Ascension makes this a joke. Scion deck with Heavensward Y'shtola as a 4-star card, Stormblood Alphinaud & Alisaie as the 5-star, then Thancred, Yda & Papalymo and regular Y'shtola as 3-stars. Soon enough the amount of A sides was so omnipresent I could capture half the board with A&A in the middle through Plus.

New sad record. 45 Karakuris, still no Yojimbo. I don't know how many matches I have played. I am uncertain if mere numbers can represent them anymore. The guard mocks me if I talk to him. He says to make it quick and leave. I want nothing more than to do as he says, and yet he refuses to give me the card. I hear the Triple Triad music when I go to the bathroom. Kugane's music, which drove me insane as I was climbing the tower, is now a sweet relief. I have lost hope. My rations ran out hours ago. Between matches I scribble on the cobblestones but I am running out of stones. The guard pats me on my shoulder as I win another match, then pulls something from a shirt pocket. Is this it? Is this the moment I long for? Hope swells in my chest as he hands me a card. It's ... It's ... Karakuri #46.

His standard Plus/Swap rules are pretty easy to work with, especially if you have a solid deck based around taking corners. Kugane has regional rules, so sometimes patience and a good regional rule set can turn the tides for you! I got both of his cards with 100 or less wins (I wasn't keeping very strict record)
