Yes, we need more direct damage and/or ways to remove runners once
they are in play. Here's one that I came up with (it's not too
original for those of you that have played MTG, but it could still be
useful):

Retirement
Type: Special
Cost: 2
Notes: Target runner and all gear is trashed. The controller of the
runner gets Y equal to the deployment cost of the runner.

Could be used either on the opponents runners, or your own when you're
a bit short on cash.

Maybe a bit cheap for what it does, especially in a mage based deck.
How about a cost of 3+X where X is the number of mages that are turned.

Personally I would make it 50/50 base chance (1-3 trash). That's just
me. I agree that it would be necessary to make this unique.

Just my $0.04 (inflation you know)
