Ok, enough discussion has recently happened in #general that I felt a Netrunner thread wouldn't be completely barren.
As a reminder, the Netrunner rank exists. You can grab it by using /rank Netrunner in #bot-stuff

And a few resource links (for I am a River Unto My People):
The Semi-Official Discord: https://discord.gg/glc

Enjoy!
(PS: If there are more resource links people would like added, please let me know and I can slap them in!)

ah! I thought there was a thread, but I couldn't find it in the Forum list.

#

Of course it was just an archived thread

pastel nova
#

that and a few of us just kept forgetting to use threads and do it in #card-gaming in general

shrewd sequoia
#

I think this will be the one going forward?

dapper furnace
#

Makes the most sense to me

shrewd sequoia
#

Anyone up for a game or two?

I need a proper demo first

dapper furnace
#

@tacit swift would you be up for a demo in like 20 minutes or so? Need to get myself something to eat, then I'm free for 2.5 hours or so

tacit swift
#

#

thank you

Sounds good

Would you like me to drop you a ping when I get free tomorrow?

netrunner? in my pilotnet? it's more likely than you think!

#

...currently trying to find a runner and corp I like in standard. Feeling some kind of shaper for runner, but no idea what's good in corp these days

kinda want a killy deck

A public decklist by Zarbba.

User description:

#Throw Another Deer on the Barbie!

I've never really published a deck before and I have no idea what I am doing with markdown but I actually think I have something here so here goes nothing...
Over my long Netrunner career I don't think I've ever felt like I've made a deck that was truely goo...

#

Been enjoying this deck recently

keen saffron
#

...but what do you do once they ice R&D and archives?

shrewd sequoia
#

There is Beatriz for that, run HQ but access R&D. Hopefully you get 6+ runs on R&D with Mind's eye out to access the last points

#

It's not a perfect deck

keen saffron
#

Feels like maybe could build something like this with Cataloguer?

shrewd sequoia
#

Maybe, I grabbed this of DB as I suck at brewing

keen saffron
#

I have been enjoying BIG KIT being a thing

shrewd sequoia
#

Nyashia and Akiko's psigame get's you very deep

dapper furnace
shrewd sequoia
#

A friend plays Arissana and it is fun to play

dapper furnace
#

She's really good

#

She's not shaper, but Hoshiko Shiro plays sorta like a green deck, if you're playing a companion deck

keen saffron
#

yeah shaper feels better than it has in a while

#

Arisanna is great

#

also various kits and lats

#

no, corp is where I dunno

dapper furnace
#

Have you played much with Harmonic ICE?

#

Oh, wait, killy deck

#

there's a few options for that, imo:

shrewd sequoia
#

Jinteki: Personal Evolution hurts a bunch

dapper furnace
#

I really like Near-Earth Hub. You can toss out a TON of remotes, stuffing them with traps and rapid-fire abilities, overwhelming the runner's ability to cope and then hitting them either with death by tags or a Clearinghouse

#

PE is the classic "death by 1,000 cuts" build

#

I find it deeply uninteresting to play against, because it's just "check if I have cards in hand, if yes, run" and struggles to get a good econ up against any competent runner and doesn't have a lot of space for side-trickery

#

But that's a me-philosophy

#

NBN: Reality Plus is my current KILL deck. It uses Clearing House, B-1001, End of the Line, and a few other tricks to turn tags into denial or kill potential, forcing the runner to always be clearing tags as fast as possible.

#

(Clearing House requires no tags, but it's still kill potential)

#

Earth Station is also good for a glacier deck and then you can just jam Clearing House behind the giant pile of ice and then just merc the runner

dapper furnace
#

<@&1005615810536022028> anybody up for a game?

pastel nova
#

dang, too close to bed time for me

shrewd sequoia

Sadly on me way to work

#

If you crosspost in card gaming you may get more eyes on you too

dapper furnace
#

<@&1005615810536022028> on for about 6 hours, if anyone is about/interested in a game in that time

fast escarp
#

@mental panther ?

shrewd sequoia
dapper furnace
#

Oh, very much yes :)

#

Do you have a preffered format?

shrewd sequoia
#

All the decks I kinda know how to play are standard so

dapper furnace
#

vc?

shrewd sequoia
#

Sure

mighty shuttle
shrewd sequoia
#

F**k need to find a new, safe, agenda for my NBN deck

mighty shuttle
#

the closest 1 to 1 replacement is prooooobably Degree Mill, but there's a definite gap there

shrewd sequoia
#

Ye

#

Talked a bit with a local friend who plays which boiled down to just rebuild the deck D:

mighty shuttle
#

yeah that's the nature of banlist updates often, esp w agendas

pastel nova
#

i do wonder if it's possible to have the news subscription in #card-gaming channel be rerouted here

#

although i guess it being in a channel means more eyes

shrewd sequoia
#

<@&1005615810536022028> ANyone wanna play a game or two?

pastel nova
#

ok meant to do this earlier but kept slipping my mind

#

<@&1005615810536022028> do we wanna do an in-house async tournament as suggested in #card-gaming message ?

