The core cards in every deck

By gavinwatson, in Android: Netrunner Deck Building

Hi Guys,

I like to have several physcial decks pre-made to save time. However, there are certain cards that appear in almost every deck, such as Hedgefund, Jackson Howard, SanSan City Grid etc...

So I decided to purchase some of these cards singularly, rather than buying multiple core sets and expansions just for one partiuclar card. My question to the forum is what cards they would consider buying multiple copies of? Or another way of phrasing it would be what cards make up the core of Corp and Runner decks?

Any suggestions would be greatly appriciated.

Truly? None. Every card needs to fight for its place in your deck. Some cards like Jackson or Sure Gamble end up in a hell of a lot of decks, but I have (and will again) build decks which are better without them.

You should have two core sets anyway. For what you're talking about, also, there's nothing wrong with printing Proxy cards for casual play, then only obtaining enough real cards when you are ready to hit a tournament.
