The White Book S6E4- 214

The White Bookd Podcast Kennon

Due to a series of unfortunate technical events this week, Will solos through the neutrals in the Second Edition Core set. On the plus side, you only have to set aside about half an hour for this week’s episode!

You can find the episode on the old RSS feed and here at CGDB.

But beware! I won't be double posting episode much longer, so make sure that you've been to the new site and subscribed to the new direct feed located at the bottom.

Will, your dream of being able to use Seal of the Hand on Sansa is further hindered by her "once per round" limiter. So even if she were a legal target for the attachment, not as sweet a deal as you'd like.

See? So tempting, and so close to being cool, but so far away...

She is a great character. Just gotta make sure she stays away from the Plaza of Punishment. And Swords.

And Theon Greyjoy.
I mean, not mechanically. Just in a general sense.

Congrats on undertaking this by yourself Will, for a one-man cast it came out very well.

 

There are some cards I disagree with the rating of (most notably Hand's Judgement), but only two I was actually baffled by - you basically say Roseroad and Kingsroad are 3x autoincludes in every deck, then proceed to them C+ and B? Surely you just gave the definition of an A card?

I mentioned this in the comments thread to last week's episode. I really don't think we can rate the base econ cards in the core set the way we do other cards. The main deck building question, in my experience, out of the core set is the way the limited economy shapes the gold curve. This fact of life and cardpool merits a different type of discussion than letter grades can give us.
