I can't get my mind around how adding and removing cards is supposed to strengthen the deck.  When I play MTG, all of my cards have to work together except in these two games, they are added one at a time. Anybody here good at either of these?  This game is turn based hence OT.

Don't worry about being OT here, pretty much any games are o.k. why we even have people talking about Nintendo games in PC group :)
I wouldn't say good.  I only played 1 or 2 runs of Slay the Spire and did not complete it. I didn't find it particularly interesting.  Unlike with MTG you don't get to choose your deck from what you have.  You start each with a specific set of cards (as if you got a premade deck,) and you run across more you can get and oportunities to remove some. Also unlike MTG Some cards you start with will be sub-optimal or even downright bad and you'll want to remove them so they don't remain in your deck clogging up your hand.
