The art on a large number of the Basic cards is weirdly generic, images that look so plain that youd swear youve seen them before
Duplicant is representative of Phyrexian Ingester, which can get even bigger and still does the exile job
While Machamp V is certainly not one of the best V cards a player can use in the competitive scene, it is absolutely a collectible every Pokmon fan can adore as it favors a serene approach to its art that distinguishes itself from many of the other alternative full art and trainer gallery cards released this past year
If the opposing player is a character that utilizes Scrap Dragon or the Ice Barrier Dragon, Brunak, etc., it is better to adopt a summon-responsive trap regardless of the partner AI
This being said, opening Counterspells, Brainstorms, and Relentless Rats at a rate of more than two per box (on average) is a nice bonus for players and helps make sure you come away with a little something even when your rares and mythics are poor
Note that discover is better than cascade since you can just put it into your hand if you reveal something you don't want to cast, like Hero's Downfall when you have no major targets, so it's always card flow or draw
