Hello everyone, I hope you had a good holiday season. I didn’t play much Netrunner over the past 2 weeks, so there’s not much Actionable Content for you here today. Instead, a few small updates and then an outline of what I’d like to aim for in 2025 as far as the game is concerned.
Updates:
Worth a watch if you haven’t been linked to it yet- thanks to efforts from the Neon Static crew we have more public information on Dawn and what we can expect from the product:
This article from NSG Aksu about Off-Meta Month is quite interesting to us “Standard Only” diehards due to its inclusion of historically relevant deck lists (under “Deck Suggestions”). It’s a trip down memory lane worth taking for sure.
The NRDB deck of the week is from fellow SCRUBS-member Baserton/Fabio who has been on quite the git gud quest and rapidly levelling up.
2025 Goals
These goals are explicitly not resolutions. They are targets to aim for, not things that cannot be re-prioritized or abandoned. They’re listed in rough order of importance.
Play in at least 10 real-life tournaments throughout the year.
Make the cut in at least 2 of those tournaments (with more than 8 players).
Tournament Organize at least 2 events.
When Dawn is spoiled make highly formal predictions about what’s good.
Play in at least 10 online tournaments throughout the year.
Start contributing deck lists on Netrunnerdb.
Continue blogging about Netrunner regularly.
And that’s it! I don’t know if I’ll be able to play at Worlds this year (unlikely) and I don’t know if I’ll have the time to grind enough to clinch an invitational invite, so I’m not even setting that as a goal. This list is ‘fun-optimized’ and that’s enough for me.
Come to our District tournament in Pittsburgh on Sunday, March 2nd! We'd love to have you and any other locals make the trip; and return the favor by traveling down to an event or two.

Would commenting on deck list on Netrunnerdb count? This might be a way towards your goal that would engage with the community. Keep on posting!
