Comment about my favorite part of the article: Does anyone remember the On the Lamb/Panic+Shining Trapezohedron combo? A bit more involved but if you cannot stop it Panic+Forgotten Shoggoth+Smuggler makes angels cry. Oh yea, All Are One...

Yeah. Just imagine that all the articles include: "BTW, Panic is awesome." It would be true, but also a bit boring. While I often -subconciously- steer in the direction of Panic, I try to avoid it unless it's really necessary. :P

Don't get me wrong, Other cards can work the strategy well. For example, if you take events that Syndicate has to control opponent's Characters like Intimidate, Low Blow, and Panic with this sort of YogSyn recursion combo things get interesting. The ability to play these cards over and over as part of a core control/evade strategy is a nifty little mechanic. Now all the boys in the backroom need is a Gangster's Moll to help bring down the house! gui%C3%B1o.gif

Yeah, but still, Panic is my favorite card ever. There is a lot of cool stuff to play over and over again though... Almost as good as Panic kind of cards... :D
