A Promo Card request for FFG

[Prepare for War 155]

Okay, I know that FFG don't read these threads by default, but I'd like to get the idea out there in the community, to give it some momentum.

When it comes to tournament kits, can we please have the early promotional cards be alternate versions of the neutral cards?

The biggest obstacle to deckbuilding multiple decks from 3 core sets is not having enough copies of neutral cards. This has been true of every LCG so far. Please address this early via the competitive scene.

idk I would much rather have full art of big name characters!  Unless the promo was for Hantei XXXVIII, or Yoritomo or something, I would rather they stuck with big clan cards.  3x cores should give plenty of neutral cards for 2 decks.

Yes, indeed, 3x cores gives you enough neutral cards for 2 decks.

Weird how you state that as a positive, while that's basically what I'm complaining about. You'll have a load of cards you can't make into a deck without switching over the neutral cards from your other decks. Sure, it's not a huge hassle to do that, but it's still not ideal.

In Conquest, when Promotion and Void Pirate became promos, there was much celebration, as it meant that 3 cores + expansions could now create more fully built decks at any given time. 

It's not clear to me what the every-deck neutral cards are yet, but I do know that my early deckbuilding efforts have created overlap between decks in those cards.
