Playing around with Shaper denial cards. Chakana and Record Reconstructor waste corp clicks (perhaps more important to the corp than Econ) while Paricia and Deep Thought help get assets and ICE out of play.

Many cards that are free or very inexpensive for Kate to play.

Updated with Self-modifying Code, Plascrete Carapace and Prepaid VoicePAD.

I feel like you'll be poor against any kind of deck that runs taxing ice. Creeper, while not god awful, is going to be a pain in your ass breaking sentries repeatidly, and god forbid you meet archer. Which is why you will want sharpshooter. I like the outside of the box thinking, but denial could be shaped differently. In my experience, crescentus is a decent denial method. It also pairs well with false echo. Having to rerez ice after being hammered with recurring crescentus is a pain in the ass, especially if you keep siphoning.

I'd rather see opus econ, more utility programs imported instead of lucky find. Opus should be all you need, but I suggest running Aesops to eat extra RRs and programs no longer needed. Throw in daily casts and you get nice extra econ with aesop's.

Thanks, @x3r0h0ur. In my limited testing so far I've either been filthy rich (landed a couple Account Siphon early) or grossly poor (against an aggressive City Surveillance deck. I do like Magnum Opus but didn't include it initially due to MU limitations.

Creeper is actually on par with Ninja against most Sentries (better on some worse on others), and while I've yet to see an Archer, I'm not sure I'd do much better unless I go heavy and splash Garrote. Maybe Knight with Sharpshooter could work too.

I'll try adding Aesop's Pawnshop and Magnum Opus in for sure. Maybe drop Deep Thought and Lucky Find to use the INF for Knight.

Thanks for the thoughts! Will likely post more revisions on the idea...I think it can work well once refined.
