The deck building card game that I usually play nowadays is Dominion, but I have heard good things about Ascension so tried playing it for a bit. It’s similar to Dominion in the sense that you can apply similar strategies (get rid of useless cards from your deck, try and draw your entire deck into your hand each turn, etc) but also different in a way – most of the non-trivial cards are limited (maybe maximum of 2 in the game) so you can’t rely on buying the same cards to build your deck.
It’s fun for variety, but after awhile, it starts getting repetitive. I haven’t tried playing the expansion sets yet though, so maybe I should do that? It’s not like Dominion is that replayable without its expansions.
