Meet B1u3_5cr33n a cyberpunk net-runner. She is an introvert and plays A LOT of MMORPGs. Her only friend is a Tamagatchi. She just got a deck upgrade and is fast approaching cyber psychosis. (Illustration for a friend.)

Jinteki is for lovers. (Yes, this is officially the weirdest bit of Netrunner fan nonsense I’ve ever done).

If, like me, you’re yearning for new cards, there’s a fun, new approach to card design that Gregory Tongue (Worlds 2017 second-place finisher, new head of design for NISEI) is taking on Twitter. Every day this week, he’s been posting a card design challenge -- such as “Shaper console, 3 cost, competitive, interacts with vertical play (Jinja, Surveyor, Jinteki glacier, etc)” or “Weyland, Upgrade, 2 rez, 2 trash, 3inf. I want a protective upgrade that helps me score out of a remote and feels Weyland...bonus points if it doesn't reference meat damage, tags, or advanceable ice!” (what my post above was a contribution to). My designs are half thought-out and unbalanced, but just the regular impetus to think of card designs with genuinely good, interesting constraints (not just “design a new political asset” or “design a card that’s got a bee on it”) makes this fun. Follow Greg at @CritHitd20 on Twitter, follow me at @soybeef on Twitter, check out the #NISEIDesign hashtag, again, on Twitter, and enjoy Greg’s challenges, my replies, and the (much better) replies of many others.

She sports it better than I ever could.
