That is somewhat encouraging. I guess you're right, that what I'm trying to get to is more about being able to win with any combination of Heroes than literally with any deck. And I do think the Songs really go a long way in opening up the flexibility of which heroes can use which cards.
Are there any tips you can offer about how to improve playing skill (as opposed to deck-building skill) other than just playing a lot of games?
EDIT: For this purpose, do you think it would be better to learn and work my up by playing harder scenarios with easier decks (to get more familiar with the game and the card combos, etc) or by player easier scenarios with more thematic heroes, to get used to dealing with that handicap?

I'm not convinced that playing more games is the way to improve playing skill. What you need to do is to ensure that you understand all the timing issues for doing things, and the tricks and clever ideas that can improve your game. Playing more will help in some things, but probably not those things. For those, try reading strategy posts on forums, or read session reports that go into the detail. You will probably get some 'aha' moments, and perhaps several "I didn't know you could do that" moments too.
