Nope, they don't. Shadowrun is over, Security Consultant is Trashed,
and the Runners return to SAfehouse.

Gear attached to a Runner team member on the Shadowrun; just makes it a
little more dangerous for those Deckers to go on a run.

A St. Sam deck works well, if you can't sleaze the Challenges, you can
usually overpower and defeat them. I tried an Elven deck, and it was
too diversified (and the Runners too weak) to deal with all the
challenges and objectives. A Mage deck works pretty well, and I am of
the opinion that a Troll or Ork deck would work good, too. Tough to
get a good Gear mix for all Runners involved, though.