#

i've been in a good few async tourneys in one of the netrunner servers myself that i'm curious if i can just copy their homework

#

also if enough ppl with this role are down, we can probably advertize it outside the thread in both tabletop and card gaming i'd imagine

mighty shuttle
#

Ooooh I'd be down for an async tournament

#

Just as a league or as an actual tourney?

shrewd sequoia
#

Sounds interesting

pastel nova
#

didn't think too far but probably just as a league so as to keep the stakes low, helps to accomodate the different levels of familiarity in players we have here (see: me having like 1 game in standard format so far)

mighty shuttle
#

Yeah that makes sense

#

I'd definitely be down to help and/or play, though the actual setting up and sorting pairings is pretty simple iirc

dapper furnace
#

I'd be down

frozen obsidian
#

I'd be down as well

pale night
#

Cant promise ill be able to play....but would love to throw some cool alt arts at yall

pastel nova
#

damn

#

so i saw Build to Blast from Metropol's latest match analysis vid, playing eku right now

#

game 1 ended with turn 2 public trail end of the line kill

pastel nova
#

game 2 ended with regular agenda scoring by turn 12

#

mostly by shutting eku out of servers

dapper furnace
#

dang

shrewd sequoia
#

Got bad economy 2nd game

pastel nova
#

won... at what cos... dies

mental panther
#

hmmm

shrewd sequoia
#

It was Ken Tenma VS Issuaq

shrewd sequoia
#

The Swedish Netrunner discord has just started a league and I signed up for it

#

So pressure is on to find a Corp deck that I enjoy

#

Tho the league ain't deck locked

frozen obsidian
shrewd sequoia
#

FOund an almost Iceless Thule that looks interesting

shrewd sequoia
#

First game of league: I get a bye

fast escarp

shrewd sequoia
#

First 8h of first pairing I was in the lead

#

As of now, I am shared first, split in 3

#

Next pairing is on Wednesday

grand sedge
#

i love netrunner i think it's one of my two favorite tcgs of all time

shrewd sequoia
#

Technically not a TCG

#

As there is no trading or randomized packaging

grand sedge
#

well card game

shrewd sequoia
#

3rd round of Netrunner league ends in a corp split with me getting to go Public Trail into End of the Line when OP passes turn with 0credits and 3 cards in hand

#

So got 9 points having lost big round 2

dapper furnace
#

@idle crypt I have begun the conversion of a new victim player!

mighty shuttle
#

<@&1005615810536022028> anyone want a game in 5-10 minutes once I've eaten?

Sadly out and about

Another Corp split for me in the league

#

Thule iceless EotL strikes again

dapper furnace
#

I understand why EotL ICEless Thule is popular. I hate seeing it.

shrewd sequoia
#

It's the first wide remote deck that has clicked for me post Bellona ban

grand sedge
#

EotL killed me so many times while playing esa lol

dapper furnace
#

Datasucker? I hardly know 'er!

shrewd sequoia
#

<@&1005615810536022028> ANyone up for a game or two?

shrewd sequoia
#

How do ya'll counter asset spam lists?

mighty shuttle
#

A mix of tech cards (Paricia, Miss Bones, Wheels, Imp) and learning what to target - it often isn't feasible to trash everything they play so you have to work out what is key to trash in the matchup on that given board state, sometimes you can let them have basically infinite money because money by itself isn't a win. Sometimes, that also just means setting up to hammer centrals and win ignoring the board. Sometimes, it can even mean getting tech down early and keeping them from getting a critical mass of assets to really take off (but that's a hard balance, I still wouldn't trash everything just because you often can't afford to without committing too much of your clicks and resources to do anything else)

shrewd sequoia
#

Post game my most recent opponent asked for tips on how to face asset spam and I kinda mentally went "I don't heckin know"

pastel nova
#

Crim player here: asset spam doesn't stop me from running central

mighty shuttle
#

True and wise

shrewd sequoia
#

I got Public Trail + EotL off before he could hit his 7th point. He did 3 conduit runs on R&D and got like 5 cards and the closest he got was a Ikawah Project but he only had a single credit to his name when he got that deep

mighty shuttle
#

Oh if you're on EotL/kill asset spam the other thing is to respect the threat - don't go for the hail mary until you have to, and before then keep cards in hand and cash up (knowing what decks you need to respect that against is harder because it's not Hard Hitting News + Boom era anymore but in general staying on high cards and cash ifable isn't bad regardless of matchup)

