Thanks for the information, very interesting change, especially the Mighty Chain. Looking forward to it. I guess the Q card will be more used, but solely for the purpose of Mighty Chaining. The change to the lead card effect itself doesn't hit the spot. Even if it generated 50 star right away, it would still feel like it's not worth it over Buster and Arts. Q problem is crappy dmg with effect that does not make up for it. IMO, Q cannot be saved as long as it is focusing on crit stars as this particular resource is not valuable enough for it to be the lowest damaging card. Arts should be the lowest dmg because the effect makes up for it - charging NP gauge, yummy. It would feel better to use a Q card if it actually dealt more dmg. Like, Q could be buffed by * 50%, so 120 144 168, but without changing the main 0.8 modifier to not break the NP calculations (maybe by adding one 0.4 hit to all Q card?). I would then consider and value much more the card when it shows up. As for the effect of selecting quick as leading card, something like increasing the hitcount of all selected cards without dmg increase would be interesting instead of the immediate 20 stars gen: an effect similar to the skill 2 of Miyamoto Musashi Berserker. It would anyway generate more stars as side effect, but it would also increase the NP gauge and enable many interesting combinations according to the different base hitcount of each servant's cards. It may be a bit busted, but it would feel better to see a Q card in hand and would really make it a valuable choice. A for NP gauge and regular dmg Q for hitcount and medium dmg B for max dmg but no resources generation Each choice would be valuable according to the situation, and the Q card retain its Crit Star value through its own natural increased generation rate and additional hits. The only other change I could see to make it neater and smoother is to get an EX atk from a random servant if you combine 3 different servant's card (no matter the card type). It would be easier to get EX atk on QQQ/BBB/AAA and make them worth to perform, because the Mighty Chain is kinda killing their dmg unless you can have 3 same cards from the same hero in hand. There would then be no hands where the choice is to pick the less bad combination with no special effect. But one can dream :)

The first thing that poped into my mind when I saw this was how this makes servants with scuffed decks so much better. Like Stheno and OG Abby. It looks like it helps solo servants a ton as well.

This'll probably buff her play style allowing her to do what she always did. It'll help her QAB a lot more as well.

KZfaq being dumb lol

With a quick np yes since that adds np gain and damage, arts maybe for the extra damage, and buster no unless the np has an absurd amount of hits like emiya's.

@@poke_dragon24 I'm having trouble understanding what you're referring to and also no clue what the hitcount has to do with anything. NPs are not affected by card chains.

@@Mitsunee_ wait nps don't get affected by the chain? If they don't then I'm an idiot and my entire comment means nothing, but if nps are affected then basically I meant a quick np will benefit from the bonus attack and np compared to any other chain, arts nps will get extra damage while the star gen up doesn't matter much, and a low hit buster np would always prefer to have a buster chain but one with maybe 5+ hits will generate some stars with the star gen increase so the chain has less utility than with the other np types.

What the Mighty Chain does is it grants the First Card Bonus to all cards in the chain. However NPs have never been affected by First Card Bonus, the NP Card (of any type) should be used first in the Mighty Chain.

@@poke_dragon24 NPs are not affected by card effects.

Skill CDR is gonna make Solo Cursed Arm Hassan a god lol
