Fifteen Decks in Fifteen Weeks, Pt 6
I have two more concept decks to present to you this time around, one of which has been refined throughout Spin and even late Genesis in prior versions. The Runner deck, Exile Parasucker, was something that I have been kicking around mentally for a little while and decided to try and bring to execution.

Fourteen Decks in Fourteen Weeks, Pt5
Christmas holidays and Summer break have gotten the better of me and this series, it seems, but here we are in February 2014 and there’s three rounds of the Spin League #1 decks to catch up on. Allon-sy!

Fourteen Decks in Fourteen Weeks, Pt4
Perhaps I should re-title this article Thirteen Decks, because this time around I played a variation on the Corp deck from the last fortnight. The reason being that by this stage of the league, I was out in front and matched against a player whom I knew to be using a net deck or two previously: Weyland Scorch (probably Glacier) and Shaper Katman.

Fourteen Decks in Fourteen Weeks, Pt3
Round three of the Spin League 1 saw one new Corp deck and one revision of a tried and true Runner deck.

Fourteen Decks in Fourteen Weeks, Pt2
Welcome back to the new series of articles about the decks that I’m tooling around with for the Adelaide City Grid’s Spin League. This round I went with a new Exile build, after rejecting the early attempt of the Pawn cycle, and a new NBN deck that I’d latched on to the concept of a week or two after my HB code gate deck started getting smashed by ( Read more... ) -
Fourteen Decks in Fourteen Weeks, Pt1
Welcome to a new mini-series of articles I’m hoping to sustain over the coming months. I’m intending to do something different for this series, which is to introduce a number of decks that I’ve designed and played, although perhaps not refined particularly well and discuss the merits and drawbacks of each. These might be completely off the wall and ( Read more... ) -
Designing an Android: Netrunner deck
I’ve stumbled across a few blog posts recently that discuss how to build Netrunner decks, and while they’re good articles in their own right, I think there’s certain missing aspects. This is my own attempt to fill that gap. While the articles that inspired me to write this one cover a lot of the mechanical bases from which to actually construct a ( Read more... ) -
The Jinteki Replicating Perfection Project, Pt2: Agenda
This article was intended to be part of a series that never really progressed beyond the concept stage, so don’t go looking for Pt1 at this time. I may come back to the deck and the series in the future though the former is more likely than the latter. Still, I thought that the notion of Action Investment in scoring various Agenda schemes made for ( Read more... ) -
Unfettered Trace: the Danger of Unlimited Tracing in A:NR
Welcome to the first essay by request in my series devoted to Android: Netrunner. This essay was requested of me by Ludo, a.k.a. wormhole surfer, a French game store proprietor, my co-editor on the Android: Netrunner The Card Game Facebook page, administrator of the French forum and blog site Run4Games, organiser of a number (all?) of the French ( Read more... ) -

Someone is in my apartment.
The security system pings me for normal shit like a B&E, but I’d got nothing while working at the Jinteki people plant. Whatever this is then, it isn’t anything normal, and so the New Angeles Police Department aren’t my best option. Lucky me. I can do without the awkward questions my ‘guest’ would prompt if they found ( Read more... )
