Thread: 5.0 AST is a failure

They could remove "Play" and let Draw recharge once while holding the current card indefinitely. Same result, more hotbar space, less button presses.

And a hell of a lot smoother to utilize.

What happens when Draw has fully recharged but you still hold the last card?
Does pressing that button use the card, or draw a new one to overwrite?
What if I would like either option depending on the circumstances?

You use the card.

Theres still undraw for that.

So we'd all need to put Undraw back on our hotbars? (it's currently completely useless)
So... you're not freeing up any skill slots.

Undraw is still needed regardless of which Card system you're using, it's an essential tool in our kit due to the nature of the system. Adding Play as a separate skill made absolutely no sense just like every other changes they made to the this bloody class.

There's no use to Undraw. At all.

Minor Arcana makes an unwanted card useful.
Before Minor Arcana, you'll just wait for Draw/Redraw to cooldown (you'll have to anyway) then overwrite your undesired card with a new one.

If I'm guessing correctly, you're thinking that it's like 4.x AST whereby Draw & Play is one button? Well it's a separate button now. So if you're holding a card, Play would use it. Draw will overwrite it.
