As usual with this breaker suite, it combos with Inject/Making an Entrance.
Edit: fixed
This is going directly into my Omar deck (finally) to replace the dog. Been waiting for this card to be printed.
Unfortunately, a lot of the costs to break AdorablePython wrote above are not correct:
For an Icebreaker to interact with a piece of ICE, it needs to have matched the strength of the ICE.
For example, let's look at Archer, which has 6 strength and 4 subs.
MKUltra starts at strength 1. So you need to boost it 3 times, for sure. That's 9 credits just to boost.
But the problem is, the additional effect of breaking subroutines, which comes with boosting strength, can only fire once the breaker is at 6 strength or above.
So only the last boost, which pushes the breaker to 7 strength, will break 2 subroutines. Therefore, if you want to break an entire Archer, you need to boost once more, costing a hefty 12 credits.
This is the same for Black Orchestra, but not for Paperclip, as Paperclip is worded differently.
It's an easy thing to miss, and really messes with the efficiency of this piece.
Didn't check all of yours, but right off the bat, this is incorrect. It would take 12c to break an Archer. You can't break subs until you meet the strength, so it's 9c to meet strength and break 2 subs, then 3c more for the last 2 subs.
Thanks. I have fixed the numbers.
