Given that Silvio Barbarigo is currently uncounterable, I tried killing him off with Sudden Exhaustion -> Tactical Upheaval, and it actually worked. I know that TU didn't kill him before, so that seems like a bug to me.
I don't know if this can be done to other agents with Safe, nor do I know if it's possible to kill him using other cards to get his /4 to /0.
Of course, please feel free to edit the title of my thread as needed when new information comes to light.

This is now by design.

Oh? So any zero powered safe agents that get tactical upheavaled will - and is supposed to - be neutralized?

Interesting change... so will this affect Altair, Learned as well (I mean will Altair, Learned go to the Archive if you do a TU / Sudden Exhaust on him)? I'm guessing this is not the case so it looks like Silvio the "Always Safe" agent is actually a lot less appealing now than Altair, Learned. It seems unfair to me, though the always safe agent can be killed by the TU / Sudden Exhaust combo while Altair, Learned will just go back to your hand if you consider the cost to deploy those 2 agents (7 for Silvio vs. 3 for Altair, Learned). I'm not sure that I like that... |

Nice! I bloody hate Silvio, so I'll be more than happy to repeatedly kill him off with this combo. Oh, and the obligatory follow-up question: is it now by design that we can't counter Silvio? |

They already said we should be able to counter him. It is fixed next patch.

So it is intendend that he should be counterable AND can be killed by the SE/TU combo? Wow, I should sell all copies of him asap.
I don't like this at all.

I like it. Safe is much more common now and it makes sense that if your power is 0 you die and not get more powerful.
But it is 2 major nerfs for silvio.

I think it's a fair change given that there are a lot of safe going around, and I think it gives tactical a different life (Ive all but completely stopped playing with it). I do think the loss of the 0/4 safe to 4/4 insta combo is a bit of a shame though  |
