I love to take cards that are kinda meh and watch them punch above weight in a certain type of deck. Not necessarily make them good, but make them do more than someone expects from them.

That is the best you can hope for here. First -- against the wrong kind of deck, this does nothing.

You are using Mongoose as your sentry breaker and I'm running Ichi 1.0 so you pay 6 before and after to break all subs. Or you are using Corroder so I'm costing you 1 more per run to break Eli...

And don't even talk about Yog.0 and Viktor 1.0. Ugh.

So mostly it makes runners who didn't plan well suffer -- Cerberus "Lady" H1 against Eli or trusting Au Revoir to be your whole econ engine with no back-up plan for when the outermost ice gets Rezed...

In that sense, call it a meta call. Everyone is using Lady lately with no back-up? Give Eli some teeth.

Another use for this is when the runner relies on clicking through your ICE and you want to add subs to increase the click tax. Particularly by adding a 3rd sub to a 2.0 bioroid or a 4th to the one and only 3.0 to make sure the runner can't break it completely with only 3 clicks left. —
Its a fun add-on for Heimdall 2.0, a savy runner that clicks through him will take 2 brain damage instead of 1, but that scenari still kind of requires a really desperate runner. —
I think it's also fun to add to 1.0 Bioroids. If Najja 1.0 has a 3rd sub, now they either have to spend all their remaining clicks to go through it, or take the brain damage to go through it. 3 clicks is no joke for a tempo shift, even better if combined with Heinlein Grid or baiting a run with NGO Front. —
