Hmm, so if you draw a double op, you have to spend a click in addition, right?

No, because that would be one of those additional costs the card talks about.

Yep that's what makes this card playable in some decks
Would this overrule the "play only if you have scored an agenda this turn" of Aggressive Negotiation, or is it a case of negating effects taking precedence over enabling effects?

Also, Precognition.

"The play only if..." is a conditional effect not an additional cost so no AD does not overrule it

Wouldn't that be broken, I play scorched earth good bye.
FAQ 1.4 says:

Looking at the top 3 cards of R&D does not remove the cards from R&D. The cards are still in R&D and able to be affected by operations played with Accelerated Diagnostics.
• Each operation the Corp looks at can be played in any order. The Corp does not have to play the topmost operation first.
• When the Corp plays an operation, he fully resolves it before playing another one or trashing the rest of the cards.
• If any of the 3 cards looked at are no longer in the top 3 positions of R&D (as determined when Accelerated Diagnostics was played), then those cards cannot be played.
• The Corp can only play and look at the top 3 cards (as determined when Accelerated Diagnostic was played). Even if other cards are moved into the top 3, those cards are not
eligible to be played/looked at by the Accelerated Diagnostics.


I got confused by 3td point and send some additional questions to FFG. Lukas replied confirming that:
1) if cards leave top3, for example by drawing the card with Green Level Clearence, they cannot be played anymore and will not be trashed (it was also strongly suggested that if they somehow got back to top3 they are still unaffected by AD)
2) shuffling your deck during AD resolution (for example Corporate shuffle) makes all cards unplayable (they're not trashed)
3) using precognition during AD resolution breaks playability for cards put deeper into RnD, but if the card looked at with AD stays in top cards it can still be played
So many problems with the wording on this card. In my opinion if they would errata the card to say draw three cards from RD and immediately play any operations drawn trash any non operation card.
JTG, it in effect does: " If any of those cards are operations, you may play them ... Trash the rest "
