Hey I just got into the game with my gf and we each bought a core set to make the 4 awesome decklists on cardb. I was just wondering about where to go from here because we do enjoy the game but it seems that me playing as Stark is way better than the rest of the decks.
I was just wondering if getting the deluxe expansions will help with balance or will it just add more cards? I'm just worried because at first my gf wanted to be the Targaryen's but I just completely destroy her by rushing out direwolves. Now she plays as the Lannister's and it's a closer game (usually ends 16-8 me) but she still feels like she doesn't have a chance.
Her main issue is that the Stark deck seems to flow nicely while the rest of the decks are just a lot of different cards. As an example each direwolf of each Stark works well if they're with or in play alongside their "master." How Jon Snow and Ghost mesh amazingly well and then their are locations that let me get more direwolves into my hand just flows nicely but every other deck is just kind of "loose" and seem like just a deck of independent cards.
I'm not sure if I'm missing something or if maybe the Stark deck just makes the "flow" more obvious but I'm worried that after sinking another $60 buying a few deluxe expansions will just result in more cards as opposed to a more fun experience.
I was also wondering what opinions their are about deckbuilding? I understand LCGs are well-known for the deckbuilding possibilities and that that's where a lot of the fun comes from but neither her or I have the necessary will or knowledge to make decks. We like playing as if It's like Marvel Legendary where it acts somewhat as a board game.
Sorry for the long post but my last question is what are the difficulties of the different LCGs? I read that AGoT seems to be the most advanced so is there another LCG that's easier to play and easier to make decks for? I figure if I invest in the core set for an easier LCG that I can get used to deckbuilding for them and then I could come back to AGoT once I'm more of a seasoned LCG player.
Thanks in advance.
