Kates Gunblade

I had a lot of success with a previous build of cloak and dagger kate and I'm trying out the addition of Silencer to make it more reliable.

This deck also relies on capstone and redundant hardware/programs to cycle through the deck. I'm a little concerned with MU but one toolbox will let me have one of each program out and each akamatsu after is another cloak for economy. I really want to get 3 personal touch in here for boosting cloak to 1 str at least so I only need one recurring credit from cloak/silencer to get to the 6 str of archer. it's could also boost dagger to 2 str allowing me to not use an RC for common ICE (Guard, Fenris, etc) or just boost corroder/Gordian to make runs cheaper overall. I could drop toolbox and akamatsu for just 3 cyberdex chips and replace one other card for the 3 personal touch. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Looks good, only thing is I'd replace capstone with replicator. With replicator you don't have to spend a click and it effectively thins out your deck very quickly to start drawing in to your events like indexing. Not sure why you have rabbit hole in there, I'd replace it for lockpick so you can keep the reoccurring credit theme going so runs are extremely cheap for you.

Runs tend to be cheap enough with cloaks in play. Replicator thins out my deck but I'm more interested in draw power, which capstone works well with the redundancy in the deck. I actually already reworked the deck a little and dropped the toolbox and akamatsu for cybersolution chips. With one chip I can put one each of my programs in play and a second chip let's me put the other two cloaks in play. The cloaks are my recurring creds for any breaker rather than just decoders. I may drop a chip for a toolbox. The toolbox link bonus and recreds can be worth the cost. The rabbit holes are for NBN, midseason, and punitive counter strike, all common in my meta. If there's no need for them I can install one for a cred an use the other two as capstone fuel. Thanks for the comment. :)
