@corpcasselbury, all the collectible card games keep releasing new “series” or “editions” so they can keep selling cards. Each new series that is released “changes the power curve”, meaning the cards keep getting higher numbers of all the game functions, that is, more powerful. So, you have to keep buying cards to keep your play deck up to date, or you’ll lose every game to people who have the newer cards. What the comic means is that they’re playing with the original series of cards that was first released however many years ago, before it kept changing over the years with more and more cards added.
