Given the number of cards that are so hard to rate without seeing the full cycle, it may be worth having a look back at the packs in a later episode (ie one released after the 6th chapter pack).
Yeah... these are the bumps and bruises that come along with any new cycle that introduces a new concept. I found a lot of the new Naval enhancement dependent cards to be useless without knowing what else was coming out. It's not too often that a new concept has enough support until we see the rest of the cycle. It's a shame. :-(
About Blood Orange Grove: taking away shadow crest can be helpful since the shadow rules forbid a card without shadow crest from going into shadows. So you can use it to kill the likes of Arya/Meera/Preston in a correct situation. Also there has been another crest removal card, but it is more situational and not costed well so it sees barely any play - Veteran Knight.
Using BOG to remove Ser Robert Strong's shadow crest to prevent this will be just as strong.
It's an amazing effect but it's cost is a little too high for the risk that actually comes along with playing it.
Also, just wondering if you ever credited the listener who suggested the name "The Painted Table"? (clears throat) Or maybe you had the idea before I even suggested it... It's late and I'm full of myself.
Great reviews guys. They are positive and supportive of the game as a whole. Some reviews I read/hear/watch make me wonder why some people still play the game.
Thanks for that.
