Plus other lesser-known games that fit in that spectrum.
Do people even play Vs. System anymore?
I don't think so. Upper Deck has released a Marvel deck building game, but I don't know how similar the mechanics are to the Vs. System.
The way I see it, deck building, and therefore having a proper understanding or resource management, is of fundamental importance to TCGs. The games that effectively remove resource management by allowing you to play any card as a resource, or by ignoring resources all together, tend to be severely lacking. This is one of the reasons Magic still reigns as king. It is also why I believe Pokemon TCG is actually one of the better, in spite of its kiddy source material. On the other hand, games like WoW (or Shadow Era, which is just about a clone) or Yu-Gi-Oh have a serious dearth of strategy.
