Minotaur

Card text

Playable in Go Solo

Play If you have more ☆ (Street Cred) than a Rival, defeat a rival Unit with power 5 or less.

How this card works

Minotaur is a 7-cost, 9-power machine that wins nearly every fight but steals just one Gig - it's one point short of a second. Its Play effect is conditional: if you have more Street Cred than a Rival, defeat one of their Units with power 5 or less.

Saburo Arasaka: Stubborn Patriarch supplies the missing point, since Minotaur is an ARASAKA Unit and has 10 power while attacking - two Gigs per hit. Yorinobu Arasaka: Embracing Destruction draws a card the first time an ARASAKA Unit attacks each turn, but makes you discard 1 if you have less than 20 Street Cred.

Officially, you can play it without the Street Cred lead; the effect just does nothing. When the condition is met, the defeat is mandatory, even if you'd rather spare the target. Street Cred is the sum of your Gig values, and an empty Gig area means Null, not 0.
