FAQ

Q: Just to clear things up: one use of upped, restricted shards is worth four upgrades (one for the upgrade, three for the shard restriction), correct?
A: Yes.

Q: Once the potluck rules are decided, will any cards which are obviously OP in the mini meta be banned?
A: Only if absolutely neccessary.
