Pincer Manoeuvre

Dan

Hello! We've got three new Crustaceans cards, and about time too. Crustaceans, as a collection, has until today been regarded as *checks notes* so bad I actually would give them to my worst enemy, but only so that I could apologise and we could learn mutual respect and bond over our hatred of the Crustaceans collection.

NO LONGER! The new Blue Crayfish card will give all your Crustaceans extra Power if you've played Sapphire beforehand, and it can be the nucleus of a solid Crustaceans package in your decks. Maybe there's something you could do with Hippocampus? Get a little half-and-half Oceans/Life on Land action going? Little bit of Surf 'n' Turf? I can't build decks, but I sure can name 'em.

We've also got our next Fancy Fashions card, Platform Shoe, a card that will BURN three random cards (one of which is guaranteed to be in your opponent's hand) for two turns and (don't you dare say something trite like "put this in your deck to lift your chances of victory" - Ed.).

...

No, it won't lift your chances of victory. There's a good chance it burns two cards in your own hand. But it comes in a pack that's got a guaranteed Limited Epic for a decent price, and you might want to get it anyway. Try to have a bit of fun with it!
