Absolutely retarded card that only emphasizes the problem which many in the community are starting to clearly see; Seekers are insanely overpowered. Not only do they only have a single weakness that is not even that big nowdays, which is dealing with enemies, but they keep giving them incredibly busted cards like this for no reason. I have no idea how this card made it out of the testing phase like this.

So now you do not even have to worry about enemies? You can just run over them if they have hunter and push them back, or if they do not you just push them aside so you can still keep on collecting clues like a maniac? What a joke! And a cherry on top, you get 2 stats that are actually pretty relevant, since you need Intellect obviously, but Agi tests usually deal damage which is one minor weakness of Seekers since they have a bit lower Health. It really is funny how the same brains that thought this card is fair managed to print stuff like Trench Knife and Henry Wan and probably thought "hmm yeah this is good, they will play it".

If this card only dealt with clues and gave you 2 stats, it would probably still see play, since removing clues from high shroud locations is really interesting thing that has so far not been explored that much, but with this card it will not even matter since most will use it just for enemies and occasional moving of clues. Sorry, this was not a review since there are not many things i can say about this card, but only a rant. Cards like this are clearly becoming a problem and show some favouritism when it comes to Seekers at the developers table, and it is not a good thing for the health of this game.

So to conclude = Taboo worth, or just ban it at your table when you see how OP it is, like it used to be when someone used to play with Higher Education and Dr. Milan Christopher all the time.

I would replace "During each upkeep phase, instead of drawing 1 card, draw 2 cards and discard 1 of them." to:

"During each upkeep phase, instead of drawing 1 card, look at the top 2 cards of your deck. Draw 1 and any weakness among them. Discard the rest."

It seems fair middle road to me. I think both other interpretations are unbalanced. If you draw a weakness with it, then allowing to discard that weaknesses (right after the revelation) is too powerful if it's a crippling asset or enemy. Then there's the other way, forcing a discard of the other card makes it near unplayable. You would not only be getting the activation of a weakness, but also losing a (good) card!

In an Agnes Baker or a Lola Hayes deck, the Astronomical atlas can inform you that your weakness is on the top of your deck, which allows you to use Yaotl to discard it from the top of your deck.

Not good enough to include Astronomical atlas if you had planned to use Yaotl, but a good reason to include Yaotl if you had already planned to use the Atlas.

Of course the best solution (to eliminate weaknesses) is Scroll of Secrets (3): look at the bottom 3 cards and discard the weakness among the 3 cards if any. And combined with Astronomical atlas you can even eliminate 2 weaknesses among the 3 cards if necessary (but only Lola and alternate Daisy can have both cards I think).

I've played this game, true solo, a lot for the past year or so but never written a review. This card deserves a raving one! Consider how many locations there are at end game where you need to clear clues to win, usually 2/player. There's an enemy there to mess you up. Game over for him/her/it (!), if you have the health/sanity to give. My advice if you're playing solo: Include it as soon as you can, should you be able to. Finishes scenarios in a hurry.

FYI: If you take both Short Supply and Moonstone, then when your first turn of the game begin, if your Moonstone is one of the ten cards that get discarded, you can immediately play it right from the start. This is quite a neat way to start the game with +1 willpower and + 1 evade. This definitely would be something Patrice Hathaway want to do, but all other investigators who can take both cards should also seriously consider this little combo if they choose to take either Short Supply or vice versa Moonstone, including Lola Hayes (which pumps her willpower and evade to a respectable 4 from the start).

Correction: this does not work because Moonstone needs to be played from your hand.
