A powerful card with a supremely expensive cost. Most people will say "Why bother?" and if you are designing your deck in a vaccuum, it probably will be over looked for some other great toys.

But in multiplayer, you can be the supreme support character with a copy or two of this. If you can stomach the xp cost, this card will make your Guardian and Mystics more consistent, allow your Rogues to pull that game breaking combo or just save someone's skin at just the right moment.

Really, this card feels maybe 1 xp too much, but it also is pretty amazing. Fast, during anyone's turn find the solution to a problem for just two resources.

It is hard to argue with it. I think if you are leaning more into a support role, this is your endgame. This card will make your team love you and will allow you to pull some of the best tricks the game can offer.

So yeah, support/10. I think its a home run in multiplayer.

This card can target any card in a players deck, including weaknesses. This aspects usefulness depends on the weakness in question:

• Some weakness do nothing, when drawn early: Abandoned and Alone, Shell Shock, Crisis of Identity
• Some are trivial when the party is spread out: Searching for Izzie, Smite the Wicked
• Some weaknesses need time before they can be solved, so it's important to draw them before the mid game: Hospital Debts, Cover Up, Baron Samedi, Angered Spirits
• Others require some preperation: Any enemy weakness, Overzealous, The King in Yellow, Final Rhapsody
• Some should be killed over and over for story reasons: spoiler

Other combos:

• Get powerful signature cards into play early: Green Man Medallion, Spirit-Speaker, Split the Angle
• Save deck space by including only 1 copy of unique or limited assets, like Lone Wolf, Dark Horse or Leo De Luca
• Can be copied wtih Eidetic Memory
• Gets better with more players, as the target card pool gets bigger and with that, solutions to challenges
• Can be played in any player window, including skill tests during mythos phase. This may save a player, as he could search his deck for the appropriate skill icons, like Guts against Rotting Remains

At the time of writing this had only been out a few days - and I've used it in 3 games...

This card is quietly awesome - if you, or a fellow investigator, have another card that you really need.

It's not flashy. It isn't fancy. There's no cool combos I can see. Letting someone draw any card from a deck doesn't seem that spectacular. But...

• your Guardian needs his Shotgun - fixed.
• Minh needs her Analytical Mind - no problem.
• Your mystic needs a Shrivelling right now, okay ... done.

No fuss, no worries about weaknesses or where it is in the deck, just for 2 resources take any card. It doesn't even cost you an action.

Okay, that is spectacular.

The down side is that 5 XP is a lot of XP. It's up against flashier cards, like the The Red-Gloved Man, Deciphered Reality, Strange Solution. And it's only as good as the card you need to grab, so it probably isn't a good pick for early in a campaign. However, later on, when you've a few high-value cards in the deck - this one is a solid choice.

(That said, for Minh Thi Phan, Analytical Mind is so central to her that I could imagine taking this early for her)

A really solid multiplayer pick.

Solo, it loses too much benefit to be worth it's XP, and Seekers have plenty of access to filtered draw through Old Book of Lore, Eureka!, and No Stone Unturned anyway.

With the advent of Astonishing Revelation, I have completely come around on this card. It has evolved from 'nice card to play if you can draw it', into a genuine wild-card that you want to try to mulligan into. If your deck is dependent on a particular card for a combo, you now have an additional copy of that (or those) cards. AR may end up getting drawn, sure, but if you get this one first, you are taking 0 actions and paying 0 resources to take any card out of your deck. Talk about consistency! If you are particularly insane about min-maxing, you can include 2 AR's, and 2 NSU, and use one to pull out the other, and then use the second NSU to pull out the card you want. I think 2 is the sweet spot for AR, unless maybe your deck size is large, and you can always add Practice Makes Perfect to help weed them out.

If you're running a seeker with more experience than you know what to do with, I recommend giving this card a try. Maybe even with a versatile to add in the AR's. You might be surprised at how much fun it is....or your might draw all your researches on your mulligan and come back to complain!

This card isn't great for seekers, but it is a literal life saver for their guardian friends.

Seeker decks are usually good to go at level 0, where by design guardians are entirely dependent on having their weapons out. A seeker can make reasonable progress against a location without any tools, but a guardian might as well be attacking an enemy with a butter knife with their bare hands.

If you have terrible luck like me, this is basically an auto include in your seeker decks if you have a guardian mob handler. Once their weapon is out the card loses a lot of value, but saving them from milling for four turns to get a damn weapon is huge.
