Stabintheface 0 Posted September 17, 2012 Hey Guys If Data Sucker has 2 counters on it, and the runner encounters a piece of ice, does it "Cost" those two counters to lower the ICEs power, or do the counters stay on Data Sucker until the Corp purges counters?

Scud-O 1 Posted September 17, 2012 The wording on Datasucker is… Hosted virus counter: Rezzed piece of ice currently being encounters has -1 strength until the end of the encounter. The construction is Cost: Effect according to the rules, so you must spend the counters in order to lower the ice's strength. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
byronczimmer 1 Posted September 17, 2012 Which means the counter must be 'spent' to enact the effect. Otherwise the card would read:For each hosted counter on datasucker, every ice encountered has -1 strength. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stabintheface 0 Posted September 18, 2012 Of course! Thanks guys, that makes a lot more sense. Otherwise 2 Data Suckers in play would basicly mean ALL ICE had 0 Power Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
