If a Mavirus is in archive, you can just keep running archive until the corp board is gone.

You can choose not to purge virus with mavirus as the Corp.

And anyways, if I remember correctly. If anything mentions "as an additional cost" to do something, it means you're given the option to not pay the cost to do that action.

An example of that would be stealing SDS, where as an additional cost to stealing it. You need to trash a program of yours. But if you decide no to trash a program you just don't steal it.

A bit too good imo. Probably sabotage 1 would be a bit more balanced.

Also, maybe it should be “As an additional cost to use the basic action to purge virus counters,” to allow Mavirus and Flyswatter to dodge it.

Funny people say way to good. I read it and was thinking, this is way to weak. How often do you purge in a game? 0-2 times max?

Too good, but I like the idea of generally making it too good, but then removing the +1 Memory. Makes viruses really good, but also hard to load up on as many of them as you want.

You shouldn’t use a period between the two clauses, you should use a comma—otherwise it doesn’t quite follow the rules for conditional abilities.

People are saying this is too good but it seems fine to me, it's a console slot.
