    The Board Game Thread

    You leave the cards out when you clear your play area so it's not difficult at all. I love Dominion, it's in my view one of the best and most tightly designed games of the modern era. The interaction seems fairly limited at first to the attack cards, and this is emphasised in the base set...

    Hopeful Eidolon seems much more playable if you're in the market for this kind of effect.

    Flying and not costing any mana to get the second half, and getting it instantly. Honestly Sacred Cat looks like garbage to me, a 1/1 lifelink is just nothing on so many boards, even if you get another one straight after.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I disagree that you're meant to hold it. In my opinion, targetted discard gets much worse the later in the game you get, when players naturally have fewer cards in hand to hit. I think you'd want to try and play them as early as possible when your opponent's hand is fullest and you're more...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    They both seem pretty much unplayable unless your power is far below that of retail draft. From what I remember, Night Terrors was a card you were unhappy to play and Maw was a card that you never played. Could you explain what you mean by this? Maybe I'm falling into the trap you're...
