    so i received expansion preorder email just now

    The email contains phyiscal card images.
    Is it too early to print phyiscal cards? I mean once phyiscal card is release i guess all the cards will be locked. We can't tweak the balance anymore.

    I strongly suggest that we give digital version 1~3month then release a balance patch if needed. (best part of digital TCG)

    I mean it's very likely to have some balance issues. just think about combinations between all the old/new cards.

    +100!! Give the digital version some time to stablished itself. Only then we can find out the unbalance cards.

    I agree, there are too many variables in play now to know how the game will turn out after been field tested in live environment.

    Maybe pre-order starts now, but the goods will be delivered in 6months time?

    definitely, printing is still a long ways off. testing on the test server have to end first before final balance fixes can begin. i think all of us really need to try to break the game now to find out OP cards.

    It is one of my greatest hopes that in the future, mankind achieves enlightenment so high we would not need rules, laws, or government to keep the peace and govern ourselves. By our own motivation and volition, we would do what is right and just because it is right and just. This is the central tenet of anarchy. Not chaos and lawlessness, but free will and self-actualization.

    Yes, they need to wait some time to see if all cards are balanced, otherwise the quality of the product would be ruined.

    I would think waiting before printing physical cards a bare minimum of 3 months would be a no brainer
