peanutbutteregg, the game is balanced so that no card is dominant. There is a counter for everything, and everything has its strengths and weaknesses. Probably the best idea is to find cards that counter popular characters, like Rathbone.
This game is amazing! It is very self explanatory thanks to the icons and organization. However, there is also a lot of in-depth strategy and tactics involved. The characters are perfectly balanced, and all of the features fit perfectly. I am looking forward to any new additions to this very fine game. I have just one complaint, though. I think that earning cards should be based on ranking up or trading, something other than a minute chance.
