I think giving Nixon 1 momentum token and changing the rules so that Nixon gets momentum on 0 might not be enough, but it would make the game much more competitive.

After more games, I came back to the conclusion the game is too lopsided. Even if Nixon needed just 4 momentum tokens, I would still rather play Editor. It's still fun to play and some games are exciting, but the advantage is big.

I went through my games and now I understand why I felt this way, it is kinda funny. My record as Editor: 12-2 My record as Nixon: 6-7 So it would seem Editor has an advantage, right? Well, let's look at my record based on opp's elo. Opp's Elo under 200: 18-1 (12 with Editor, 7 with Nixon) Opp's Elo...

I am either missing something or seeing something others aren't, but it seems really difficult to win as Nixon...

I really enjoy the game, but it seems to me that it is incredibly lopsided for Editor. Am I missing something?

There is a great variant of the game, where it ends not after all the cards are taken, but after just one line remains. Highly recommend including this variant here.

I just finished a game in just 8 turns

But yeah, 14 turns is definitely very long game. A game of 2 very good players will probably have 10-12 turns with average probably being slightly below 11 if not lower.

I just played a game that is a very good example of where you just ignore reputation after getting on the one that gives you 1 point: https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=412647971 46 points in 11 rounds is crazy good. Of course, stars really aligned in this one for me, but if I did not think much...

I went through a replay to get write down what is the distribution of cards for 2p game. If anyone would do the same for 3p and 4p, feel free to add it here
