NBN – First Attempt

Soo many cards here. And lots of one-ofs that could easily bring you down in numbers. You want a slim deck that can efficiently do what you want, and bloating the numbers will only make it harder to get the cards you need. Most Corp decks are at the highest limit in the lowest number of agendas they can do (so, for a 45 card min deck like this, most people do 49 cards) to keep the agenda ratio as low as possible.

Speaking of agendas, you definitely don't need 3 Priority Requisitions. Not only is that a lot of 3-point agendas (I've had someone get 6 points from me in one turn by having too many 3-pointers. Don't be me.), but none of your ICE costs more than 5, so it wouldn't even be that useful to have them to begin with.

You ICE is all good. I always feel that ICE is really where you can play around an express yourself in a deck, so I won't judge. You've got a nice spread of types, though, which is good.

I would also do more asset econ, maybe, like more PAD Campaigns or some Melange Mining Corp.s. I'll point out that while City Surveillance sounds cool, it's really just a very expensive way to do a tiny tiny tax that'll probably never help land you a tag.

And yeah, your operations could use some slimming down. Nix the Biotic Labor, Shipment from MirrorMorph, maybe the Psychographics. They aren't really doing anything for you, especially as one-ofs. And Psychographics is kind of nothing without Midseason Replacements, as you'll never really have more than one tag on someone and they'll probably wipe it immediately.

Otherwise, good luck and have fun, man.

Also, NBN can run Jackson Howard without influence, and I don't see any reason not to.

@citizenkeenI don't think I have that Jackson Howard. I only own Core, Mala Tempora, Second Thoughts, and Trace Amount...I know; it's sad.

@wswan Thanks for all the tips! Would you generally not suggest only have one copy of a card? I feel like my extensive operation list is from my Dominion days.

@hoppities: Ah, well, if you don't have Action Jackson then you can't add him to your deck. Totally understandable. That being said, it's probably best to make Opening Moves your next purchase.

I agree about getting Jackson Howard, he's close to an auto-include in most corp decks. I've created a list that I would use if I had your card pool, you can check it out below at 'inspiration for' if you like.

@hoppities I think some small splashes for surprises are good (like a Scorched Earth or two in an NBN deck is pretty cool), but a lot of the other 1-ofs are just never going to be there when you need them because they won't have the card density to show up. Things like Shipment from MirrorMorph, Psychographics (which will absolutely never do anything for you), and even that Biotic Labor are easy cuts. Mind, they're all good, and the Biotics could be very helpful in a fast advace NBN, but they are just clogging the machine.
