Running the Nets! Weekly Netrunner Articles! (Updated 4/29/13)

By AndrewRogue, in Android: Netrunner The Card Game

I have joined this whole streaming craze ! Admittedly, unlike a lot of people, I’m streaming myself playing a card game.

So, if you’re interested in hearing me blather and play random folks on OCTGN, drop by. If I have any particularly super interesting games, I’ll note them here.

I have also been recording all of my matches from the second Boardgamegeek Netrunner tourny but, at the request of the tourny organizers, I’ll be holding those until the event is over.

So yeah, check it out, provide feedback, etc. I’m new to this whole streaming thing so your thoughts are appreciated.

Super special thanks to db0 for helping me correct some early video problems. Check out his stream as well. if you haven't!

More new cards! This time they actually matter, too!

Running the Nets - A First Look at A Study In Static

Let us hop straight into this without much ado. A Study in Static is out! New cards (that are actually out), my first impressions, etc…

Thanks for all the articles Andrew. They've been incredibly helpful as I learn the game. Keep up the good work!

Running the Nets is back up and at its new home. I'm still sorting out some of the basics of my new home (RSS, subscriptions, layout, etc), but, in the meanwhile, why don't you enjoy some juicy new Netrunner content?

Running the Nets - The Edge of (the) World as We Know It

All the way back in ancient times when Cyber Exodus was released, there was one card that generated a bit of buzz before being overshadowed by all the other shenanigans (Personal Workshop, Chaos Theory, Emergency Shutdown, Test Run) in Cyber Exodus.

Still, the card hung around in the back of my mind, sitting there, patiently biding its time, waiting for the opportune moment to leap into the forefront of my brain, and demand I build a deck around it.

In case the title of this post wasn’t enough of a hint, that card is Edge of World…

New blog home is looking pretty good. So let's get some more content up there, eh? Also, I just realized I haven't been updating the date on this post correctly!

Running the Nets - Notorious Runners

This week I feel like continuing my previous trend of talking about cards that garnered a lot of early discussion and then just sort of fell off the discussion train. And since I hit a Corp card last week, let’s rock with a Runner card this time…

I realize I've been meaning to talk at least a little bit about traps lately. And since I'm running a trap-y deck right now, no time like the present!

Running the Nets - It's a Trap!

Traps are a bit of a thing in Android: Netrunner. They really aren’t easy to use correctly, but understanding them is essential to playing the game. Thankfully, as a rogue (har, har), I’ve got some experience with the blasted things. So, why don’t you stay a while and let me tell you about them…

I'm decompressing right now, so enjoy this ranty discussion on my thoughts on the BGG OCTGN Tourny, the game itself, and the decks I ran.

Running the Nets - Tourny's End

With the 2nd Board Game Geek OCTGN tourny over (as well as Regionals), I figure I should take a little bit to decompress and talk about it, the game itself, and my decks. This one is a bit long, so feel free to take it in chunks…

New cards? New cards.

Running the Nets - Humanity's Shadow Preview

Its that time again! A little belated this time around, as Humanity’s Shadow took a while to actually come out, but hey. Everyone loves new cards…
