EXCUSE ME, Mass Commercialization? Yes, please, you’re going in my BoN deck.

Looks like Tennin isn’t an ICE Mushin after all! Supposedly the card is out there, but I guess it’s not this one =(

Could Shipment from Tennin bring back SYNC FA? Saves influence and money to FA (over Biotic), just seal up centrals and start scoring. I suppose it may do just that even better in Jinteki (Palana)? But SYNC has great cheap ICE to prevent / disincentivize making successful runs.

whipped up a Palana FA list. Obv which card is the stand in. Plays like classic Polish Tennin – https://netrunnerdb.com/en/deck/view/951557

edit: actually probably a better NA tool in SYNC due to the strength of 4/2s in faction that are otherwise tough to score.

Loki … because the MoGo/Excalibur suite needed more support, eh? -.-

Why not just play it in Tennin? I see Shipment from Tennin as 3 more Trick of Lights, not a replacement for Trick of Light.

Isn’t the reason that deck isn’t anymore around mainly that Aaron (and at the moment, NACH as well) is popular? Was it the inf that stopped it being relevant?

You’re probably right, that should speed up the deck as you don’t have to wait as long for your FA tools.

Good point, I was thinking of Polish SYNC but even that deck usually relied on EOI to close the game.

Seems like a pretty cool pack!

I like this theme of giving crazy but expensive decoders to shaper (2 in the last pack as well if you count dedicated processor-yog). Not sure if it’ll see that much play over inversificator though, but they’re both sweet.

Daredevil seems appropriately good with Faust.

I really like Loki, and Miraju seems pretty insane on either HQ or RnD. I like how it blocks indexing. If you don’t draw, I assume you don’t have to shuffle.

Are there any cool use cases for Bug Out Bag?

Mass commercialisation is obviously nice, and as noted above, shipment from Tennin looks crazy.

Well you can Fall Guy a Bug Out Bag so that it doesn’t get trashed but you draw the cards. Work with that however you will!

Aside from that, Loki is a pretty great little card in Architects of Tomorrow as it is a Bioroid you can’t click through.

Actually, both of the HB cards seem like they are support for Architects.

Faust + Siphon + BOB will be my first experiment. I may try taking the Steve DLR list, moving it to Andy, replacing either Fisk or Drugs with BOB, and fitting in a Rebirth.

Siphon, dump hand to Faust, install BOB with Siphon money being my intended use of BOB

re: Loki, it seems pretty good on non-Code Gates (see: Yog). It’s another piece of NEXT, too.

I think Hopper is strictly better for Geist. 4 cards for 3 credits and far more flexible

Can only trigger once per turn though

yeah, it’ll trigger later though cos it’s still out with all its counters

Of course. I’m not saying it’s not a good combo! But you need to end another turn at zero cards first.

Faust/Severnius are good to end a turn at 0. The real trick would be getting into a server with and not accidentally drawing too many cards through Geist’s card ability with your B&E breakers.
