Summary

We've been taking some time recently to revisit old topics deserving of an update. One of those is surprisingly recent: Exploration. We've only had this mechanic since Prophecy of Kings was released, but we've learned a lot since we first introduced it, and it's about time we cleaned up our thoughts a bit. So, here we'll read the exploration cards for every deck, including Frontier and Relic, and analyze what a player is meant to do with all of that. Music provided by Ben Prunty.

1:13.2	supposed to be like real stuff, you know what I mean? I mean, I think it can be somewhat,
1:17.6	it's, it's, yeah, it's, it's somewhat stalling for time, but it can still have context in,
1:24.4	in jazz and popular music. A short, simple introductory passage usually repeated several times
