What are the best card games from a design/mechanics perspective?

Vanguard has a pretty interesting design

Every card is used for a different purpose. It can be summoned, be used as shield either from hand or on the field, be chucked into the damage zone and used as resource later, or be discarded as cost

Too bad the game designed into self into a corner though.

Go Fish

Kill yourself.

Dam those cards are hard to read.

Imagine MTG if it played like Magi-nation with planeswalkers instead of magi.

This game released in the worst possible time, but it was fun.

Duel Card Buddyfight.

Force of will and duel masters and dragoborne are both good in design and mechanics.

Netrunner

>Yu-Gi-Oh

Are you joking?

>creativity

Is that what you call creating large quantities of cards that barely interact with each other?

Android: N-n-netr-runner? It's my absolute favorite

>rulings on YuGiOh mechanic interactions are whatever the present judge decided at that moment and then become set in stone
So great.

Bridge.

Force of Will gets interesting but they go too far in power meter a good amount of the time.

problem with yugioh is their base game is so lame that all of the cards now have effects that fill the entire box with font size 6 text.

I miss old yugioh. Yeah, it was lame at times but it was so much easier to keep track of things.

Duel Masters is one of the best games mechanically, but suffers from poor handling and design.

Android: Netrunner went too far and became a board game

As someone who likes yugioh, it is terribly designed. Power creep the game is not a good thing and it stems from poor design.

Suffers from being Japanese.
Fuckers can't understand insane power creep is terrible.
