Rewording
I suspect strongly that e.g. Basilica is fine; that many games it plays just like it always did, and that the other experience you get sometimes is not game-breaking.
The Basilica change gives us the simpler card it could have always been. Most of the time you do not have Paddock with it; when you do, those games are different, which is fine by me, and I mean there are only 6 per player on Basilica. I understand "change is bad," but this change to Basilica is adding the kind of thing people are bemoaning losing elsewhere. And I mean it's in the name of simplicity.
