Run Silent
Advantages
This is a nice low drain aug that is loads of fun for a stealth player. Experienced players will be listening for footsteps and it's great to be able to pop up without them hearing you. Using this with the vision aug to see your enemy through a wall and then walking (or running with the speed aug) up behind them is very satisfying.
Disadvantages
No disadvantages worthy of note, except you can't have its opposing aug. This aug can cause a bit of overconfidence though. Just because you are being sneaky is no reason to let down your guard.
Opposing
Again, paranoia is a great defense. If you can't hear their footsteps, sometimes you can hear them switching weapons or activating/deactivating augs. Look around a lot, watch for movement. The vision aug also helps a lot to defend against this: they think they are sneaking up the ladder, you are watching them through the floor and can mow them down before they pop their head up.
