How long do your homebrew cards last? It’s hard enough to make good cards at home that I think CardsAgainst Humanity has them publically available since it’s still cheaper for them to print than you would spend for a small batch.
And how do you keep your decks from being overpowered?
It’s tough to comment on how long they last, because it’s going to depend on how often you play. So I started proxying 4 years ago and haven’t had any problems yet, but I also sleeve them as though they were genuine, and only play maybe one game a week.
As for avoiding overpowered decks, I’ve been playing with the same group of guys for nearly 25 years. We’ve worked out where we like to be, and self-balance for fun. It helps that I’m a total Johnny, so I can whiff a game completely and still have fun as long as I “did the thing.”
Oh, yeah. My playgroup all gave up on buying official products years ago for that reason. Now we just buy cardstock and toner.
