The issue with Faeria is game length-- while I enjoyed it, it's a fact that games take twice as long as other online card games due to the board. Not sure I'd really compare Faeria to Netrunner though. Netrunner does have the feeling of building a board due to the fact that you can create servers and set up ICE in front of those servers, but clicks are static whereas in Faeria the amount of Faeria you can gather per turn is controlled by how many creatures you have at wells. The second resource, special land types, are something you can choose to place on the board at any time (once per turn), but doing so prevents you from developing your board with double normal lands or drawing an extra card. i recommend checking out keyforge, at least as a study. you draw up to your hand size every turn, and have infinite mana of one color of your choice each turn. the randomness or variance factor of keyforge comes from the fact that your deck is forced to be 3 colors, so your hand might not align with what you most want i mentioned before that FFTCG allows you to pitch cards to generate mana, so it seems to be a recurring trend I tried Keyforge, and I'm not sure how I feel about the way it plays in terms of factions. Since you can only interact with cards of the chosen faction (on board and in hand) it always felt like I was just choosing the same faction over and over until I reached a tipping point in my hand. --- Ginhyun https://imgur.com/t7G7uoU <cite>VintageGin posted [p:959336981] in Magic the ...
