Melitele is hot garbodom. When the card was first revealed, it seemed like an excellent addition. Unique ability, amazing art. Upon further inspection and actual playtesting, it's buns.

When I read, "At the start of the round restart the cycle, I thought it meant it would trigger one of its three abilities at the start of each round. I'm thinking, "Not bad. It's like better priestess. If you shuffle it enough times during a game, you could spawn a couple six or seven prov units, and get double Meve value."

That is not how it works.

The text should be changed to say reset the cycle. Because that's what it actually does, and it's shit. That means, you have to shuffle this card back into your deck (which implies you have to draw it first) at least 4 times each round, to get basic value. And it's also actually anti-synergystic with the priestesses.

Now maybe I'm trash, and I'm building/piloting the decks wrong, but this card felt like Ildiko, Meve, and Traveling Priestess mashed together on paper. It feels like a bricked Roach in practice. You'd expect a 14 provision carryover card, to be good carryover.
