"Start from nothing" entrepreneur (Single revised core, R&R,

GooberMan 128

This deck was constructed for a friend who only decided a couple of days ago to get in to Netrunner, and thus I've constructed some decks with what's at hand (Single revised core, R&R, Sovereign Sight). Published for their benefit.


This is a fairly flexible runner deck. It can handle all the challenges thrown at it with the limited card pool that you have.

If your opening hand does not have Magnum Opus, mulligan for it. If your opening hand has Test Run, ignore the previous sentence and Test Run for a MOpus and click credits off it three times. Then continue as normal.

Femme Fatale is best installed with a Retrieval Run - discard it in to your Heap, then play Retrieval Run and install Femme for only 3 credits instead of 9. Value Town! Preferably host it on Dinosaurus to get that delicious strength boost.

Cyberdelia + Kyuban on some ice = Value Town!. Kyuban also works as a great Femme Fatale augment - install it on the same piece of ice that Femme can bypass, and bam, easy money.

Stimhack is for when you REALLY need to get in to a server and are just short of cash.

Wherever possible, install cards with Modded.

The card Indexing wins games. Learn to understand where the agendas might be in the deck, and play it at critical times.

HQ Interface can win games. But probably don't install it against a Jinteki deck. We'll get to why later.

Mâché is what will make up for terrible card draw thanks to only having 2 copies of Diesel. I threw in a copy of Demolition Run to highlight that you should be trashing things with all these filthy rich money piles you'll have sitting around.

Then when you get a second core, drop the Demolition Run and the Special Order and put two copies of Mr. Li in. Now that you're used to trashing things and have an idea of what cards win you games, you can burn through your deck quicker for them.

A second core really will significantly improve this deck - a key thing for a successful deck is consistency. You'd be able to run three copies of Indexing and Diesel. More copies of a card = more consistent, and especially more card draw = more consistently getting those cards.

I'll leave it up to you to work out what cards you should drop in favor of consistency. There's already some good targets that I can see for that, especially since I put them in because there wasn't much better to put in.

Protips though: Three Magnum Opus is very good for consistency. Three each of your icebreakers is silly in this deck, for three very good reasons (hint: the reasons are cards).
