Best expansions?

By theyellowjester, in Android: Netrunner The Card Game

Hey all. A buddy and I bought the core when it came out and have not been keeping up with the expansions. We just came back to it and will probably both pick up Creation and Control. But we dont really want to drop the cash for all of the other expansions. Which would you guys recommend? We are not really looking for super competitive decks, We mostly want cards that will make some interesting decks... Thanks!

For general play, I'd probably do this:

1. 2nd Core Set

2. What Lies Ahead

3. Cyber Exodus

4. Future Proof

This rest can pretty much be purchased in whatever order you're interested in. Once openning moves is out, that is near the top of the list as it really, really, helps out the corporations (and they need help badly).

I would say it's hard to fundamentally say 'get this Datapack over another' without knowing the kinds of strategies you'd like to play. Whilst ngunz does give some good general advice above (and a second core set will help out anyone, if only for the 2nd consoles and things like SanSan city grid) I'd recommend hitting up Netrunnercards.info or Cardgamedb.com and having a browse - see what cards you think would best compliment your runner and corp decks (or see if there's something new you'd like to build around, such as one of the new identities) and go from there.

Great. Thanks for the info. Is Opening Moves another deluxe expansion or just a regular one? I wanted to avoid doing research-- lol. But I think we will both have to take a look at what's out there. Thanks.

Opening moves is Spin Cycle 1, so comparable to What Lies Ahead which was Genesis Cycle 1. I expect we'll see another deluxe expansion after Spin Cycle finishes.
