    • Experimenting with different card combinations is also important to find what works best for you.

What Is Discard Ability? 

One of the first things we will need to discuss will be entailing towards the discard ability itself. In short terms, the discard ability simply removes a random or a centric card from the payer’s deck during the middle of a game. 

There will be general discard cards, which will grant players a bit of power in exchange for their cards, while there will also be cards that will simply take away the cards, but the good thing will be that the player will be informed ahead of time that they will be rid of their card.
