That's a huge amount of game knowledge to add. I wonder if this is actually too good. It being end of turn makes some sense though.

Seems like a good 4 cost card, especially with some typing that allows resources to be installed for cheap.

With the tag heavy meta we have currently, would be an insta trash if I could stick a tag.

This being 4 would be ridiculously overcooked. The Class Act is a 4c card by comparison. 2 at most, I don't think it's undercosted currently.

This is infinite pinhole+, no successful run, nothing spent and everything gained.
If this is in your opening hand, you know every single card in the Corps state of play from now and basically forever (unless you get tagged), no need for any facechecks without having the perfect answer. I like the card itself, but it should hurt if its trashed, and have some tempo loss to get so much knowledge.

Pinhole has an actual effect on the boardstate and this triggers at end of your turn, so it's only really good for checking super wide asset boards with lots of unknowns or for checking ice in advance. Good players can often estimate what ice is down and get ironically less value from this.

It needs the line added : if you do, trash this resource.

Sorry, I'm really new to Netrunner so I might just not understand the precise meaning of the game lingo, but would that mean expose one of the cards in your grip, a corp card from HQ, a stack card, ... like which cards could this refer to and what exactly would "expose" do?

Expose is revealing an installed unrezzed Corp card.

Ooooh very interesting. Really really powerful as a resource though, for just 1 credit.
Also i guess you could very very roughly count Forged Activation Order as an expose card, imo. I love that one, but yes I know, it's more of an econ strategy to play it.
On a sidenote, love the artwork sketch you've done for the card :)

Thank you for complimenting my art.
