At least you've got it down to min deck size - mine always end up 65+ in a 45 min deck :-/

Just can't seem to make my mind up.

You're VERY low in income, and Pawn isn't worth the deck space. Déjà Vu or Clone Chip would save time and thus be more efficient.

I dont think its awful, but theres defo room for a little tightening up :)

I have a soft spot for chess decks myself but you don't necessarily have to include all the caissas. Think about what you want to focus on: if its ice destruction, then you don't need the Rooks - keep the Bishops but pack some parasites and plenty of recursion to bring them back. If you want to concentrate on making ice too pricey to rez (which seems to be your plan with the Criminal splashes), then visa versa: ditch the Bish and the Ice Carver and include other support cards for the Rooks.

You defo need more money - more cash is (almost) never a bad thing. Sherezade doesn't generate all that much dollar and opens you up to programming trashing. Pawns are probably too slow to be worthwhile anymore - better to replace them with cards thatll help you draw up your key pieces quickly, like I've Had Worse or the new Anarch turbocharged draw engine of Adjusted Chronotype + Wyldside. Symmetrical Visage will help with both problems. When I first started building decks I never included enough draw - don't make my mistake!

Finally, since you're not packing any multi-access cards like Medium or R&D Interface, I guess your aim is to power into remotes when the corp tries to score out. That's fine but it leaves you open to fast advance - a Clot would help here.

Of course a lot of this depends on what datapacks you have and who you're playing against, but hope that helped a bit!
