Pojo's FMA Card of the Day

Bull's Eye:
Of the three cards we review this week, Bull's
Eye is the most versatile, but also the most
costly. Taking a search action to destroy an
advantage can be a huge tempo loss, but it could
still be worse if the advange (maybe Fight on My
Terms?) is still in play. This makes Bull's Eye
worth it in a lot of cases, and it destroys
attachments in the search party as well.
The most interesting aspect of Bull's Eye,
besides the obvious "I destroy attachments OR
advantages" is the fact that it's Noble. This
means Rush Valley Streets can grab it (and so
can The Armstrong Estate I suppose), which makes
it more searchable than Betrayal or Aflame.
However, it doesn't always have the same effect
as Betrayal or Aflame, so it's really hard to
say which is better. I think it really depends
on the deck- decks with lower wits probably want
to play Bull's Eye over Betrayal, but a leader
with 5-6 wits at level 2 should probably be
playing Betrayal instead.
Bull's Eye is passable in limited, but I don't
remember it being especially amazing in AHP
sealed. Although it did kill Mark of the
Ouroboros, it didn't do much else. Still, it was
a good card, so it gets a decent rating.
Ratings:
Constructed: 3.75/5

Keeping with
the theme of attachment hate we are reviewing
Bullseye. This is a Search Strength 4: Destroy
target attachment or advantage. If you're
putting this card in soley for the attachment
hate I'd say you're better off running Aflame.
It's ability to destroy advantages is where it
really shines as there are very few cards that
allow you to do so. There's nothing better than
assigning to a location uncontested and then
proceeding to Bullseye his strongest advantage.
Even better having your opponent assign in
because they have Fight on My Terms out only to
have it be destroyed.
The attachment part is an added bonus, just how
the strength pump for Bullseye is. It is nice
that it gets around "can't be targeted" allies
since it targets the attachment and not the
ally. If you feel you need more advantage hate
and less attachment hate then go with Bullseye
over Aflame.
Constructed: 5/5-Very few cards destroy
advantages.
Sealed: 3/5-May be a dead card in your hand
against some sealed decks.

Bulls Eye 4
Strength
Noble
Search Strength 4: Destroy target attachment or
advantage.
(I believe there is an errata specifying it can
target at home to be able to hit advantages,
however I dont remember if it also applied to
attachments.)
DESTRUCTION!
So to me we hit one of the weaker killers,
Bull's Eye. Overall the effect of this card is a
1 for 1 no more, no less. The bright side is it
doesn't target characters so nothing I listed
yesterday stops it. It can eat Cage and Bazaar
off hand though, but those are minority cancels
at the same time. The downside here however is
its a Search action, which isn't a bad thing if
its a free walk location. Its even more
splashable with its low cost of a 4. Theres not
a whole lot more to say, however if I'm messing
up the errata and it can hit attachments at home
I'd bump it .5 in the rating scale otherwise:
Constructed: 3/5 Better options, but an easy to
play card(3.5 if wrong)
Sealed: 4/5 Its attachment hate(4.5 if wrong) |

Bull’s Eye
4 Cost
Search
Strength
Destroy
Target Attachment or Advantage.
This card
gives you an option at the cost of an attack.
It’s cheap so most characters will be able to
pay for it though. I’ve never really liked
search events since my play style is very
direct. Yes it’s a personal reason but it’s one
I really can’t get past. I do like that for the
cost you get a choice of either a nasty
attachment or one of those evil little
advantages your opponent has out. I do use one
of these for emergency use but I never really
count on it so more often then not I use it for
Equivalent Exchange.
Final call:
Constructed:
3/5
Got a stable
ability for the cost but sacrificing an attack
is just too much, gotta love the art though.
Limited:
3.75/5 it’s easier to choose this card in
Limited since other options are so slim.
