I'll put something about that up there.


To some extent, though it's worst with A Game of Thrones. Netrunner has a much higher emphasis on how you play rather then what's in your deck, so with that it's less of a problem. I know that several of the top decks at Worlds for Star Wars: The Card Game were core only, too.

Yup! For A Game of Thrones you will always be crushed. In fact, the decks the base game gives pre-made for you don't even have enough cards to be tournament legal. (I think they're about 20 under?) This means you have to start pulling mostly neutrals from the other decks and honestly in A Game of Thrones a deck with a ton of neutrals won't get you far.

I play both Netrunner and AGoT, and it was definitely more of a priority to start getting expansions for the latter. I can't say how this compares to other LCGs, so it'd probably be best to look into that specific game.

edit: I assumed by your question that you also meant just one core deck. If you have two then what I said applies a little less, but only by a little.

Why are Team Covenant's House packs of the GOT Deluxe Expansions only a fraction of the normal price when most of the cards are for a single house?

Hmm, maybe they only give you one set of the cards in the box? Which is a little useless, and you'd be better off buying the set for the 3 packs, but that's the only reason I can think of. I can't imagine that the few other house cards that come in those boxes cover more than half the cost.
