Professor Sycamore
Yes, it’s Professor Juniper.
The game designers have obviously decided they want to
keep the ‘dump and draw big’ Supporter in the game for
the foreseeable future, and it seems like it’s the job
of the most recent video game Professor to provide it
(just like Oak did in Base Set). I don’t have any real
problem with that: Juniper/Sycamore is by far the best
Supporter we have in the game right now and I wouldn’t
want to be without it unless we got something better. We
really are starved of good Supporters and good draw in
general right now, and this is the card that is largely
responsible for whatever speed and consistency our decks
have at the moment.
New players are often somewhat wary of the discard
costs, but once you learn to manage it this card is
invaluable. Always the first Supporter you write down on
your decklist and worthy of
its status as a ‘staple’ card.
Rating
Modified: 4.75 (the best draw available)
Limited: 5 (just watch you don’t deck out)
