Underworld Contacts give you recurring credits for Drug Dealer making for a Criminal Wyldside Pancakes combination with the upside of both of them being good on their own. Besides turning on Contacts, Dyson gives you extra MU to install both Datasuckers and Multithreader along with your breaker suite, allowing you store up temporary credits that you can turn into permanent ones with Desperado and Security testing.

Passport, Faerie/Mimic, and Corroder are your main breaker suite with Zu for remotes if needed. Shrike can function like Switchblade with Threader credits and suckers. Most games you won't need it but it's a nice fallback option. If you find yourself really wanting to spend influence elsewhere, Femme Fatale instead of Shrike would be a reasonable change, especially with 2x Tollbooth in nearly every deck right now.

Still in the early phases here. Event totals probably need to be tweaked and I'm not sure if Underworld is any better than having another DL/Casts/Testing/Siphon but time will tell. Only one barrier breaker with 0 recursion is a bit sketchy too, might need a Breach or a Clone Chip instead of Shrike.

Great sustain with burst economy and draw early, give it a try!

Shrike is a good idea that I wouldn't have thought of. It is (another) sad thing fr criminals these days that it makes sense to go out of faction for 2 sentry breakers (which supposedly they're the best at ...).

One thing that strikes me is given that there are 4 full-value targets for career fair, is the third one worth dropping the 3rd account siphon?

@sruman Yeah, they were hangers on from when I had more targets. I think I'm going to try 1 Career Fair, 3 Siphon and 3 Dirty Laundry for now. It might make sense to drop CF entirely.

Shrike isn't entirely necessary, you won't use it most games but it really helps you leverage a money advantage in the match ups it is relevant in. I think I'll keep it for now as an Ace up my sleeve at least until I feel the need to spend the influence elsewhere, in which case Femme will fill the same role fairly well.
