so i love dominion but honestly i think i hate pretty much every other deckbuilder i've ever played

it's like they tried to be dominion but removed all the things that make it good

the center card row is generally garbage. multiple currencies don't really work. (even most dominion fans hate potions, which are reasonably well implemented) some games just aren't even pretending to be something different, but are still worse in terms of balance or design.

the best deckbuilding-based games are ones where the deck-building/cycling mechanic (such as in, say, rococo, great western trail or, more abstractly, concordia) is really the only thing taken from dominion, and latched onto a much more complex and involved game.
