⚖️ Changes
• Cards now go into the "Play Pile" when you play them. All cards in the Play Pile are discarded at the end of your turn.
◦ This change aims to balance powerful draw abilities like Spark and Teapot that were creating infinites too easily. It also creates fun opportunities for new cards that interact with the Play Pile such as Volley.
◦ Shoutout to @Dp101, @MelficeBelmont, @PuszekSE, @RabbitOfCaernabog, @JeBus, @Stardust974, @DemonLLama, @Arthune, and everyone else who contributed to the discussion on Discord!
