster. Maybe i add NACH. Im not sure about cutting to 45 cards, becaus if you found the first Rabbit Hole you get rid of 2 cards in R&D.

A couple things:

Sacrificial Construct can't protect Technical Writer. SacCon protects a program or hardware, but has no effect on resources.

Cutting to 45 cards in a 3x Rabbit Hole deck is always good. It gives you the consistency of a 42 card deck the moment you have your first RH and 5, plus each Tech Writer on the board gains 3.

There are cards you can cut. Levy AR Lab Access doesn't seem worthwhile here; you aren't running enough events and cards to make much use of it.

HQ Interface and Legwork is probably overkill. I'd stick with one.

Refractor and Lockpick are 4 card slots that could be 1. You can just run ZU.13 Key Master or Gordian Blade. I think the stealth suite is dead weight here.

DaVinci is really nice as a singleton to get a card you wish was in your heap or stack onto the field at instant time, plus it synergizes with the rest of the deck really well. I'd try to get one in. Smacking face-first into a nasty tracer and dropping 3x Rabbit Hole onto the field is pretty fun.

@FarCryFromHuman thanks a lot for the feedback. Refractor and Lockpick are suposed to feed the writer but you are right that they fill 4 Slots.

Sacrificial Construct is a Keegan Lane counter, not to protect Writer, i need to correct that ;).

It think i will go with ZU.13 Key Master, it's cheap like Refractor and doesn't eat up MU. For Stuff like Tollbooth i have the D4v1d instead.

With - 3x Lockpick, - 1x Refractor, - 1x HQ Interface and - 1x Levy AR Lab Access i have 43 with 2 unspend influence. So i can go for another Legwork and a DaVinci .

Seems solid, i will test it and update the list. I thank you very much @FarCryFromHuman
