Nasir has terrified me ever since he was released - the thought of having to throw away all of my hard-earned credits on a run meant there was some serious deckbuilding to be done, and I wasn't sure I had the chops to pull it off.

I've been in a bit of a runner funk for the past couple of months, failing to really get excited about any of the decks I was knocking together in the wake of running a surprisingly effective Valencia/Darwin build for some time.

I needed inspiration, and a new runner, and my eye was drawn to Nasir. Could it be his time? Three days of brain-burning, sweating, chopping and changing cards led me to this stealth build. I took it to Netrunner night last night. It won games. I think partially because Nasir can be just as hard for the corp to get its head around as it can for the runner.

Maybe that surprise advantage will disappear as my opponents get used to it, but I'm looking to mutate the deck as I go. Thoughts welcome!

Omni Drive is an interesting splash for me. What do you tend to us it on? If you have memory floating around would you consider Crescentus over Emergency Shutdown? Also I'd put a little more raw econ in there - feels antithetical but sometimes early on you want the money just THERE to install various things the ol' fashioned way. I'd consider taking out some of the R&D pressure, at least 1 Net Celebrity, and possibly even 1 or 2 of the Order of Sols.

What kind of decks did you play against?

Thanks! My thinking was to get dagger, refractor and corroder out on the omni drives where possible, to free up memory for the three cloaks (which along with silencer and lockpick run the strength boost for the two stealth breakers). Figured I'd try it ahead of straight memory boosts because of the recurring creds.

It's just gone up against NBN so far - hairy stuff without anti-tag or anti-meat damage, but managed to sneak through. The R&D pressure meant I knew when scorch was on its way, which let me start selling off Paricia's and Order of Sols to start cranking up my cred pool. They were kept fairly poor rezzing their ICE, which worked in my favour as well.

I think I'm going to run it a few more times as is, to get a better feel for it, but I think losing a net celeb and a sol for a couple of quick econ burst card seems like a good shout.
