After
a solid decade of card collecting, I have suddenly been hit with the
realisation that no functional deck can be made up of only all my favourite
cards. Oh, no. There’s strategy and deck themes to be had.
This fact is glaringly obvious with such trading
card games as Magic: The Gathering and Pokémon, where you are limited to using only
one or a few different colours within a deck. Sure, you can be unique and chuck
in all the pretty colours of the rainbow, but you’d be screwed if you actually
tried duelling with it.
