   @DrRyanSkelton @merchantHelios In Star Realms, which is a pretty unremarkable deckbuilder in general, it is theoretically possible to replace your entire deck with 5 "opponent discards a card" cards. They also deal about 10 damage a turn.

     @Zerglingman @DrRyanSkelton @merchantHelios I think the factions are pretty neat.
     blue "I'm healing myself again"
     yellow "I'm drawing another card"
     green "I'm doing bonus damage"
     red "I'm discarding cards I don't need, optimizing my deck"

     @apropos @merchantHelios @DrRyanSkelton Card draw is reasonably evenly spread across the factions (except maybe red). Yellow's gimmick is discards.
     The two big problems with the game are things Sirlin addressed very directly:
     1) you can just choose not to buy
     2) everyone starts the same
