-1 gingerbread -1 net celeb -1 cybersolutions -1 professional contacts but thats still 46. Your draw is super light, so 45 cards is crucial to finding what you need. Seriously though, gingerbread is bad.

@x3r0h0ur you know gingerbread is a card i've always wanted to try since it came out but never have.

It can hit quite abit but generally its another breaker that's not really needed with a rig up it be worth a go if you could bypass like Femme but you have to match str to do so.

Id drop sharpshooter you have faerie which is essentially the same thing but can hit all sentry's, I personally would also drop crescentus and grappling hook.

Thank you very much for your input. I would like to test gingerbread, even when it is bad. I like the concept, so it would be nice to test. And Crescentus and grappling hook are both very important programs. Crescentus can be used to save a lot of money and grappling hook is one of my safeguards.

I've had Gingerbread used against me, and honestly it wasn't great. This was an NBN:MN deck that was all about tags and traces, literally every piece of ice I had drawn and played had a trace component and was vulnerable to Gingerbread.

It wasn't a bad breaker - it certainly cut through all my ice quite nicely. The problem is that it was no better than any of the "standard" breakers you'll see - It breaks a Viper for the same as a Gordian, breaks a Caduceus for the same as Femme Fatale. Many other Tracer ice it breaks for a single credit better than Corroder. It's better against a lot of the NBN ice but those are ice that rarely see play.

Which means if you take it, the only advantage is that if they are running lots of tracer ice the single install gives you a psudo Gordian/Garrotte/Corroder, but only on niche ice. The best it ever does is the same as the breakers you'll have to run and install anyway... If it didn't cripple a deck when it was applicable on 100% of the ice is it really worth the slot (nevermind the influence out of Professor)?
