Blink is the enabler for most of of that counter generation. In the past it was extremely difficult to even get a single extra resource point. Blink handing them out like candy breaks the fundamental mechanic of 1-resource-per-turn. Without Blink, those effects become manageable.<br /><br />So while I realize no one plays an abusive build in our group, the window is there for it to be done. Unless the council comes up with something better, she stays banned.Obsidian3Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03987358994076703659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28027315.post-53503156302179003102009-06-22T10:47:20.247-06:002009-06-22T10:47:20.247-06:00I understand Charles current position on this.

I hope that they come up with something that is fair and still allows her to be played. Maybe then Charles will change it from a ban to an errata.Roynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28027315.post-25106693940125859642009-06-20T13:47:10.035-06:002009-06-20T13:47:10.035-06:00yeah i did mean recruit. my bad. it was really lat...yeah i did mean recruit. my bad. it was really late when i wrote that..Vernnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28027315.post-70652609986368250362009-06-20T11:43:05.223-06:002009-06-20T11:43:05.223-06:00Uh Vern thats what the card currently says I think...Uh Vern thats what the card currently says I think you mean recruit.Harrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28027315.post-36678793775356666262009-06-20T02:29:59.471-06:002009-06-20T02:29:59.471-06:00i do agree with jon.

Also, that is the only version of the three drop blink, so now its stupid to make a blink legend. I also think that other version of exiles cannot be played effectively, as they need extra resources to pay for effects. And honestly, I think that Blink was never the problem with exiles, it was cards like Mariko or Sasquatch that needed fixing.jonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28027315.post-57269868271364170592009-06-18T11:02:13.820-06:002009-06-18T11:02:13.820-06:00......jonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28027315.post-7152601708324895332009-06-18T10:44:17.887-06:002009-06-18T10:44:17.887-06:00But who will be Jonathan's 3 drop now :(But who will be Jonathan's 3 drop now :(Harrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28027315.post-85088616008637529672009-06-17T14:03:17.400-06:002009-06-17T14:03:17.400-06:00Wow first in-house banned Card.
