As fun as the ability on Blindness is, I'm pretty sure Flying Scroll is going to end up in a lot of my decks... 8)

I think Unsuccessful will be very strong.  3 of per deck in T2 (1 brigade curse) and always being able to end the battle in a stalemate is very strong.  Also the curse half being able to negate gives good options.

Unknown Nation has been my favorite since it came out. It still remains my top choice, but with the others coming onto the scene it has some stiff competition and will require me to rethink my choices.

Godspeed,
Mike

To add to that, Balaam can recur it. While Balaam will prevent it, so he can't use it, so long as you have some other way to win battles with Balaam, it'll be pretty scary how often Unsuccessful could come up in a single game.

Flying scroll helps counter the game-winning cards like Bab Merchants and Jonah. That's always a win in my book.

Flying Scroll is my favorite artifact side and Blindness is my favorite enhancement side. Unsuccessful isn't as flashy or unique as those two but it's a super solid card. It makes me happy as a deck builder that my answer to this poll wasn't immediately obvious.

Obviously the poll was about the 8 new Curses (or new versions of old Curses).

Clearly RBD is far and away the best of all the Curses  8)

Personally I like any curse that Balaam can get back from the discard. But my al time favourite is CwD. But in that list pros unsuccessful

I really like the rework of Flying Scroll. Much better than the way it used to be! But I must ask why black/brown was chosen as the brigades over something like gold/gray (what I would consider 'thieves' brigades thanks to deck/hand discard themes)?

Unsuccessful is another Gam's Speech in that it can negate either alignment when played. Seems really good, but I suppose Curses have a lot of counters already.

Love the updated look on all of these curses- very nice! I would not have guessed the original art on Blindness would actually look good, but it does!

Your help with the improved art on the phase 1 Curses played in big part in the inspiration for the phase 2 Curses. Thanks, Josh!

I like them all!  I am kinda partial to Blindness b/c of the artifact ability.  It's unique.  I wish the enhancement side was something like "Negate other Enhancements (except orange)."  But it's a nice Shimei's Malicious Curse / Bringing Fear FBTN-kinda enhancement as-is.
