A balanced version / replacement for Archived Memories. This gets you card draw and brings a card back from archives and makes you a little money. . It is however a double causing you a hit in tempo. One way to fix this (after Threat 3 has been achieved) is with Sudden Commandment. The 2 credits pay for most of the click-refund on commandment. This means you can spend 2 credits, draw 4 cards and add 1 card to your hand from archives for 1 click. You net 3 cards.

This is great to pair with a spin doctor if you're trying to "reach" for certain cards, esp if they would be gaming winning. Pull back 1x Mindscaping and "reach" for your 2nd copy while the runner happened to float 3 tags and be in a kill window. Or grab a Your Digital Life, make a ton of money and spend it on something like Psychographics.

This card is also very well paired with Oppo Research. Refill your hand, pick up the oppo you used last turn and keep piling on tags until the runner submits and just starts floating.

Most decks would rather opt for Spin Doctor or Sprint. This is very much a card for repeating quite specific combos and/or builld arounds.

To me, this appears more to be a replacement of Blue Level Clearance with a built-in Archived Memories as a positive side-effect.You have N cards in hand and <span class="icon icon-click"></span><span class="icon icon-click"></span> later you have N+2 cards in hand and more money.

Messed up the syntax somehow... I meant two cliks later you have two more cards in hand and more money.

What a great card. For 2, you gain 2, draw 2 cards AND get a card from archive, thus giving you 3 cards in hand. As the previous review stated, Your Digital Life is a good target for this.

Even better if you used Sudden Commandment to play it, draw even more card and then play Your Digital Life for even more credits gained.

Other good card to get with this : Seamless Launch, Hedge Fund, Greasing the Palm or even an hidden agenda in archive.

At only 2 influence, this can actually compete with Spin Doctor, if you want more control on your archives. An identity like Jinteki: Restoring Humanity could do a lot with such a card.

Art is ok, but I find it a bit cartoonish. It does fit the name and quote of the card, along with its effect. Good.
