It depends on your build but you get 2 cards for literally free, while still attacking/defending at a strength of 3. It will also delay the end of the duel as you have more cards added to your deck (assuming you don't die by bench before that) AND might even give you valuable cards that you already had anyway. Imagine it gives you another Stable Boy and you were going full on 3s, or it gives you a Butler so now you can clear your bench... If you don't like the cards, you are free to remove them after the duel anyway but the fact they're added "permanently" to your deck is very strong because you got more cards without having to draft them.

I've had one game where I had 2 UFOs, 3 Butlers and I forget if I had a few Sailors or Clairvoyants. Anyway, I could see my whole deck and control it, the UFOs kept giving me more cards and even gave me the 4th Butler. Very fun build.

UFO can also work very well with builds that have Submarine because you add cards at the bottom of your deck and Submarine exhausts the card at the bottom of your deck.
