Look, I won't ask for any leaks of names, special abilities, or new types of cards.

All I want to know is whether there is a tiny symbol or a tiny letter in the lower left corner.

Considering that Rob set the set is not a starter deck (tiny letter) or a booster set (tiny symbol), I would guess that even if you knew the answer to this question, it wouldn't tell you much :)

Its a tiny symbol.

I might as well spoil this now and say that one of the Dominants' abilities is to go through my own deck and discard another one of my Dominants.  I had to fight Bryon to make sure it didn't say two.
Yeah, the new "Bragging Rights" evil dominant was so much more meaningful when it discarded two of your own dominants out of your deck.  For some reason, Schaef didnt' think anyone would use it unless it only discarded one of your own dominants.  Apparently Schaef thought that discarding one dominant and all of your heroes was good enough.   ::)

I still think "Search your deck for all characters and 2 dominants.  Discard them." was perfect.  Oh, well.

All I know is that I think Zeb decks would be a lot easier to manage if people would just put cards in their own decks that are beneficial to my defense against Zeb.

All I have to say is that I've loved every card in this game (even Buckler) so I don't doubt this set might be a little sneaky, but fun and creative. That might make me a nerd, but I also don't care.

Given the lack of consensus here and among the playtesters, I have decided to leave things alone for the remainder of this tournament season.  We have some new cards coming in the next set that will affect this type of combo and it's not a piece of cake to pull off at any rate.  We can revisit the issue if needed after Nationals and after the new cards make their way into decks.  BTW, I doubt that many of you will add in the cards from the 2009 set.   

So, thanks for all the input.  It was helpful to me.

Rob
Thank you very much sir! I want to thank you for listening to our thoughts and for making that conclusion. I, among others, am very glad to hear this. ;D
