Thoughts

Does any of this count? People will adjust to the stupidity of The Fantasticar but there's no way that card isn't getting restricted by the end of the year. My only complaint is that it is taking away from the real things that the Vintage B&R list should worry about. But people say Doomsday is a fairly good matchup against The Car. Just maybe cut Flow State right now and play a faster game.
