I just hit the 30 card marker yesterday (in part due to some nice luck on Gold Card pulls - managed a WoL somehow), including finally getting my Bahamut off of the King. I have basically one card left to get from the Saucer NPCs and then I won't have to play them again unless I want to grind MGP (on more King, ugh) or purchase more boosters/the valuable cards.
Still, just hitting that 30 marker was so nice. Being able to replace all the one-stars with two-stars is such a boost to basic play. My deck actually feels like it can win more often in random challenges... for the most part. The biggest thing is that I'm still a bit iffy on actually constructing the deck. If I'm not building it for a specific purpose (standard load for King, all Beastmen for Ascension), I find myself just using the Recommended set with a couple minor tweaks.
Mainly, I like sticking to the cards that have a good all around average, and have multiple medium-level sides as opposed to one big side at the cost of the others. For example, I like cards like Memeroon and Frixio (three 6s and a 2) over Gerolt (two 7s, a 1, and a 3). I know it sets me up bad for Plus matches with others using similar cards, but I like being prepared to capitalize on any low number. Nothing irked me more in the one-star "Recommended" deck than the fact that I had no real strong right-hand numbers.
And I just know I'm going to do worse and worse in the higher-level matches if I don't figure out how I should be putting my deck together.
