Reviews

Welcome to Reviewing the Little Boot Icon, an unfortunately named series of reviews for Reboot-modified cards. Today's review: Swarm, an illicit ice Sizzler: Igniting the Discourse doesn't want.

  • Changes: Rez cost 8>3. 8 was a total rip-off.

  • Pros: Cheap to rez, 5 strength annoys Mimic decks. Can get lots and lots of s. If you load this up out of Weyland Consortium: Because We Built It you should be able to trash something unless the Runner has lots of cash. Really good with Commercialization.

  • Cons: Requires an advancement token to have any s at all. Unless you get a lot of s the Runner will pay the 3 to keep their programs. Gives a bad publicity, making runs cheaper across the board. Vulnerable to D4v1d and e3 Feedback Implants, fortunately no one plays those cards together. Switchblade makes this card sad, against it you should only place a single token. Parasite can eat all your hard work.

6/10 Coolest use of a lot of advancement tokens besides a fully loaded Woodcutter.
