I’m not sure if this works but a friend of mine and I cant find a flaw in our logic. This is made with the assumption that when using accelerated diagnostics, you can play the the cards in any order.
Think about the following; First turn in nbn, I have Accelerated diagnostics, Jackson and power shutdown in my hand, first click I install jackson, second click I play power shutdown for all of my deck, I use jackson to put back shipment from san san, interns and boom and as my third click I play accelerated diagnostics. I play Interns to install a breaking news, I then play shipment from san san to score breaking news and lastly I play boom to kill the runner. If I’m correct this means that I can win without the runner being able to do anything. Am I correct with this assumption?
Power shutdown need the runner to make a run to works. So no.
Also you can’t score breaking news mid combo during an accelerated diagnostic stack.

Ok, I forgot the power shutdown requirement and I didn’t even know the fact that you didn’t have the window to score in the diagnostic stack. Thanks for the clarification
There are multiple ways to win in the first turn, though, if you stack your deck.
I mean, you could Accelerated Diagnostics into N/A + Interns + Shipment from SanSan with a Breaking News in hand, and then you could score that and play Boom out of hand - it’s unlikely, but it is possible.
@shmeguy shows you how
