The specific mechanics of the game are not well known in detail except by the company. However, both from my experience and what I have heard from others on this wiki, the recommend buttom generally does a good job of balancing that stuff out while accounting for faction bonus and whatnot. As someone else said (I don't remember who), your deck power is more reflective of your attack rather than overall quality. In fact, some people have reported doing less damage despite a higher deck power than what was recommended.
