Episode 54: The Buckyweave Grew

2.1: A Netrunner Reboot Project Podcast

Like an elevator car ascending arrow-straight out of The Root at Volcán Cayambe, we head Upstalk in the first pack of the third cycle of cards in Android: Netrunner to examine the buffs (and one nerf) that the Reboot Project makes to the Corp cards, and look closely at the five pieces of ice included. This comes after some bits of news -- including how you can access a bonus episode of the podcast! -- and some suggestions from TheBigBoy on good decks for absolute beginners.
