Corporate Shuffle works against indexing after the damage has been done most likely, while Jackson actually destroys indexing.
I think if your playing Corporate Shuffle it has to be in addition to Jackson.
My question is, in what strategies/decks is it worth the influence/deck slot and how many are people thinking of playing.
it’s for fast advance when you need agendas and are getting locked, I think most nbn decks will have room for 1
What’s the timing for Fall Guy? I don’t see his timing working for protecting a key resource for a turn.
What do you mean about the timing? I mean, if you end your turn tagged they just have to trash it twice, but it could protect kati or pro con from a san-saned breaking news. A bit narrow, but I can see potential for it in decks that rely on resources- especially pro con and personal workshop- or tri-maf contact, come to think of it. Not sure its worth the card slot.
Let’s say the corp starts its turn and the runner is tagged.
Scenario A: The runner must immediately trash Fall Guy and designate a resource. It may not be trashed for the entirety of the corp’s turn.
Scenario B: The corp pays 2c and designates a resource to trash. The runner then uses Fall Guy.
Fall Guy has a very nice niche in Anarch if it works via Scenario A.
He’d make cards like Activist Support and Tallie Perrault more playable.
He may lead to a resurgence of Personal Workshop Noise, meaning you’ll be able to get a decent drawing engine going (Wyldside).
It’d help a dedicated DLR/Siphon/Vamp deck get set up more easily.
It’s a prevent effect… gotta be Scenario B.
Yeah, I’m a huge derp.
Least it works great in dedicated DLR/Vamp decks.
It also works to let you keep the source and NACH in play longer.
I imagine it will be even more useful when Honor and Profit drops. It seems like there are a lot of resources in that.
