My initial thoughts: 1. Some of these cards are very strong for example that harbor card that makes all nobles safe. The thought of having a bunch of safe Cesares running round will give me nightmares tonight lol. The thing is there is a LOT more cards that have the erase memory effect now so i guess thats supposed to deal with it.. though it does seem strong for an uncommon card.

Oh man, losing faith: erase all copies of card in opponent's sequence, hand, archive with same name. I will get my revenge on you yet ESR decks.

Playing through the single player missions, initial thoughts: 1) Synergy, synergy, synergy. The team must have heard the Lonely Island song... "promote synergy! Like a bauss!" new synergies seem to have super raw power, making synergy strategies possibly stronger than any existing strategies (cards) 2) holy crap the new surprise animation scared the crap out of me. And I can't seem to open the card that's being launched. That's just super irritating. 3) people can stop bitching about counters now, there are a million new anti counter cards. So be prepared for it if you feel so strongly about them 4) drawing power seems to have become more available for all colours 5) look carefully at the card types, seems they've re-classified a lot of them, for example the churches seem to be sanctuaries now, for big synergy potential. 6) the meta's gonna change big time! Exciting stuff! 7) I feel the new cards are powerful, but they're less "raw power" than some of the oldies. So they're expensive cards with cool effects. Income management and denial just got much more important! 8) browse the market to see the new cards that you don't have!

I think the new cards add a great amount of flavor, but the way Surprises resolve now make them much better than they used to. The effect of the card is now instantaneous, they just stay in place for the same amount of time that they used to, though.
This means that you can still counter something even with just a tenth of a second from card resolution. That's a HUGE change.

Yeh, I noticed the suprise thing too mistervader. That's cool. I haven't played much yet, but two early thoughts spring to mind, from just browsing cards:
Any deck that doesn't pack anti site could be an insta loss... Rushing just got super strong...
