The hand size is deliberately small so that the number of cards you get is limited unless you actually use them. Earning tens of cards a week would be a bit excessive, really. It also makes it hard to maintain a lot of static abilities at once, because having a lot of static-ability cards would leave you with few cards to play and so few draws; in my opinion, this is a good thing. -- ais523
