Editing Patience (section)

=== In Other Settings ===
In trading card games, certain deck types are derided as "solitaire" since the opponent's field state has minimal, if any, impact on your win beyond how fast you have to pull it off and the reverse is true of your opponent. One common example of this is Exodia decks in [[Yu-Gi-Oh]], where your opponent can't really interact with your game and it's just a contest to kill you before you draw all the needed cards. Outside of historical formats, even hand destruction isn't an option to provide interactivity since, even if it weren't a counter to a single deck type, the cheese of Delinquent Duo ensured future hand destruction options were comparatively limited and modern Exodia decks have recycling options ''anyways''. If Exodia wasn't so iconic this would have gotten it banned ages ago.

Similarly, some deckbuilding games amount to "competitive solitaire"; in particular, the accusation has been fielded most heavily against [[Dominion]].
