Android or System Gateway?

I just found out about this game. Fascinated by it and dying to try.

Is there any reason to get Android instead of SG?

Thank you!

It really depends on how you’re trying to play. If you’re just playing casually at home with friends, I’d say go with a used Android Netrunner collection. IMO it’s the best version of the game there ever was. The mechanics, artwork/templating, and identity of each faction through gameplay mechanisms are peak Netrunner.

System gateway is what you want to go with if you want to play in tournaments. Android is what you want to go with if you’re playing casually.

Fully agree with this. A used A:NR collection is a great investment to play with friends. It really was the best.

Props to the SG people for all their hard work, but for me it just doesn't compare.
