Flashpoint Cycle!

[strundle]

@CrushU

And to be fair, it’s a little weird/impossible? to have it trigger on the Runner’s turn at this point without Fisk + FIS. I suppose Lady in the Red Dress would do it too?)

NEH could trigger as well.

[Orbital_Tangent]

Maybe they didn’t intend for it to work on the Runner’s turn? It is entirely plausible it is an anti-Jackson and that is it. Netrunner has seen plenty of binder fodder before.

Anyway, it would be dumb if they weren’t consistent with how sourcing/instances of things work. No good comes of having games run by weird word-of-God rulings.

[StephenBall]

Just played a game against someone using Null and I have to say it was really annoying to go up against.

[Myriad]

Multisub ice is really just about the only trick you can reliably pull against null.

[cmcadvanced]

They were using reg ass suite?

[StephenBall]

Yeah, Yog/Mimic/Datasucker/Parasite. Was making it pretty difficult to prevent him from getting cheap and easy accesses.

[moistloaf]

It’s a silly idea, but Null just makes me wanna try Switchblade/Silencer in Anarch again. Goal is to have 2 or 3 Suckers running wild by the late game; and yes I did play a MemStrips

Thing is, Anarch has no shortage of options when it comes to beating (see: stomping) glacier.

[StephenBall]

That sounds fun. I definitely see power in the ID, but all Anarch ID’s generally are really good.

[cmcadvanced]

How did lotus/little engine work out?

[StephenBall]

Well, I didn’t have either in my deck. So maybe in an alternate reality, they worked out well.

[cmcadvanced]

In this world, perhaps you had an epiphany instead?

[StephenBall]

Yes, run more Biotic Labor!!!

@dwindrim

Observe and Destroy already looks slightly win-more (Runner has less than $6 = NBN is doing pretty well…unless it’s Corp has less than $6? HMM) - but what could it be? Surely not just ALL THE TAGS with ‘destroy’, and surely not damage…and there’s already a fair few Resource trashers, so it hopefully isn’t just a better All-Seeing I. Intrigued!

my guess for the text on Observe and Destroy

Only play if the corp has fewer than 6c.

As an additional cost to play this operation, forfeit an agenda (or maybe it’s a double and costs an additional click, but i would guess that the double text would be first? not sure, but i think the additional cost will be quite high).

Give the runner 1 tag.

@MrBrown

CBI raid + system outage is a combo <.>.

so is CBI Raid and Gorman Drip v1

–

also, Damon said his favourite runner was from Flashpoint, but he wasn’t clear on which faction (though i think we can safely rule out Null along with any other Anarch)

he also said it’s been mentioned ‘at least once,’ so here are some possible names from flavour texts that i can think of:

Ele “Smoke” Scovak (seen on Daily Casts / Notoriety / The Source // quoted on The Maker’s Eye / Wall of Static / Datapike)

Fake-ir (quoted on Councilman / Patron)

StatiX (mentioned on Brainstorm – unlikely going to be a runner ID given the flavour text and the card)

g00ru (quoted on many, many cards – i think it’s unlikely we’ll see him on a card though)

fakespeare (quoted on Incubator)

Lez “Rockfist” S. (quoted on Crash Space)

Reeve (quoted on Hunting Grounds)

Sunder (quoted on Corporate Scandal)

John “Animal” McEvoy (quoted on Infiltration)

any that i missed?

[Therad]

Princess Space Kitten.

And I hope we never see g00ru. Some mysticism is good for the game.

[whirrun]

John "Animal " Mc Evoy isn’t a runner, he’s a character from infiltration. Additionally:

Princess Space Kitten (of Memstrips fame)

2xTiger (from the hoppers)

Personally though, unless psk is in Shaper, Smoke seems the most likely…

Latest Damon interview hints at a card that combo’s with Null (void?) in an OP way, that got bumped in power level just prior to approval.

Let the speculation begin!

[quote=“Therad, post:174, topic:7403, full:true”]
Princess Space Kitten.[/quote]he has also said a few times recently that Princess Space Kitten has not even been designed yet, but i also strongly feel that she’d be Anarch, and unless we’re getting 2 in one cycle anyway…

[quote]And I hope we never see g00ru. Some mysticism is good for the game.
[/quote]i agree. i think there was some flavour text that he is now a digital entity or something?
like he could be APEX for all we know

@whirrun

John "Animal " Mc Evoy isn’t a runner, he’s a character from infiltration.

ah, good to know. i’ve only played it once and didn’t really like it lol.
i already mentioned PSK, but as for 2xTiger, i have a feeling s/he isn’t a runner.

the only thing i could think of at first was something that allowed you the retrieve a card that was just discarded from your hand or gain credits or something whenever you discard anything?

but then he said it was super OP, and i’m not sure that seemed too OP really.

[rojazu]

anything that would allow you to retrieve parasites as a trigger would be massively OP

[dr00]

sorry, i meant the card that was discarded being returned to the grip

[rojazu]

The runner I really want to see is Jack Weyland
