My thoughts on this are a little muddled, so I have no strong direction on any argument here.

It used to be a bronze card is one you could only play twice, that provides nominal points or some utility contributing to point swings via synergies. Bronze cards felt very much in line with a range of points across factions.

As time progressed we’ve seen bronze cards that introduced what we consider power-creep. This is a natural evolution that happens in all ccg’s.

However with the introduction of new bronze cards that go well beyond the power threshold of the past, we face the problem of duplication. With all the new ways to duplicate powerful bronze cards, should there be another threshold or requirement to copy these cards?

Mushy Truffle, Garrison, Slave driver, Megascope, and teleportation (to a lesser extent), provide reliable ways to create extra copies, so the two-per-deck limit is kind of moot.

Let’s say you’re running reavers or sergeants or spotters or practitioners; should those be treated differently than, I don’t know, Tax Collectors? They’re clearly not the same in terms of power.

What does the two-per-deck limit really mean? I get that you’re dedicating provisions to duplicate these cards so maybe that balances it out?

Do we need a new level of bronze like rare bronze or epic bronze? Is there such a thing?

What really is the definition of a bronze card to you?
