Who else uses an original deck?

To be fair, these days, cards are designed as packages, not as individual cards. Home brewing was more of a thing in general when individual cards held more weight

This taps into one of my bigger complaints about the direction HS has taken by overdeveloping archetypes (and their packages):

4). Overdeveloped archetypes! Come on, quit trying to get me to buy the resources needed to make a couple of premade decks till you nerf them, so that I have buy more resources to make the other mostly premade decks, which now have a chance post-nerfs to be the best decks. How about making the “archetype packages“ with fewer cards, leaving more room for player experimentation in the deck design process, which can then lead to and allow for more variation of cards between decks of the same archetype.

@Zee-1630

Strongly overdeveloping and pushing archetypes, along with having events with professional players showcasing new archetypes before the new cards are even released really robs a lot of the fun that comes from experimenting with the new cards and the process of building new decks,

I like experimenting with new cards and designing new decks, but that kind of fun is diminished greatly when the decks/archetypes feel mostly premade. Strongly overdeveloped packages results a new meta being already significantly solved even before the new expansions are released.
