There seems to be a lot of variety in L5R, from player to player and clan to clan, in the way that people construct their decks and curve the costs of their characters and cards in their conflict deck. For example, the new champs Lion deck has a very healthy mix of low and high cost characters. On a quick count, 3 zero cost, 9 one cost, 7 two cost, 11 three cost, 4 four cost and 3 five cost ( the latter of which is likely to rise with the emergence of Ikoma Ujiaki!). His conflict deck is very low cost, containing no characters and all zero and one cost cards.
I'm still trying to find my way with deckbuilding in this game, I'd like to hear peoples thoughts on this subject, what they have found works and doesn't for each clan. Feel free to share your experiences and show others what kind of decks your currently working on.
