Ep. 46 - Netdecking

Author: hobbies + happiness, LLC April 13, 2022 Duration: 1:28:16
Today's topic is a doozy! If you've been into card gaming for any length of time, you most likely heard of the term netdecking. In fact, we started talking a little bit about this topic in Episode #42 when we were talking about Marvel Champions and why we enjoyed that game. We did say that we would dive deeper into the topic of netdecking, and here is that episode. If you've heard of the term netdecking, you may be familiar with its negative connotation in the world of card gaming, and we think that it is garbage 😂. In this episode we go over what netdecking is, and why we think it is a good practice to do in card gaming. We hope you enjoy the conversation!

Dan and Jim host The Hobbies + Happiness Podcast: A Disney Lorcana Podcast, a weekly conversation dedicated to the shared experience of playing the Disney Lorcana card game with friends. While many focus on competitive one-on-one duels, this show explores the vibrant, chaotic, and strategic world of multiplayer formats. Every episode picks apart a specific topic, from deck-building philosophies tailored for a table of players to the social dynamics that emerge when three or four Illuminees clash. The discussion always circles back to how these multiplayer considerations shape the broader game, influencing card choices and overall strategy. You’ll hear genuine analysis and personal stories about why gathering around a table for a multiplayer game creates a uniquely engaging and fun way to enjoy Lorcana. This isn't just about rules and combos; it's about the laughter, the alliances, and the unexpected moments that make the game memorable. Produced by hobbies + happiness, LLC, the podcast serves as a thoughtful resource for players looking to deepen their enjoyment of Lorcana beyond the standard match, emphasizing how shared hobbies contribute to genuine connection and fun. Tune in for a regular dose of insight that will change how you view your next game night.
