In today's video I discuss my top 10 favorite collectible and expandable games (mostly card games).
Haven’t played: Sorcery, Warlord, Cyberpunk, Pokemon, One Piece, Duel Masters, Yu-Gi-Oh, Riftbound, Ashes, Alpha Clash, Dice Masters, Summoner Wars, Mage Wars
Played later: Cataclysm Arcade
Honorable mentions: Flesh and Blood, Lord of the Rings, SolForge Fusion, Netrunner, Hubworld: Aidalon, Dice Throne, X-Wing, Marvel Champions, L5R, Hearthstone, Arkham Horror
Top 10
10. Lorcana (race to points)
9: Star Wars Unlimited (1 action per turn)
8. Altered (tug of war)
7. Dragon Dice (custom dice)
6. Pokemon TCG Pocket (evolving cards)
5. KeyForge (choose a faction and play all cards of that type)
4. Gudnak (see your entire deck)
3. Rolling Realms (completely even playing field)
2. Marvel Snap (12-card decks, 3 zones)
1. Magic (such a vast platform, draft format)
Topics: impact on local stores, organized play, competitive vs cooperative, printing enough units, keeping it fresh, not necessarily a money sink (drafting vs constructed), 1v1 vs solo, coop, large group, Magic Jumpstart
