This is a very decent fate card.
Just 1 blip drives me mad!
The fact that this card only has a single Force Icon seems silly... The set only has 6 of them but it's themed around gambling. Where is the ace up your sleeve? Love the effect, but it should have at least 2, if not 3, Force Icons. That, or give Lando and Sabacc Shift +1 Icon each.
The low icons is literally the reason I will not play this set much. Everything else about this set would be awesome if it wasn't so low in edge battles. Such a disappointment to see such a neat set be pulled down by something like that.
I can't see this ever being a competitive set, but I agree the terrible edge count makes it a big liability even in casual play.
Fate card with only 1 blip that doesn't have the ability to turn a edge battle on it's head (supporting fire, prince's scheme..) is madness.
Yeah, it hurts especially because this will very often be blank.
It really should have two, or even three pips, since it doesn't help you win the edge, but the effect is still good. As far as the lack of icons go, I could see the cards in the set pulling their weight beyond their edge count. Put down the Herglic and name "Twist of Fate." You see what cards they can put into the edge battle *and* they lose any twists in their hand. Lando also can be used to make them get rid of cards, making the edge battles easier. And of course Sabaac Shift makes them lose their hand and redraw.
