This deck is fairly straightforward, but is more than meets the eye. The whole idea is to force them to run a sever with Batty installed and Viktor while you have a Defective Brain Chip installed. Between this, Self-Destruct Chips, and NEXT Gold, flatlining the runner is not exactly rocket science. However, this deck can actually do a lot of damage to decks that can't get Parasite online early. In the first round of nationals, I scored out on a Pre-paid Kate because she couldn't get a parasite and got locked out by NEXT Silver. Use these windows to score Self-Destruct Chips and you only need 1 or 2 other NEXT rezzed for a lethal Batty play off of a NEXT Gold. Gang Sign Leela is a tough match-up, but you just have to make her come steal your agendas. Don't let them sit in hand and don't be afraid to make her let you rez NEXT in return for giving her an agenda.

Overall, this deck went 3-2 at Nationals. I lost a Leela game and a really wonky Study Guide Kate game where she had all the money in the world. I beat two Pre-Paid Kates and a Chaos Theory. I dropped after 5 rounds to go explore other Gencon stuff, but overall, I was extremely pleased by this deck's performance.
