Give this to Parallel Roland (yes, he of the Directives) and you can start a campaign/standalone on 8xp.... making him 7-5 (I would assume, unless you're leaning into immediate Desperate cards)
I'd be interested to see what the community can build, on 8xp starting...
:)
I want to love this card. It feeds my munchkin brain in a good way!
In theory, even if you buy cards that are new for your deck, it will still be worth it if your original decklist features enough upgradeable cards.
For every 2 upgraded cards, a new card can be added while maintaining advantage. If you want to have the highest experience advantage, you need 14 upgrade cards in a regular 8 game campaign. If you merely want to stay neutral or above, then you'd be able to add 13 card in the same scenario. That would make you gain 14 upgrade exp with a 13 exp penalty for adding new cards (which would still be net-positive).
This card rewards pre-emptive planning and deckbuilding and gives more experience very early on.
MJ Newman has screwed us again!
The uninitiated may think that this is the opening for Rogues or Rogue-secondaries to get more value out of Charon's Obol, but little do they know that this is actually a buff to Ursula Downs!
How could they do this to us? Seekers buffed yet again?!?!?!??!!?!?!
For me: card is good, but not for every character. If you have <4exp cards that you need most, take it (Calvin loves it)

The discard effect makes this an absolutely God tier card for William Yorick or any survivor who can get Scavenging or the level two version of Scavenging. Also since this is a survivor card Resourceful works also!
