Welcome to the first online edition of COSTUME PARTY\, a custom forma t brewed up by the witches in the Austin Texas Netrunner community that ha s been played on Halloween for six years straight. Now\, for the first tim e\, being held online!

The format is simple:

\n\n

That's all it takes! It's a great way to try new deck ideas\, a nd really break netrunner wide open. Want to see what happens when you pla y a green egg? Want to bring back Omar\, but as a criminal this time? Want to give the Professor a full set of knives? Now's your opportunity! Also\, as a fun bonus: anyone playing a minifaction (apex\, adam\, sunny) will get ac cess to all of that minifaction's cards as if they were in the standard ca rdpool! ...but since you can't BE that minifaction\, you'll have to spend some of your 25 influence on them. See below for more details.

\n

Add itionally\, not only will we be giving out a prize to the winner of the to urnament\, but I'll be giving out an extra prize to whichever corp/runner decks are\, in my very subjective opinion\, the coolest idea. So if you've got a great deck idea but don't know if it's viable\, build it anyways!\n

The event will be held in the Netrunner Event Hub Discord and the games will be played on jnet. Do note that none of your decks will be legal\, so all decks must be play ed in the "\;casual"\; format. Hope to see you there in costume!\n

    Additionally\, if the runner is Apex\, Sunny\, or Adam\, all cards from that faction are added to the standard cardpool for deckbuildi ng purposes. However\, since you must shift factions\, you would then need to pay for those cards with influence. For example\, if you play ed as criminal sunny\, you could include Security Nexus in your deck\, but you'd have to pay 3 of your 25 inf for each copy. And yes\, this means every Adam deck must p ay for three starting directives\, and thus every Adam deck is down 9 infl uence to begin with.
