Random Cards Were The Only Reason AST Felt Good/Different

[IDontPetLalas]

Thinking about this, I would put my thoughts on current Astro cards like this?

* I like the idea behind randomization affecting the cards.
* Every single implementation of it so far has been disappointing, lame, laughable or ridiculous.
* Hence, the current non-random system is by far the best version yet, even if on paper I dislike it. Unlike all the other attempts, this one actually works, so it wins by default.

I would prefer at least 2 of the prior versions of AST to this version. What would you see as being "lame, laughable or ridiculous" in the prior versions, considering that they were functional as well. I'm not ignoring that SE had to put in a hotfix on at least one occasion.

So I would definitely prefer Stormblood, or Shadowbringers. You're really saying that DT wins out over these because they fall into one or more of the "disappointing, lame, laughable or ridiculous categories?
