i have to say i have never seen this kinda of game. unless you are playing a
big bully deck i dont see you getting thru most of the challenges out there
with just on troll and gear. plus most trolls will take that first 8 nuyen.
next turn you may get the gear. i not saying it cant be done. but think about
it only thats one challenge sometimes to take out a one runner team and in
alot of cases you will probley face at least one or to challenges. and if you
put that many cards in your deck that you can just drop alot in the the
discard pile just to get more then thats some new style of play to me. most of
the cards in my deck have a reason to be there i dont see just droping. to get
a different card.
