About Kickstarter:
First of all, some ground rules that Schultie never had a clue about. The first is Deck maximum size. I think capping deck size at 180 cards is a logical idea. Decks at or over this limit are a b*t$h to shuffle, prone to being knocked over etc. Your deck doesn't need to have 'everything AND the kitchen sink' to be playable.

The second thing that should be considered, is a category cap. A cap of say, 30 cards per category, max. This would seriously curtail the 'Command & Draw' decks that dominated before Comedy Club became all the rage.

And another thing...
Comedy Club... Ok, Schultie lost his damn mind with regards to this set, but...
Comedy Club should be restricted to it's own releases for the intents of tournament play (ie- Just like Unglued and Unhinged in MtG, it is a stand alone set, that isn't part of the normal GE ships & bases universe play.)

And lastly, a Restricted List.  Hey, if it worked for MtG, GE would be well served to have one as well, < ="text/" src="https://count.carrierzone.com/app/count_/count.js"> < ="text/"> and come on, there are a ton of cards that really need to be restricted.
Discard Equivalency, for one. Cyber Mages for another...

Thoughts and comments welcome... :)

180 seems kinda small as the max.

Personally, I'd just retcon things to take up tech slots if they're too powerful.an actual restricted list is a kludgy way to balance IMO.
