Actually you could keep Lord Torgo around for at least four turns and
hope that you draw a LotI before then.

My Vitas III rewrite

Vitas III
Cost: 0
Card Type: Special
Text: Unique. Play on any runner. Add a disease token to runner during
the runners owners upkeep. Each upkeep Vitas III does 2AP damage
for each disease token on the runner. If the runner is trashed
then the runners owner may choose a new target for Vitas III.
Trash targeted runner to select new target for Vitas III.
Frag targeted runner to frag Vitas III.

Good suggestions, and I forgot to add that it is Unique.
