Build your first Neuroscape deck

Start with a list you can learn

For a prepared starting point, browse the starter decks. Open a list to inspect its Mainframe, cards and statistics, then choose Customize this deck. Your copy is independent of the published list.

If you already have an exported list, open My decks and choose Import Deck. Review the import before creating the draft.

New to the game itself? Guided Neuroscape lessons use prepared decks and teach the game before you need to build one.

Find cards and check your construction

Start a new deck, give it a name, then search the editor by card name or rules text. Filters help narrow the catalog by faction, type, cost, set and rarity. Inspect the artwork and rules before adding a card.

Deckscape separates your Mainframe, Cyberdeck, RAM deck and sideboard, and checks constructed legality. Resolve the editor's warnings before publishing or choosing a deck for play. Read the deck-construction reference for the reviewed rules and official source.

Use deck statistics to inspect the RAM cost curve and card types. The opening-hand tester lets you inspect draws and mulligans; it is a separate tool from the full simulator.

Keep a draft or publish a snapshot

Guest drafts stay in this browser. Clearing browser storage can lose them. Signing in offers an account copy so you can keep working across devices.

Saving a draft keeps it private. Publishing shares a snapshot of its list, description and display name. Later draft edits do not change that snapshot until you publish again.

A useful optional description explains your game plan, important cards, opening-hand choices and substitutions you have tried. State the experience behind matchup advice so other players can judge it.

Manage your Neuroscape collection

Collection tracks owned quantities by printing. Deck comparisons combine alternate printings with the same gameplay name and show the copies you are missing. Collection quantities are not reserved for a single deck.

Guest collections stay on the device. Account collections are private and saved explicitly. Preview a device collection import before saving it to your account.

Test the deck in the online simulator

Choose Play this deck from your deck, or open the Neuroscape simulator. Join a public game, invite a friend, or practice against a bot. A gauntlet keeps your chosen deck through a series of bot opponents.

Use the card database to investigate a card, follow its published-deck links for examples, and return to your own draft to try a change.
