So where has this thing been on the competitive scene? Frankly, besides the Resource removal, I don’t see many technicalities that could be wrong with it. It’s a pretty ingenious farming technique, especially if you use Troublemakers that benefit you and you wouldn’t normally use for farming. And you can play leapfrog with a Troublemaker, jumping from Problem to Problem. You can get rid of your own Troublemakers and get points when your opponent doesn’t want to. A smaller Troublemaker like Winterzilla can be boosted to 7 power while a higher Troublemaker like the Pony of Shadows (even if it is already Epic) can be boosted to 10.

And just to recap, this can all be done for a minimum of 1-2 AT. Moving a Troublemaker can be useful when your opponent sets themselves up to continually confront a Problem and avoid your Troublemaker. But then there’s the other part: during your Main Phase, you can pay 1 AT to move that Troublemaker. You can turn non-Epic Troublemakers into Epic Troublemakers to farm for your own gain. Epic Troublemakers can be challenged by either player and are usually associated with big villains like the Pony of Shadows or the Legion of Doom. (No opposing Troublemakers will be sporting this thing!) There are two parts to this Amulet: first, it makes the host Troublemaker Epic and gives it +3 power. You play the Amulet on any of your Troublemakers. This costs 1 AT, 1 Purple req, and 1 White req, which is… amazingly cheap for a Resource of this rarity. Just put one of these on and you too can be a highest level unicorn! There aren’t a lot of Resources you can play on Troublemakers, and this one might be the most powerful of them all.

Now to continue with business as usual one last time here in The Di-Light Zone. Today we’re covering Marks in Time with a Resource that seems like a prime farming tool… I’m surprised I haven’t seen more of it.

And because of that, I cannot wait to share with you all this archive of writings that I have been working long hours on! I’ve fostered it for too long to let it go this easily. During class sessions, showers, viewings of my favorite shows… I’ve thought about how I don’t just want to end Card Shark. I don’t know when everything will be finished, but I want everyone to know that Card Shark has never left my mind.

I have decided that since we are moving on to cards labelled as legal in the current Core format, it would be fitting to continue writing about them on the new site. This will be the final Shark I post to The Di-Light Zone. After that? I’ll see where my writings and the cards take me.īut with that comes an announcement.

I also have a certain card I want to write about for my birthday, even though it will be long past my birthday. I am going to finish the Holiday Dumpster Fire Card-a-Thon, even though we are well past the holidays. I’ve also been applying to internships as they are vital in the field of work I intend to enter - and got approved for one starting this June, which I am over the moon about! But add all that to some stressful family and social events - surgeries, layoffs, online feuds - and you have another extended Shark break! Building a website with many multilayered tags for organization purposes is harder than it sounds. Happy 2021 everycreature! I know it’s been a while since the last Holiday Dumpster Fire Shark - and my website still isn’t finished yet - so you may be asking yourself, “what in Equestria is happening?!”
