Notable Bug Fixes
- Ninja's Kunai (and Blazing Torch) no longer sacrifices your entire board to deal unintended damage.
- Any players that exploited this bug will soon face justice.
- Citizen's Crowbar no longer sacrifices your entire board to *really* destroy target artifact or enchantment (considering the possibilities this feels like the short end of the stick)
