Hayley's Pet Chameleons

TheNameWasTaken 1

A very new player's (me, I mean) attempt to build a deck around Chameleons as the main breakers. Hayley's bonus install and Autoscripter reduce the click loss from installing them over and over, LLDS Processors boost them to reasonable strength so that only really high-cost ice are stopped, Sahasrara prevents money loss from repeated installs, Scheherazade makes money from the installs. Tyson Observatory, SMC and Diesel help with finding all the key pieces. Without actual playtesting (because I don't actually have most of these cards) this looks to me like a decent, if somewhat fragile, deck.

Any deck that does this with Chameleon wants Technical Writer real bad.

Look at Net-Ready Eyes to get Chammys up to 7, but you still need an answer for big ice (Crypsis is not that answer, but consider Overmind).

I would cut I've Had Worse and Savoir-faire for shaper solutions to those problems (Quality Time, New Angeles City Hall, Film Critic, Deus X, to make room for 2x D4v1d and 2-3 Scavenge.

D4v1d did occur to me, but I thought it was too expensive influence-wise to splash. I can certainly see how it'd be a better answer to big ice than Crypsis, though. Unlike Overmind, which really puzzles me - I don't think I'd have the MU to keep it going for long. Could you shed some light on that suggestion?

If I do free up influence for D4v1d, do you think it'd be reasonable to ditch Sahasrara and instead go with London Library as a way to not go broke installing Chameleon over and over? And if I do, is there anything I could include that could tutor for the library?