#

Unless this is just a league update

shrewd sequoia
#

This is from my latest games of the League, another corp split with my almost iceless Thule asset spam

shrewd sequoia
#

Going to an event this Friday, should I bring Mercury, Akiko or Esa as my runner?

#

Corp will be iceless* Thule asset/install spam

mighty shuttle
#

(biased bc I've done very well with it and my partner made the original girls deck)

shrewd sequoia
#

I've been meaning if you were the same AceEmpress as mentioned in the write up of Girls. Sadly it's not a Girls derivative, but Nokotan BBQ

#

It is my most played deck tho

mighty shuttle
shrewd sequoia
#

Ye

mighty shuttle
#

Hell yeah

shrewd sequoia
#

Birb and Croc, Vial and Boomerang

#

Mercury is a bypass and dig deep deck, and Esa is Bankhar + Nekobot as breakers'

mighty shuttle
#

Neko + martial arts or just neko?

#

I think they're not likely to be that different in terms of I don't think any of them are super favoured/disfavoured (though I'm bad at meta reads) - Akiko is maybe best positioned vs Aginf style glacier because you can attack a range of servers, have unexpected bypass, and they'll expect girls (which could also be a downside) - Merc definitely has an worse time in that matchup imo but is probably otherwise not too dissimilar

#

Personally I'd just say go with what you enjoy playing the most

#

But if I had to pick at gunpoint I'd say Akiko over Mercury, and Ésa (but I find it much harder to evaluate Ésa having never played xyr)

shrewd sequoia
#

Bergemot and Laamb

mighty shuttle
#

Then I think the Ésa list is probably very solid if you're looking for the most "meta"/proven pick

shrewd sequoia
#

Esa is a straight rip of Tuno's ACC24 list

mighty shuttle
shrewd sequoia
#

It's been very fun to pilot

#

Might look into makin' a hybrid of the ACC and EMEA lists

shrewd sequoia
#

Still unsure of which runner to bring so I'll just bring all of them

shrewd sequoia
#

So, got a game in with Akiko which I won.Tho I got real unlucky in most of my psi-games and many of my 3 cars accesses showed no agendas

#

My Esa game ended with me having 5 core dmg and no points while my opponent won on scoring

dapper furnace
#

oof

shrewd sequoia
#

It was interesting to play 1-2 rounds with 0 max hand size

shrewd sequoia
#

Having broken my "no runner wins" streak in the league feels nice tho

pastel nova
#

Guess which card is which

#

Context

#

Chinese community is now making an effort to come up with ultra simplified card design to better facilitate proxy printing

#

All cards in this screenshot are from system gateway

shrewd sequoia
#

Decoded 4 so far I think

#

So, decoded all and found a misprint

#

||Mayfly|| threw me for a loop as it's MU is 2 while the proxy is at 1

pastel nova
#

||left to right, top to bottom: overclock, sure gamble, T-400, mayfly, smartware distributor, verbal plasticity, precision design, Luminal Transubstantiation, nico campaign, ansel, bran, seamless launch||

#

i'll report the misprint

shrewd sequoia
#

What does the dots represent?

pastel nova
#

copies to be included in the premade tutorial deck

shrewd sequoia
#

Ah

#

And I guess the ++ is for the extended tutorial deck?

pastel nova
#

ye

shrewd sequoia
#

I wonder if we'll ever get alt runners, like a new Kabonessa Wu or Whizzard

pastel nova
#

that'd be fun

shrewd sequoia
#

Like, Grand Whizzard: Gamer Coach

#

Kinda wish we could search for cards that have been banned

#

Only 3 banned Identities in the game, 2 runners and 1 corp

shrewd sequoia
#

All corps have 4 identities where they are the same name until the title/tagline, Jinteki bordering on a 5th

pale night
#

but I always thought it would be a cool idea

shrewd sequoia
#

I am guessing cuz of IP protection and such

shrewd sequoia
#

It feels like 90+% of my league games end up in a corp split
