Baz is giving “Nero × Los × Az”.

For example, you can reactively install a Boomerang or Flip Switch when facechecking, to break 2 or jack out (or a Lucky Charm, if they print one without an HQ-Succeeded-gate, like Devil Charm). But you can also clicklessly install any hardware/resource, like Hermes or The Class Act, just to get value (even if irrelevant to the current encounter). CF. Masterwork (v37) (Whenever a run begins, you may install 1 piece of hardware from your grip …).

While the flavor (artwork/subtype/etc) is Gabe (a confident, handsome gentlemen), the gameplay should be more Ari (“Blue Shaper”) or Az (“Green Crim”): Runs must be initiated (modulo your FAO effects, or their Tucanas), but need not be successful.

Design-wise, there's a balance:

• Whenever the Corp rezzes a piece of ice, … means you need to interact, but (unlike Zahya) you don't need to succeed. So he supports “On-End” (vs. “On-Success”/“On-Breach”) run-events, like Bravado; or even clickless-runs, like Alarm Clock.

• Install 1 hardware or resource { during a run } is a large class, which includes both interaction and non-interaction. CF. how Ari’s Install 1 program can slap down either a Botulus or a Coalescence.

His condition synergizes with Crim’s derez effects, triggering off Window of Opportunity or the new Maglectric Rapid, and triggering alongside Saci. This may compensate for Baz’s trigger-ceiling (the Corp only has so much ICE in deck, and will only install/rez so many). Or this may be unnecessary (most Corps will sleeve up enough ICE, and if they aren't rezzing, then you'll be breaching their servers).

NB. His trigger is a Whenener …(!), not a The first time each turn …. However, your hand size is only so large, and your decks' non-program/non-event count is only so high. So you need card-flow to refill the grip.

And he punishes ice-rezzing by helping the Runner (like Los), rather than hurting the Corp (like Reina).

PS. This is my second-favorite spoiled Runner ID (before playing with any).

This looks like it would have great synergy with Forged Activation Orders.

I am a bit disappointed they have left out an obvious bit of errata by not specifying if you have to pay for costs for the installation. I would assume yes, considering the trigger, the identity would be completely broken otherwise, but it should have been picked up during playtesting.
