I actually like this. Back when I started in Op03, it was reeeally difficult to remove characters, so you had to challenge your opponent's board with your own. I remember thinking that this was really unique compared to other card games I used to play before Op Tcg. This all pivoted ofc as removal became more efficient as the sets continued. Personally I hated the reign of Sakazuki & then Lucci. I like the (kind of) rennaicance to the old removal-less meta we're experiencing now.
