At $1 this is priced like a Spoilers or Harvester rather than a major character ID in a non-ID slot. Looking at the virus pool right now, a $1 price feels like probably a misread on how many cards will be sabotaged and/or how much a sabotage is worth. I'd guess that $1 Augustina will easily produce 50-75% as many pseudo-accesses as a $6 Maw. Maybe 100%+, Augustina gets installed a few turns faster and can trigger on the Corp's turn with cards like Gachopon. I hope you love those Maw MU.
Yeah, it's literally Noise but for 1c. Seems too strong right now.
— electricprincessOn the plus side, Augustina only fires once per turn, and runner recursion is weaker now than it used to be.
— superheronationMaw seems like a poor comparison to me - a large part of the value of Maw triggers comes from hand disruption, which Avgustina doesn't do at all unless the corp lets her (and even then, random discards are so much better).
— 34Witches"Noise but for 1c?" I gotta say, I feel like the difference in power between "Once per turn the corp discards a card and gets a choice of a worthless HQ card or a random card from RnD" and "Force the corp to mill 1 off RnD as often as you like, and are able" is huge. Not to say that this card might not be overtuned, but Noise for 1c this ain't.

I agree, I feel like 3<span class="icon icon-credit"></span>s would be more reasonable for her ability.
