Im going to take some creative license, and reference the famous quote by United States Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart: I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be embraced within that shorthand description [HP/Damaged cards], and perhaps I could never succeed in intelligibly doing so
It's best in a deck that uses Transmodify, but it's still pretty bad
Before we get to the expensive shiny cards, you need to recognize the cards that fill 90% of your packs
Similarly, where red would deal damage to players, black's abilities typically cause direct loss of life
there are fewer overall valuable reprints, but the ones that hit really matter, and many of the new cards are sure to have homes in existing shells
This, in turn, has created a current meta of single-type decks that focus on getting the strongest hitter for the lowest energy cost possible in their Active position
