Board Game Arena

I don’t have specific thoughts on which weak cards could be banned, but I’m very much in favor of having a weak card ban list option! That’s essentially what I do for in-person games — I have a weak card ban list, then play draft 7/7 rather than 7/8 like I do online. Looking at one fewer card slight...

I strongly disagree with the idea of adding elo decay and removing the ability to filter from arena with red thumbs. Others have already spoken as to why these are bad ideas, but just wanted to add my voice in opposition. Especially with red thumbs, getting rid of them will make Arena mode terrible ...

Idk if this is the best place to bring this up, but just wanted ...

Just adding my voice to the chorus that wants Big Country and Begging Student banned. Mostly Big Country, because regardless of how powerful it is, I don't find it fun to play with it or against it. It's just too game-warping.
