								Player since 
								1995  | Force of Will
 As an engineer, I sometimes like to joke that 
								the universal plan B for engineering is to take 
								a hammer and hit whatever the thing is until it 
								fits. That's only partly a joke. It works with 
								IKEA furniture, it can be adapted to computers 
								by just plugging whatever cable you have into 
								wherever it can go and stay, and it was famously 
								used to complete Beijing's Olympic venue on 
								time. I like to think of Force of Will as the 
								universal plan B for planeswalkers. It works on 
								just about anything, and the opportunity cost of 
								reverting to it is usually worth it; but just as 
								you should be wary of putting too much force 
								into your hammering or, sometimes, of putting 
								too much weight on it for a while, you should 
								save some of your Fact or Fiction-style cards 
								when you have to Force something. Blue decks, 
								like engineers, are solution-oriented, and for 
								all Force of Will's applications, it's still a 
								reaction, not a solution per se.
