It's Wednesday! We're more than halfway through the week. Since we are over the hump, let's look at a question!



Last week we talked about a hand you didn't know what to do with. This week, we'll look at a personnel.

Who just kind of sits there waiting for an opportunity? This is a personnel you stock in your deck, play them so that you can use their awesome gametext, but wind up never using. They make the cut for the deck, are good enough to get out of your hand but you never use their gametext either because it never triggers or you don't pull the trigger.

Let's face it, you're not using Sirna Kolrami for his Security.

Who is your desk hugger and how closed did you come to using their gametext?

Definitely recency bias (because I used him in my last event), but the one that jumps to mind is Benjamin Sisko, Preserving History.

Like you said, he's "good enough to get out of your hand" but I didn't get round to using his text because it rarely triggered
(either the whole away team was getting stopped by a wall so sending three through would be pointless, or the thing that stopped the 2-costers didn't require a skill (genuinely In Development))
or I didn't pull the trigger
(the one opportunity I could've used him was when a single 2 coster was chosen to be stopped, but then it would've just been a straight swap)
.
