You might want to be able to beat higher level decks with skill if the player with the higher ranked deck plays bad

At the moment their is not sutch thing as bad play in my Opinion ! The Only thing you can make bad is how you position your Monsters ,everything else is not in your influence. in Other games like magic the gathering or Hearthstone you can realy make bad plays but not in a game where no interaction is and everything is made automatically.
What i like Steemmonsters is a quick Game . You can make 20 Games in a hour .
And yes the game has a little bit from p2w as long monsters dont lvl by fighting .
