No, but I don't mind the fact that you've spent 20 actions advancing it. Oh, have you met my friend, Femme?
I want this to be good, I really do... unfortunately, I'm pretty sure it's not. Can I spare a click on most turns to pump up an ice? Maybe. Definitely going to test with it.
Now you will feel forced to advance an ICE every turn...
Doesn't take a card slot and actually helps you!
Makes the text flavor even better for a corp deck, lol!
Matrix Analyzer's "advance a card that can be advanced" effect triggers: use the recurring credit from "Because we built it" to pay for the effect: that's clickless, cost-free ICE advance.
Appalling, really: one has to somehow imagine that ice is not a category of card. Poorly done, that.
Is it slow? Yes, quite. But consider the clicks and credits lost when a runner steals a partially advanced agenda. What were gained from those? A click to install, one or four clicks to almost max it out, all gone. Also consider the install costs of the non-advanceable ice one has to layer on thick, because the older ice fails to keep up with the Runner's rig.
Mobile advancement tokens have a 100% return rate, and BWBI frees up your credits for more important things, like rezzing that Hadrian's Wall or Janus, or using your towering stacks to intimidate your foe to break your trace subs rather than face a fistful of tags and the threat of Scorch.
And you still have to advance agendas with BWBI. Sure, you don't gain anything from advancements on stolen agendas, but BWBI isn't safe from that at all.
