Take out the Trash

Image
I've got so much going on in my life right now, it's pretty much official.  This blog is only for when: * I'm bored. * I'm in a writing mood. * I'm in a gaming mood. * I have an idea of something worth writing. This is understandably very rare, but whatever.  I just can't abandon it.  I'd like to use this irony to lead into the idea I just had: the role of trashing in deckbuilding card games.  When I first started playing this genre and I saw Chapel, I just couldn't comprehend how a card like this could be good.  I mean, you spend so much time trying to build up your deck.  You want cards, right?  It took a long time, but I eventually discovered just how powerful trashing is.  I hope I'll enlighten you a bit on the concept here.
