Habib's STCCG card of the day #12

Greetings all, and welcome to Habib's Card of the Day. Today is the 4th day in artifact week and we will look at the...

THOUGHT MAKER

Artifact
"Outlawed Ferengi mind control device. Transmits signals that implant sensory experiences and triggers emotions and memories"
Place in hand until played once as an Interrupt card. Look at opponent's draw deck for ten seconds and rearrange as desired.

This is an okay artifact but I wouldn't say it's terrific. If you do decide to use it, as always place it under an easy mission so you can get it right away. Once you get it, play it soon so you can get your opponent's good cards at the bottom.

Cards that I would put at the bottom are:

Red Alert!
Really good personnel
The Juggler
Palor Toff
Metaphasic or Nutational Shields
Kevin Uxbridge, Amanda Rogers, and Q2
ships (especially if they don't have any out yet)

Also if you know that they rely on one strategy, take out the cards for the strategy and they probably won't win.
