Plan.Ferry works in the way that Alms works, by having a similar effect without technically working. Plan doesn't work at all? Unless you just mean that it lets you do something different/new on the first 2 turns.. but it doesn't change what you can afford on turn 2.Ferry lets you open 0/6 or 0/5. Plan (and Bonfire, actually) don't change split values, but do change deck compositions after the first shuffle.

Witherweaver is a smart person.
Quote from: senneth on November 22, 2017, 02:14:42 amIf you start with 2 coin your next hand has 5 coin. If you start with 5 coin your next hand has two coin. Seems consistent.My take is that this is true whenever it is true, and false whenever it is false.

Remember that Platinum/Platinum was a popular opening on isotropic for a few hours.

Bomb, Cannon, and many of the Gunpowder cards can strongly effect gameplay, particularly in a destructive way

It’s like the Dire Straits song. I never understood what advantage there was to getting chicks for free; if you were also getting money for nothing.
