Imagine what the Trolls would do? (grin)

That would be a problem with any race-specific deck, but even that is a
random event, no more bothersome that Nets or that. Now if your
opponents are doing a Lord Torgo or Humanis Policlub Member on you,
that is another story.

The only trouble with race-specific decks is including enough Gear to
cover all the various Runner types. I have a hard enough time limiting
my Gear in a normal deck.
