All the lessons learned have been forgotten. My counsel was ignored when the mistakes were made in the first place. Now the lessons have been forgotten again.
Darth Andeddu's Holocron (A)
Dreshdae Sith Academy
Darth Bane's Flier (A)
Discuss.
Hints:
[I'll give you a little secret about how the two sides operate for game balance that was learned the hard way after I was previously ignored: Dark Side should be designed for first-strike offense with slower, more vulnerable, more expensive cards, while Light Side should have faster, more durable units with better build economy. Why? Because Dark Side builds and plays first. When you go against that, you skew the power in Dark Side's favor. To understand this better, see my articles:
Light Side - Shore Up Your Defenses!
Dark Side - Tax Their Defenses!]
[Also, no matter how you design a unit recursion effect, except when unit-specific, it always becomes abusive. The solution was to put it in your build zone, instead, with 1 build counter on it.]
[Another secret is that no matter how you design a Mission-fetching effect, it always becomes abusive regardless of disrupts.]
