    Can you post a picture of the battle cards organized by pip color? That would help too.

    So you seem to have a kind of even split between blue and orange

    15 blue pips between 13 blue cards
    14 orange pips between 12 orange cards

    I think I would drop both plasma bursts and put in 2 New Designs. That gives you 14/40 probabability of drawing orange on an attack flip, which is 1/3. combine that with your almost 1/5 chance of flipping a white pip and I think your deck is about as good as you can get it at the moment. Do you have people to play with? If not, you can create the same Deck in OCTGN and I'd be glad to play with you sometime!

    I do not know this OCTGN thing. Is it some online card game battler? I’m (clearly) not on there and no I currently don’t have anyone to play (LITERALLY just got these cards today lol). I’d love to play with you too :)

    Yeah, here is a discord group for people playing online: Discord - Free voice and text chat for gamers I'm cehteshami#5069 on discord.

    To download OCTGN you can go here: OCTGN - Gaming Platform Download Live - 3.2.103.0 not the experimental. Then you can go to game manager and install transformers tcg, then go to deck manager and build your deck from the list of cards. It's pretty straightforward, but I can answer any questions you might have.

    damn all that is WAY too complicated to download this thing onto my MacBook. some kind of extra code thing that I don't feel like going into. I'll look at it again tomorrow, but OCTGN might not work out for me :(
