Would it be in our best interest to change anything more significant than a card game? Seems like that would be an interesting discussion for another thread... ::)

Only here can a debate about a card turn into a philosophical discussion over the effects of time travel.

Anyways back on topic for me, I like NJ.  Its just another thing I can choose to try and stop with specific cards or I can choose to not focus on NJ and instead focus on stopping a persons characters more.  Its all strategy and that is what makes the game fun.  There is nothing better then using confusion on someones SoG while they are holding NJ in there hand.

We could limit the number of dominants per deck to say 8.

this is a very good idea that i've been a strong advocate towards for years. its an easy solution that'll lessen the amount of dominants being played while also abiding by the no-ban policy. however, 8 is still far too many...i say 5 tops for type 1. sog/nj/aotl/cm are pretty staple, then one more slot thats geared towards your deck. don for art destruction? fa for defense? it'll make dominant selection more diverse.

and remember...88 miles per hour and the flux capacitor will kick in :)

I disagree I think 5 is not enough because many people would consider bot DoN and FA staples for their deck and would want at least 6, I think 8 at least but I am against limiting Dominants because I don't see how "game breaking" they are.  Everyone in my play group has a NJ and I don't see a lot of games decided by it alone, and I see it stopped several times by things like confusion, Altar of Ahaz etc.  I guess I don't see the issue...

Ok, so should we bann Son of God from type 2 just to be fair. They made the cards so they could be played in all the games. Type 1 or 2.

I hereby recommend this thread for lock, as it doesn't belong in this particular forum, and the original question/poll has been answered by Rob.

you have no idea how many times I've played Zeal on Phinehas (or any other CBN battlewinner) to win the battle only to have the only available LS buried, or be given half of the 2-liner and then have it buried, or be given a LS and have it Falling Away'd, or have Phinehas get CM'd, or have Unknown Nation used on me because I didn't have DoN to kill it, or to have my opponent use SoG+NJ to rescue a shuffler or the only two LSs available in their LoB, or...
All of those scenarios you mentioned used dominants...
