    Nathaniel Cho is, in my book, the most enjoyable fighter.
    Every card drawn gives you new options, while other fighters just use their weapons and (sometimes) manage ammo.

      Some of the most fun I’ve ever had with this game is running with a Jenny Barnes deck. I think people bash on her a bit too much, building around someone who just gets resources and then can pay to buff stats she needs is awesome.

    I played Gloria for 2 scenarios in expert Innsmouth and then swapped her out, because it was ridiculous. We were not playing Arkham, we were playing a walking simulator.
    I would have liked to see the wilson combat deck :) Same about parallell Skids, because ours were boring as hell and he is benched now.

    Guys. I'm scowering through this Arkham Horror lcg stuff like crazy and i haven't even played a game! I have 2 boxes of the original core set and the old dunwhich box with all mythos. Is it still recommended to grab the revised core set? If not for the improved instructions? What do you guys think 🤔

    13 cards of Sefina’s 33(+5) is 34% of her deck.
    10 cards of an ordinary investigator’s 30(+2) is 31% of their deck.
    And an ordinary investigator initially only gets to see 5 and may erringly mulligan into a weaker hand by accident.
    And, she comes with 3 Studious.
    I can understand how Sefina’s mulligan may feel bad when you’re used to swapping out the bad cards in your hand, but I’m struggling to follow how it’s actually worse.

    • @PlayingBoardGames
      @PlayingBoardGames  Před měsícem +1

      As I say whenever I talk about it, it's not statistically worse, but in all the games I've seen with people playing Sefina, she misses on her opening hand more than she hits. Her style of play is very fragile and breaks easily and that starts with her inability to mulligan. Basically, there's a reason why her power level isn't high and this is one of them.

      @@DrDifra It's definitely not as strong as going hard on his brain score, there's no denying that, but it's very hard for multiple builds to be equally strong. But there are a lot of neat things you can do building around book and Luke's abilities (look at the new card from Hemlock Vale that allows you to investigate all adjacent locations as an example).
