Baby's First Corp Deck - Penny for your thoughts?

emceehuge 1

Pretty darn straight-forward: Pack enough damage threats to make them think twice about running. Score points if they're too hesitant, flatline 'em if they're too eager!

This is my first shot at a corp deck so I'd love to hear what you guys have to say!

Jinteki's 1st Identity is one of those harder to play, to be sure. If you're not limited in card pool, you might want to investigate Jinteki: Replicating Perfection before stepping in Black Tree's Executive's boots.

Other than that, you might find yourself running low on money pretty quickly. Cards to keep you up in pace include, but are not limited to: Gila Hands Arcology, Celebrity Gift and Pop-up Window.

Private Security Force could be something else entirely, since it's pretty hard to land tags first, then score PSF, and afterwards actually get the benefit of it. NAPD Contract or extra copies of Corporate War might serve you better.

What about Green Level Clearance instead of Anonymous Tip? This, once again, considering you're not too limited in card choices.

Housekeeping is cool! Definitely a nice addition.

Neural Katana could work as 1 or 2 off, since it's so easily countered by Mimic alone. Unless you're willing to ramp up their strength with Patch or something similar!

Enigma is silly good, and I'd consider one or two if I were you. Instead of Viktor or Hunter, maybe?

I'd advice bringing in more bucks as a start! Good luck!

I think you'll find that rezzing Wall of Thorns is too expensive and not impactful enough in this deck. I think you'd be better off with a cheaper ice that you can lay down early to tax the runner with. I'd throw out examples, but not sure which cards you have. You'll find something though.

For house keeping you have to commit to 3 and go for central server style PE, I have one posted you can check out, katana doesn't work so well without batty, hunter doesn't make sense either, precog is really cool but doesn't really work right now in netrunner believe me I wish it did. PE is a beautiful and rewarding deck but requires a lot of tech every time the meta shifts, keep at it, and good luck a lot of people start with it then go away from it. My latest PE deck is up as well, it's as current as it gets as far as meta call goes right now.
