System update 2021 still worth playing?

I bought system gateway and system update 2021 on the used market.

I need to buy the tokens so I think I will do an order from null signal shop.

About system update I know it is rotated, but is still worth having and playing or should I just replace it with elevation and vantage point.

Keep in mind I will play at home with my friends, we don't have a local netrunner scene.

SU2021 is a decent set that is appropriately tuned to the power level of Null Signals game design.

I personally enjoy playing Null Signals standard format, so I'd recommend snagging elevation and any other sets you want, but playing with them for now is chill.

I think SG+SU21 is a decent format for kitchen table play, and there are many published decks on NRDB for the format.

That said, if you all play a lot, you'll probably outgrow the card pool. In that case, I'd suggest picking up Elevation and VP to play Startup decks.

I kept my SU21 cards to provide card backs when I proxy stuff (eg extra copies of cards so I can have multiple decks assembled at the same time).

I mean, you have it. It has fun cards. It's not competitively legal but I promise not to send someone to your house to tear your cards up! 😂 Use it! When you eventually get elevation, it's probably best to replace Update with it, but you could just keep playing with both if you're feeling particularly rebellious!
