Cheaper to import DLR into Shaper. Then you just need a way to reliable self-tag - Vamp maybe?
Reliable self-tagging? Why, say hello to my main man John Masanori!
Should have thought of that. Neutral too
It's risky and situational, though. You're accelerating the pace of the game, but you're also giving the corp more card draw to deal with that new pace. It's risky enough that I'd like to see the install cost lowered, since you need to not only have (or at least threaten) solid control of the board, but also be able to maintain that control for as long as this card is in play.
It can be used as a guide to when you should be running. Of course you can miss out on some, and you are giving free draws, but this card seems like it can provide some serious information without any effort.
A virtual woman in a red dress . . . nice Matrix reference.
I'd like to experiment with a copy of this in Criminal, using Hostage to get it out.
Might be interesting.
I'm using one in my Ian Sterling connections deck (even though the influence hit is extra painful in that deck). I've been very happy with it; the deck is set up to own HQ, so there is good synergy with this card as it puts a vise on the Corp if an agenda pops up...if the Corp leaves the agenda on R&D I'll run over and get it, but if they take it into HQ I'll probably get it anyway.
It basically allows me to put active pressure on R&D without needing to run. It's not a full on lock, but it is very inexpensive pressure and I've been very satisfied with the results.
If the top card of R&D is an Agenda, the corp will certainly draw it, because a successful R&D run would be a 100% chance to steal the Agenda. If it's in HQ, the chances for it to get stolen are certainly lower. Putting Legwork in your deck will take advantage of this fact and creates a nice synergy.
Seems like this could do well at this point in a Valencia deck with Raymond Flint, Investigative Journalism, and multi-access / reduced Corp hand size.
Valencia likes those things anyway, so this isn't a stretch, and you may not even trigger the IJ and Flint, depending on what the access situation is, but run R&D for the Agenda. The Corp has a few ways out (Jackson, Executive Bootcamp, anything that'll shuffle R&D), but it's good pressure.
The mentioned Iain deck uses multiple HQ interfaces, but yes what I mean by "owning HQ" is reliable multi-access of HQ.
