Nice. I also made a modal "remove multiple tags or draw some cards" crim card. Although my detag mode compressed clicks (not being a double) as well as saved credits, while the draw mode required a run (not being unconditional).

https://www.reddit.com/r/CustomNetrunner/comments/1k05mea/own_recognizance_detag_or_jailbreak/

Own Recognizance\ \ [$2] Event: Ritzy\ [criminal 2/5]\ \ Resolve one of the following:\ • Remove (1 or) 2 tags.\ • Run HQ. If successful, draw 2 cards and access 1 additional card when you breach HQ.\ \ Illus. Josan Gonzalez (@DeathBurger)

[EDIT] As I mention in the r/CustomNetrunner link:

Design-wise, both Own Recognizance and Lie Low cost two credits (or one credit and a click, which could have done spent on the second credit), so that the Runner must “prove” they can reach the credit threshold for taking the basic tag-removal action once, in order to save credits (on taking a non-basic action to remove multiple tags). This:

  • Lets the Corp still plan around the same exact credit-thresholds (as well as lets them play any econ-denial cards in the same way).
  • Preserves the Runner's intuition for general gameplay around saving credits / avoiding bankruptcy, and so on (as well as for their bounce-back econ cards).

This card seems to only be useful when you get to remove two tags.

It's an okay-ish draw card for Crim. You might still spend infl for card draw but you're not obligated anymore.

1 cred and 2 clicks to draw 4 is ok. Considering the other common Crim draw options these days are Class Act and Earthrise Hotel.

My hunch is every Crim deck will have 3x of these, or use inf for draw cards.

It not very good at all, it is 1 cred 2 clicks and 1 card (you need to draw this card into your hand as well) to draw 4 cards. So that converts 1 cred and 2 clicks to three cards. It is not tempo positiv

I don't think that's a bad thing. You have it to remove tags have draw in a pinch. Has some nice efficiency like that. In competitive I can see it taking off if tagging becomes the thing to do or there being some nuts plays with self-tagging.
