This is my first attempt to build a deck. After playing Netrunner a couple of times with a few wrong rules I felt the need to improve the economy for the Jinteki Core deck.

I added Adonis Campaign to boost the economy and Aggressive Secretary to create more ambush opportunities. I also added Data Raven to start using the trace mor often and be able to trash the runner resources.

To improve the hand size I added Research Station.

Welcome to NetrunnerDB :)

The deck looks good for a first attempt. You should try it out and see for yourself what the weaknesses are. Try to play it a bit and pay attention to which cards you tend to make the least use of.

For example if you would play three games with this deck without rezzing Cell Portal even once, you could throw it out of the deck. (That ICE can be hard to set up in a way that actually hurts the runner more than you, since you might be paying 5 just to send the runner back, breaking something for 3 and coming back.)

You said you want to add more tagging (Data Raven) and more ambushes, so you might take a look at Ghost Branch. It has the potential to give the runner multiple tags, so he can't get rid of all of them. Plus, it costs only one influence.

Also, you should try playing against different runner decks. There are even some runners that don't use Resources at all, so you might tag them without effect. A lot of people tend to use Scorched Earth to further punish the runner for being tagged. But it has the disadvantage of costing 4 influence points, so you have to decide if it's worth to set aside other things for it.

And you should pay attention to if you really make use of your bigger hand size. I must admit, I'm not a fan of Reaearch Station. But it's your deck, so don't let me spoil that card for you.

I hope you can make use of some of the tips :)

Thanks for the advice! I'm going to try those cards that you mentioned. Today I will probably start playing agains other runners and maybe start playing as a runner as well. :)
