Finally.... a decent Current for criminals.
Corporate Grant plays on a criminal strength - keeping the corp poor. Because of its trigger, it only truly shines in builder/horizontal decks. However, most criminals (e.g. Gabe, Ken, Los) are aggressive. They get their rig up fast, and run, run, run.
Meet Geist (if you somehow haven't already):
- Geist installs a lot of cards, constantly triggering the ability throughout the game.
- Counters Scarcity of Resources, which has shut down staple cards like Fall Guy, Tech Trader, and Street Peddler for a long time.
- You can use Street Peddler during the corp's turn, triggering Corporate Grant out of turn.
- Slows down Rush and FA decks, letting you build up before they can win.
- Cheap to play.
As a Criminal "main", it makes me proud to finally see a solid Current after several years.
