The pronunciation guide for Elevation is now available on the Elevation product page. For accessibility, we reproduce it below.
We hope you’ve been enjoying your first games of Netrunner with the new Elevation cards, and we thank you for your patience in waiting for this pronunciation guide.
We would like to especially thank Beings Holding Places, Prinprin, and Tildrun Weber for their help in preparing this guide. We would also like to thank everyone in the Indo Netrunner: Re-Rezzed discord for helping us with card name and flavour text suggestions. We’re just sad we couldn’t use all the great ideas!
Although the the languages used in card names change each Netrunner set, we aim to keep the English Approximations relatively consistent each time. We hope you find this useful.
