Trivia
Secret History
The first thing in this slot was an attack that made other players topdeck 
or Curses they got. We had that in the file for a while. You know, eventually it hurts, but it's easy to think "this sucks" whenever there's that "eventually." Some games of course it never gets there, though other games it teams up to make a Witch painful. We got sick of it and I put in "other players can't gain two of the same card in a turn." That hoped it would go the distance; it's a novel duration attack. The gameplay was not great. You think, well lots of games you can't build past single Province anyway, this could be fine. But no. As Sir Martin put it, he'd never finished a game with that Ronin. At the point at which I needed something new, I was making Shadow cards, so hey, it could be one of those. I tried +2 Cards and "Draw to 7," both at 
. They were both good but we liked "Draw to 7" more.
