This card is one of the "cycle"
of two-lesson Transfiguration spells that destroy a lesson of a
specific color. Any deck that leans heavily on lesson destruction
should consider this card. And then promptly reject it. It's cheap
to play, but sits in your hand as dead weight if your opponent is
not playing with Quidditch lessons. If you want to strengthen your
lesson destruction deck by playing one of the chancey cards from
this cycle, my top choice would be Avifors, as there are presently
no starting characters that provide a built-in Care of Magical Creatures
lesson. Epoximise would be my second choice, as Wand Shop decks
are obnoxious. Until heavy Quidditch lesson decks gain strength,
this card does not warrant serious consideration in comparison.

This card is really guesswork, and
the odds your opponent is running Quidditch LESSONS is very, very
low. Hooch is used in almost every Quidditch deck, so the chances
of this working are very slim. If this works, it is an ok card,
but I would prefer Cobbing or Lost Notes, since they won't take
up room most of the time.

Yes this is a stretch to the theme,
but we had to fill the gap somehow. And since practice is cancelled,
it's time to do that sweeping under the rug. If you were to drop
this card while doing it, don't even bother picking it up. If there
is one lesson type that doesn't get many lessons themselves played
(or shouldn't); Quidditch is it. It has no power building effect
as a lesson type, so use Hooch when playing Quidditch. Please don't
use this card! You know in your heart, they only made this card
so that there would be one like it for each lesson type.

Today's card is called Cancelled Practice.
Now frankly, a Cancelled Practice tends to upset most quidditch
players, but not me of course since I didn't need to practice to
be as good as I was. You know sometimes it rough being so good at
everything, but that is something I alone must bear. So now onto
the card, it forces your opponent to discard one quidditch lesson.
Well unless your psychic and you know you're opponent is going to
be playing quidditch cards what's the point? Yes you have extra
denial and yes the card only costs 2 transfig power to play but
there are much more attractive ways to rid your opponent of cards,
PON, lost notes, etc, etc. So unless you've been sniffing in the
same smoke that Professor Trewlaney is, I would advise against using
this card. It may have its place but overall, i would say avoid
it if you can.

Canceled Practice?!!?!?!?!?? awwwwwwwww....
mannnnnn.... well, i guess i'll
go study or something.... This card.... well.... i pity the fool
who doesn't
side this card out for picking on neville or lost notes. Now if
you were
playing a draco discard deck that picked on lessons, this might
be a
possibility. MIGHT. But overall, if you were going to pick on a
lesson
type, care of magical creatures would be the better bet. only because
right
now, it is the only type that there is no teacher who provides it.
And that
folks.... is about all there is to say about cancelled practice.
that and
KUDOS for the artwork.

At last we have the 5th Transfiguration
precise lesson-removing spell. People were asking if there will
ever be one, well here it is! Alas, it is not as useful as one should
think. Avifors and Cauldron to Sieve were and are still are the
most useful of the series since both CoMC and POTIONS need to be
discarded. Epoximise should come in fashion since the number of
Charms lessons being used has radically increased with the arrival
of Wand Shop. Restricted Section and Cancelled Practice should be
the less useful ones since usually, when this type of learning is
required, the teachers start the duel and know their books by heart.
Anyhow, a card that works in such a particular situation shouldn't
be considered before any other card that could do the same in a
more general way. Diffindo, PON and Lost notes are perfect examples.
With your deck already filled with 12 cards of pure denial, you
shouldn't need to consider Cancelled Practice anymore.
