Heaven Sent

Doctor Who Set Praise

Now that the full set has been revealed, I can say unreservedly that Doctor Who is my favourite set in terms of flavour. Particular highlights include Twice Upon a Time being in both the deck containing the First Doctor and the deck containing the Twelfth Doctor, Ace's Baseball Bat forcing a Dalek to block the equipped creature while giving them the stats to take it out, and the design of Heaven Sent perfectly matching the episode it comes from. Please pass on high fives to Gavin and his team!

Will do.

Design Insight

As someone who is not a fan of UB in general and against mechanically unique UB cards, I must say that I'm impressed by Doctor Who cards; you can really see how much love and effort was put into it and it's always lovely to hear people gush/explain things they're passionate about. And hopefully it'll also spark some more love for time-shenanigans mechanics like suspend and cute self-recursive cards like Heaven Sent.

There really are lots of designs that would never happen if not for a Universes Beyond inspiration.
