Welcome to Reviewing the Little Boot Icon, an unfortunately named series of reviews for Reboot-modified cards. Today's review: News Hound, one of 2 ice to receive nerfs in Reboot.

  • Changes: Rez cost 2<3.

  • Pros: Absolutely amazing numbers if there is a current. It's like Eli 1.0 but an unclickable NBN sentry. Of course, the Runner can just eat the tag, but that's not a good idea unless you don't have any good resources and you're sure that the Corp isn't Kill Sol.

  • Cons: Bad outside of New Angeles Sol: Your News. Weak to 4tman.

8/10 3x in every Sol deck.
