Beginner Runner Criminal

General

I wanted to show the game to a friend but I really don't like the Nisei Starter/Booster decks, so I made an easy to use deck for every main faction.

For these deck I wanted to stay close to the current standart pool (Standart Banlist 21.10) but if I knew of a easier to use card that's almost the same I took that (for example Desperado instead of Pennyshaver). Also I put only 2 copies of most cards into the decks to be able to use more different cards.

This Deck

This is the deck I would recommand to make a first game (as runner) because it rewards for running so it's a good way to learn that runs win you the game.

The strategy is as simple as it gets, run to get Cards and Credits.

Matchups (with my other Beginner decks)

This deck seems to have a slight edge against my HB and Weyland beginner decks. And might struggle a bit against the NBN and Jinteki decks (I didn't play these matchups yet)

Some notes to specific cards

Carmen -> I simply didn't want to add Bukhgalter

Diversion of Funds -> since most decks main focus is to gain enough money that a new player doesn't struggle this card is not really strong in slowing down the corp but I had to put it into a criminal deck

Hot Pursuit -> my intends here is to show that stronger cards come usually with a drawback, which you might be able to lessen with a Synergy .

DreamNet -> The main draw of this deck

Desperado -> I used this instead of Pennyshaver because it's clearly a lot easier to use and the difference is probably "only" 4-6 in a game.
