	The design of how [[Decks]] are used in games rely primarily on deciding which [[Cards]] can be used. A secondary choice is how many [[Decks]] should be used, e.g. should each player have their own [[Decks]]? [[Deck Building]] or [[Pre-Customized Decks]] allow players to construct the [[Decks]] used and is very often used when players have their own [[Decks]].

	Each [[Decks\|Deck]] in a game can be design as [[Closed Economies]] or [[Faucet/Drain]] systems, with [[Deck Building]] as the primary way to design the latter choice. The most common use of [[Decks]] is as [[Drawing Stacks]], often to let players create [[Hands]]. This can be modified by [[Drafting Spreads]] that let players ~~choice~~ which [[Cards\|Card]] from a limited set they wish to take. [[Discard Piles]] are typically used whenever the number of [[Cards]] in [[Decks]] are not sufficient for the intended gameplay time or when re-use of [[Cards]] for new [[Drawing Stacks]] are intended; this creates true [[Closed Economies]] if no new [[Cards]] are introduced and lets new [[Cards]] be randomized with the old ones when [[Deck Building]] is used (since new [[Cards]] are typically placed in [[Discard Piles]]).

	~~This pattern is a still a stub~~.		Cards are found in many games. [[Decks]] are in many games simply the collection of all cards while in some other games different [[Decks]] exists for different functions or each player have their own [[Decks]].

			All traditional [[:Category:Card Games\|Card Games]], e.g. [[Contract Bridge]], [[Poker]], and [[Whist]], makes use of [[Decks]]. In all these cases they use the same set of 52 cards, while games such as [[Bang!]], [[Dominion]], [[Fluxx]], [[Frank's Zoo]], [[Munchkin]], [[No Thanks!]], [[Race for the Galaxy]], [[The Great Dalmuti]], and [[Uno]] make use of [[Decks]] customized for those games.

	~~==== Anti~~-~~Examples ====~~		[[:Category:Collectible Card Games\|Collectible Card Games]] such as [[Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft]], [[Magic: The Gathering]], [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], [[Star Trek Customizable Card Game]], and [[Illuminati: New World Order]] also make use of [[Decks]], but in this case each player creates (or is assigned) his or her own [[Decks\|Deck]] to play with. Deck Building games such as [[Dominion]], [[Legendary: A Marvel Deck Building Game]], [[The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring Deck-Building Game]], and [[Thunderstone]] function in the same way, but here players expand their [[Decks]] during gameplay.

			[[Decks]] provide [[Randomness]] for games using [[Cards]]. Keeping track of which [[Cards]] are left in [[Decks]] often provide gameplay advantage and because of this the presence of [[Decks]] encourage [[Memorizing]]. It can also provide [[Strategic Knowledge]] either when players know which [[Cards]] are in [[Decks]] or when they can create them through [[Deck Building]] or [[Pre-Customized Decks]].
