(This card is interactive! Click or tap on it!)
Identity: Division. Deck size: 45 • Influence: 15
Whenever you rez a piece of AP or destroyer ice during a run, that ice gets +1 strength and gains “[subroutine] End the run unless the Runner trashes 1 of their installed cards.” after its other subroutines for the remainder of that run.
3 stars
I really want to like this identity. I think the effect is interesting, and making ice stronger is always good, but I feel like Thunderbolt is not proactive enough to beat out the more value-based HB identities. Even in a derez deck, I don’t see why you’d run Thunderbolt over something like Precision Design. Still, I’ll be waiting with bated breath to see the first tournament winning Thunderbolt deck. I want it to succeed.
