artwork's amazing!
a good surprise ice for runners who just rely on links to break Sentry ices...
A nasty and painful face check early too. Imagine hitting that on a first turn HQ run. Ouch!

This is a great early game ice for any flatline deck. Really punishes early game scouting. And if you rezzed it early it's always going to be relevant: Mimic, Femme and Atman still take 2 to break and Ninja takes 5. Of course, they'll also have a BP to work with, but seems like a pretty good trade-off if you ask me.

They'll have the BP on future runs, but crucially NOT the run when you rezzed it. That can make the difference sometimes.
It does provide some alternate ice to those that are bypassed by spending clicks. It can be frustrating seeing the runner choose which ones to break and which ones to bypass based on their available pool of ice breakers. Adding a couple pieces of ice like this to the mix that aren't as powerful in strength but get the job done are a nice touch. And...a sentry that ends the run. Sounds good to me!

For taking a bad pub I expect the power level of a Checkpoint or Shinobi. Fenris will hit maybe once for a single brain damage, then the runner will break it with Mimic for 2 credits, while having a free credit every run.

 

Without the bad pub this would be a good piece of ICE.
