The Collective! It's already more useful than the Professor.
And i like the confident smile on a corp player, when my deck is thicker than theirs. ;)

The thing with The Collective is... it doesn't matter whether you're predictable or not, because you can just brute-force through anything (at least right now).

Taking three credits with them is the equivalent of drawing and playing an Easy Mark. Things only get more insane once you leave the default actions and start considering stuff like PC, MO and other "repeatable" actions.

Incidentally, The Collective is pretty close to a perfect identity for a Replicator deck :D

Laramy is much less of a brute-force approach - he's the smooth criminal (zing). The more I think about it, the more I want Laramy to win. He's more challenging and interesting trying to make work from a deckbuilding perspective, will have a much higher skill-cap in actual play, and is healthier for the game overall.

I prefere the flavor of a the Collective.
Gamewise I also think collective should be printed because they might not enable the most crazy new deck of all but the decks you build with them will be strong enough to play.
Most important: I don't want to hear "just keep all the cards but switch ID to Gabe and you will do much better" cause that will happen as soon as most Laramy's need to slow down their game to get the income Gabe got for free.

Few ID's are able to challenge the core set ones (Andromeda, Chaos Theory and no corp comes to mind),.I'm not saying the other ones are useless but just a little bit to weak and so is Laramy -> vote for the strong one ;)

I also love the idea for the Collective to replicating everything three times,it makes so much sense!

The Collective = same play style, just much more efficient (boring!)
Laramy Fisk = different play style, more interesting deck building options

Vote for Fisk, pleeeeeeeease!! :)
