event-attack
name:look a distraction
cost 1
all your opponents shuffle his discard pile into his deck +buy

or all your opponents put there deck into the discard pile +buy

this would be for those players who are not only counting there own cards but are counting there opponents as well triggering a reshuffle or making them trigger a reshuffle
what do you think about an attack like this?

I'm not sure this is really much of an attack at all. If anything, it advantages the opponent by speeding up their deck cycling and getting their new buys in play fAster. This wouldn't undo their top decking either, since they will have already drawn it. offering opponents this "attack" might be a good weak consolation prize for an event with a strong boon to the player though.

Also, events can't really be attacks, because you never "play" them.

it called expert level bc you need 2 be good at knowing when a reshuffle would hurt an opponent like if they have a goons and familiar potion in hand with 10 cards in the discard if he plays the familiar he probably wont get it and the goons for 2 more turns but if he just buys a familiar he will likely get 1 familiar in the next turn
also it could help if this was a reaction when an opponents card would go in the discard you may discard 2 cards if you do he shuffles his deck into his discard and puts it all in his deck

I think a way to make this a bit stronger as an attack would be something like inn, but one that compels your opponents to shuffle pull the victory cards (or something else bad) out of their discard and shuffle them into their deck. This way the attack is thinning out the opponent's deck and not instead empowering it by cycling good cards back in faster. Of course, an attack like that would have to cost significantly more.
