A control/denial toolbox deck. Went undefeated in Swiss and DE with an overall 8-0 result. Won 5 games against various NEH, 2 against Jinteki:RP and 1 against Harmony Medtech.
The Deck basically is Anarch-style various denial (Imp, Parasite) - especially asset hate - and Aesop's Pawnshop economy engine combined with shaper-specific recursion and cost-efficient toolbox breaker suite able to provide an immediate threat to where the Corp is the weakest. Depending on the meta influence may be spared for D4v1d or a couple of Datasuckers + 1 more Parasite.
Our meta is kinda NEH and RP-heavy so I bet on 2x Imp for maximum denial and 6 Influence spent paid off immensely. My first tutor via SMC or Test Run was Imp in most games.
Nerve Agent was another HUGE card to win me 2 games by a landslide. A better thing is sometimes people don't even see it coming.
I couldn't find any use for a Sharpshooter except feeding it to Aesop's (which is also acceptable) though there is no reason not to play it. (It was just me to not have faced even a single Archer or Grim during the whole tournament)
Scavenge was also of not so much use though a fresh Imp or Lady is always a good thing so I don't really feel like dropping it.
2x Plascrete was totally a meta-call (St.Petersburg Corps are known to run meat damage even in HB, and people say it's a common thing to find yet another district completely blown up xD). Otherwise feel free to add whatever Shaper card you like.
P.S. Storechamp was held in "Hobbit" board game store on 07/02/15 with a total attendance of 28 players.

Not my deck, but I suppose he can use Pawnshop for daily casts(3), armitage(2), Imp(2), cache(3) and also recur Cerberus, Atman, Deus X, Sharpshooter with clone chip. Enough synergy to me. |

Add 2 astrolabe, 3 clone chip(to recure imp/cache and eat them again), 1-2 smc(when you have your rig out). Aesop cache engine is really good and it does sinergyze very well with imp which is one of the best cards by himself in current meta. |

Piloting question, what if you don't see your personal workshop until late game? |

I also took a variant of this deck to a local tournament (did 2 out of 14 players), and it was a blast ! The only changes I made is removing Stimhack and one Plascrete Carapace for one Earthrise Hotel and an Utopia Shard, and also added one Feedback Filter for annoying Jinkteki Net Damage Decks (It won me a match). Basically running with a fully charged Nerve Agent in a Jinteki: Personal Evolution without fear of death is amazing (as long you're stocked on money, which this deck can do). Earthrise Hotel is really great in this deck, it helps you draw replacement Astrolabe or other cards to keep selling and optimising that Kate free install credit each turn. The game I lost with that deck was when I could not draw any money cards for the first 20 cards against a Jinteki RP, which then took his scoring window to lock out the game with Caprice Nisei and a Nisei MK II scored. Anyway great deck, pretty fun to play this instead of Noise CacheShop or Kate Prepaid in tournaments. |

How effective is Aesop's Pawnshop? Are you normally trashing Icebreakers to make room for better ones you've drawn, or extra Plascrete Carapace/Astrolabe, or something else. Seems odd as a 3-of without more synergy.
