Turtle Backs Off

"See the TURTLE of enormous girth!"

Box-E is a weird choice, I admit. It's in here

  1. to hold an SMC when you're setting up
  2. to hold a Femme if you need it (target Hortum/Turing, break Swordsman)
  3. for Dean Lister and holding on to cards you don't need just yet
  4. because Reflection is really, really tedious to do in person

Adjust the influence from Salsette Slums and Feedback Filter to taste. Sacrificial Construct could be nice, and Deuces Wild lets you get 3 credits, then expose a card and run, so you can expose a card and get 3 credits.

Why not Caldera instead of Feedback Filter? Save an influence.

You actually don't need a Feedback Filter now that Caldera is out. Also, Logos might be a better option since it gives a reduced Box-E effect while also giving you a great ability when the corp scores. That could allow you to go down to one Salsette Slums and include three Employee Strike's. I like the deck idea. It looks like some janky fun.

Oh yeah, Caldera is a thing. I guess as a mostly-Shaper player, I wanted to ignore the fact that they gave another faction a new card that does basically the same thing as one of "ours". >_>

As far as consoles go, 2 MU is actually kind of the more important aspect. Daredevil could actually be pretty good, if you're willing to give up some tech influence.
