Option to ban "U.E.S. Zudov 2056-G (swapping card)

Post by ZguZimZguZa »

U.E.S. Zudov 2056-G
"exchange this card with any other card on your board"

There were sooooo many games that were so boring / ruined because of this card
Please add an option to ban this card as well... it it way to overpowered

…and then ban the next most overpowered card…

…and then ban the next most overpowered card…

…and then ban the next most overpowered card…

ad nauseum

Every time a game ‘bans’ what some players consider “the most powerful card” all it does is move the second most powerful card up to become the new most powerful card, and we just repeat the cycle.

Why not remove one or more aces from a standard deck when playing blackjack, because… you know.

Yeah, lets remove all the arrow cards while we're at it, cause you know, if someone gets all of them, and deploys all of them, its almost an instant win!

I don't think they can chain at least on BGA, I tried once.

They absolutely do chain, and I've won many a game from lucking into getting them all.

They definitely chain. What yu CAN'T do is activate the same sector twice in the same turn for any reason.

But, yes, you can activate everything from 7 to 12 if you have all the arrows and roll a 7 or 12.

if the game can be won purely on one card... then yea, it is to OP
And I am saying that they should add an "option" to ban it
so if you like to play with this card in your game, go ahead
but let others then make games that this card can be banned (same as they did with the Gordon card)

You can't win the game with just the swap card.

The Gordon card is also a mix of an annoyance factor and also lengthening game time. It’s about the only ‘take that’ card in the deck.

Am I living in a black hole? I cannot recall ever seeing a card that allowed me to swap this card with any other card. Sounds like a fun one, but how have I missed it?
