The Find card (R) is my absolute favorite card because it finds all my other favorite cards for only 40g. Once I get it my hand, which is usually early on, I never discard it. The cards found with Find are recycled back to the book, too. With mostly First Attack creatures for both offense and defense (especially Centaur in the hand because weapons and armour, particularly ignore capture/destroy items are recycled), Peace/Fog/Drought/Evil Blast and a few choice magic-gathering cards (Mana, Squeeze), I am pretty much unbeatable! I love my Boomerang, too except when it gets captured ;D And that's a good thing because the AI cheat like crazy

Find is a great card. Just to get everyone on the same page, Find is a spell that costs 40G and lets you draw a card from your book. It is also misprinted as "Recycles to Book" (which would make it insanely useless), when in reality it is "Recycles to Hand".
It's better than the closest alternative "Wind of Hope" ( 40G, draw 2 cards ) IMO since this bad boy never goes away even if it does end up costing a bit more. Never worry about discard costs again.

I see what you're talking about, but I had problems with Find. It works great, but there are many times in the game where it floods the hand. I might already have a full hand, but Find forces me to discard, something I hate to do (after all, every card in your had must be something you like). It worked well earlier in the game, but after I won the tournament and went to battle Zeneth and Selena the second go round, it was more a hinderance. I actually liked Wind of Hope, in fact I had 2 in my deck to beat Selena and Zeneth. My brother likes Find, and it works for him. I guess that's the point, that if used in the right way, it works. Good card, though.

When you discard a card that Find found, it recycles back. I hate when I have to discard Find, and then don't get it back for a while. Usually it's a problem to hold Find only when you also want to keep the Boomerrang and/or the Phoenix, etc. I didn't use Find in my book when I played Zeneth. I like the card best when playing multiple players on large maps and lengthy games.

Totally agree with Find being an absolute awesome card. It's a staple in every one of my decks and its your CHOICE to play it, simply because you have it doesn't mean you have to use it. If you have 6 cards in your hand, you know youll have to discard so you can choose not to play it. I HATE discarding it, but sometimes I have to strategically when I want to play a card with a discard requriement. For some reason, I always find myself sacrificing Find for Rust and Mesmorize.

Shuffling of a deck is a HUGE advantage in most cases... Also players tend to keep useful cards in their hands and toss out the most useless... So by the later game, all the useless cards will come back to haunt you while others will have their decks shuffled to round one...
I guess you can use revive but heck, I rather play wind of hope and get 6 cards out of the way of 50 and get a faster shuffle...
40 G in the early game is a rather hefty price to pay also...
