Their race ended much the same way it began, walking through a sandstorm on a world that ended long ago.

Dear viewers! Welcome to the Ghirapur Grand Prix, the roar of engines is filling the air as drivers take to their positions on the starting grid. Each machine, a beast tamed by steady hands and focused eyes. The heat of the tracks ripples across the horizon, and the momentary silence is broken only by the low sound of exhausts. It’s the moment of maximum tension: everyone waits for the lights to go out. When the signal is given, it will be an explosion of speed, skill and pure adrenaline. Who will cross the finish line as the ultimate champion?

Non-set-dependent objectives, for better or worse.

On better: don’t necessarily have to play with newer or niche cards, and this might avoid tiering up if Gold or lower and not wanting to go up yet.

On (maybe?) worse: will probably face a lot of loop decks, but they at least don’t have to be (neg and pos).

Everything I said about this objective in Night of the Hunt still stands:

Allowing you to destroy your own creatures would be another way to make the objective less random and give the player more agency in completing it.
