Secondhand Bombus

How this card works

Bombus is a 2-Eddie wall. With 0 power it never steals a Gig or wins a fight; you play it for Blocker. When a rival Unit attacks, you spend Bombus to redirect the attack to it, which turns a steal into a fight the attacker can't use to take your Gigs.

Rulings work in your favour: you can block the turn Bombus is played, you can block attacks aimed at your Gig area or at another Unit, and a second Blocker can take over an attack that was already redirected. A ready Unit that is itself being attacked can't use its own Blocker, though.

Make the spend pay off. Zetatech Faceplate adds 2 power and lets you adjust a Gig by up to 1 whenever the wearer is spent, drawing a card if you control 3 or more Gigs with different values. Goro Takemura: Vengeful Bodyguard lets you discard 1 and draw 1 each time a friendly Unit uses Blocker.
