Subgenre of Card Games that focuses on deck construction. While superficially similar to the Collectible Card Game (CCG), there is a key difference: The deck construction happens during the game, not before. Like CCGs, players in deck-building games (or "deckbuilders") have their own personal decks that they draw their hand from. Unlike CCGs, but like traditional card games, these personal decks are made from the fixed cards of a game set rather than a personal collection. Unlike CCGs which typically focus on "card battle", deckbuilding games typically focus on resource competition. At the start of the game, each player's deck begins with the same low resource or weak victory/offense cards. To win, the player must use these limited resources to purchase more powerful cards from a common pool. Cards that they purchase are added to their decks, making them stronger and more effective. A key aspect of most deck-building games is that players don't get to keep their hand from turn to turn. At the end of a player's turn, they take all the cards they played, and all the cards they have left in their hand, and sweep them into their discard pile, then they draw a new hand from their deck. If the player runs out of cards to draw, they reshuffle their discard pile to re-form their deck. This way, players will begin to draw the cards that they purchased and will be able to see their decks gradually improve. There are often also ways to permanently remove cards from players' decks, as getting rid of weak cards further improves the player's draws. The challenge in deckbuilding games is figuring out how to design your deck to maximize efficiency. Players have to consider the types of cards they need, their abilities, how many cards they have, and what to keep. They need to clean out Deck Cloggers, get cards to expand their actions, and to figure out which cards work best with each other. The ideal draw should be able to combine into a winning hand. See also Drafting Mechanic for a way to construct the deck, whether during gameplay or before the game really starts. Slay the Spire can be seen as the Genre Popularizer for deckbuilding video games. Many of them (including Slay) overlap with the Roguelike genre. |

Legends of Runeterra has its "Path of Champions" mode, where you pick a Champion and play through a variety of adventure maps, choosing between opponent with different decks and abilities and gaining new cards, upgrades for your cards, and powers as you go. Your champions gain experience and level up as they complete adventures which improves their starting deck, can have their star rank upgraded by collecting shards, making their Champion card and starting abilities more powerful, and you can also unlock Relics to equip on your Champion. | |

Star Realms, an Ascension spinoff where the players fight each other in a Standard Sci Fi Setting using starships and bases. It has its own spinoffs: Cthulhu Realms, a Cthulhu Mythos based spinoff, done in a more humorous tone. Hero Realms, a medieval fantasy spinoff, with bases being replaced by Champions and ships with Actions and Items. In contrast to Star Realms' strategic viewpoint, players are characters operating in a traditional fantasy city. |
