This is a thread to vote on and discuss what should be done with "lucky charms." Do you think they are powerful enough to keep around? Do you think their usefulness in teaching new players how to value cards should be enough to retain them? Should they just be abolished? Where do you stand on this issue?
For those who haven't seen the term, these cards are the ones that gain you life when certain colored spells are played. Throne of Bone and Iron Star are two of the classics that have been in every main set since Alpha. Recently WotC printed newer versions in Darksteel that look like they the new replacements to be rotated into Ninth Edition.
Many players have condemned these cards for being too weak. WotC has defended the cards, saying they play a useful role in teaching new players how to gauge power levels.
Ninth Edition will be the next Core Set to come out, sometime in 2005. With it will come the Core Game, which is a "newbie box" for beginners used to teach them the rules.
This vote will last for nine days from posting time.
Have fun discussing!
