Worst case scenario, this gets immediately parasited and it's the sentry equivalent of an Ice Wall or Quandary. 2 credits really isn't that bad, and you end up breaking even with the runner which is pretty good for a piece of ICE anyway.

Best case, this could have a ludicrous amount of subs that makes breaking it repeatedly a massive tax. For example, Gagarin or Industrial Genomics. You don't want to access/trash all their assets, but not doing so is going to make them money and make this a massive obstacle.

You could click for credits for five-hundred years and not have enough to pay all my subs.

I see, time to go back to switchblade Andy —
Or just use Sunny's breaker and giggle to yourself. —
Surely the worst case scenario is having no rezzed assets? But I'm looking at it as a tax; if I have just two rezzed assets, there is no breaker that breaks it for less than its rez cost, except Faerie. It's like an ETR version of Pup —
switchblade? —
Paricia

Paricia

Today we're going to take a look at this corp's board. Nothing has birds on it, but you know what we're going to do?

We're going to put birds on things! Spruce it up, make it pretty.

What a sad little PAD Campaign. I know, I'll put a bird on it!

Did you see this PAD before? I didn't. Now there's a bird! It's flying, it's free! And the pad is gone for way cheaper.

False Lead

False Lead

This card does not get enough love. Let's talk about just a few of the wonderful things forfeiting a Falsie can do for you:

  • Got bioroids? Don't want them to get click/e3'd through? False Lead says you're going to slam headfirst into that Heimdall.

  • The runner found a Snare? Hold that tag and 3 damage in yo chest, son.

  • Argus LOVES this card. Make your damage and tags stick. If you slam out a Falsie early you can scorch them on your terms. Whenever. You. Want.

  • In the same vein as Argus, any damage-y Jinteki deck likes this a lot. It also synergizes stupidly well with Mushin, which is in faction, amazing, and probably already in your deck.

  • Speaking of Jinteki, what's worse than losing clicks and piles of money to PSI games? Having your other clicks just straight up taken away. No PSI game. Just poof, gone, I'm scoring a Nisei now thanks.

  • Any time you just want to be a massive jerk. Taking half of the runner's turn away is baller.

It's hard to be a disposable 3/1 agenda in the game of Netrunner, but False Lead more than pulls its weight.

Basically any strategy that comes with the caveat "of course, this only works if they choose to run on their last click" becomes a hell of a lot more reliable with False Lead sitting in your score area. —
This could simply be used to chunk an especially important turn for the runner. Use it after their first click to leave them one left. Are they now going to run last click vs your argus? They can't clear the tag (get scorched), and if they steal that agenda you'll hit them with punitive for total 4-5 damage. If they back off, you score the 2-3 point agenda, meaning you essentially forfited False Lead to "upgrade" it into a bigger agenda. —
I...think I just realized that this doesn't work on the Runner's third click to deny them their fourth one. Since they're unable to lose two clicks, nothing happens. That means you can defend against a lot of it by running third click? —
New Angeles Sol + Victoria Jenkins + Enhanced Login Protocol + Forfeited False Lead = temporary lockout —

Allele Repression

Allele Repression

This is a card that can let you pick up three used Snares.

Let me emphasize for people in the cheap seats: you can Mushin this out and use it next turn to yank three Snares out of your bin.

Best card.

831
You can even do it, after they accepts a successful run on HQ. Yikes! —
You could, but not during the turn after Mushin (just to clarify) in case anyone makes that mistake. This card could be fun in trap-centric Tennin decks, too. —
LLDS Processor

LLDS Processor

You're about to see a lot more of this card. Which is to say you might actually see it played.

The Underway contains Geist and Shiv, which completes the home invasion suite. These cards synergize so well with LLDS Processor it's crazy. Being able to toss a breaker down and get one, two, or even three extra strength is bonkers, they're only one influence apiece, and they're cheap. Clone Chip means you can do this ridiculous crap whenever you want.

Prepare to pour an entire can of Diesel into your rig.
