So as we're looking at the Eternals rotating out at the end of March along with a few new attempts to push Evolve strategies. i figured it would be fun to take a look at the Princess Connect characters with their union burst which were generally succesful and look at the Eternals in Comparison who well.. were mostly not succesful. What were the differences that made Union burst on average more succesful than Skybound arts ? ... Also seemed relevant with the Princess connect anime going on atm :P
Plus i feel like it might shine a light on why the current crop of Evolve strategies aren't quite working out too well
Utility and Flexibility vs Rigidity and Narrowness
One important element when you compare the two is the fact that most of the Princess Connect characters were generally all around good cards. They didn't even necessarily care about being in a heavily evolved focused strategy or needed to be in one. Meaning they could be used a lot more flexibly compared to the eternals who tend to be incredibly rigid in their usage. Don't have them sufficiently evolved ? Then you're just going to feel really bad for playing them.
Same thing with any of the union burst ones ? Well most of them typically had additional effects that gave them great utility or even evolve effects that were quite good. Kokkoro saw more usage for her card draw than her Union burst effect, same with Io. And Peccorine could easily just be played as a growing rush threat.
So where Union burst lend itself more easily towards decks in general. The eternals seem hellbent on being as difficult to use as possible
Poor meshing with the class
And that was the other issue with the Eternals. They generally with their effects never really meshed well with the class and mostly seemed in it for themselves rather than playing along with everyone else. An example would be Mirin vs Shizuru
Both gold cards. Both having a burn effect on achieving their requirement. But where Mirin is all about that burn and nothing else. Shizuru has more elements to her. A handy effect when evolved going second (and if you got more EP than your opponent) free evolves on acheiving the effect and a generally better statline. Shizuru just plays better with the rest of the class, by not only just being more useful on her own, but also then helping other evolve caring cards by evolving he

Title says it all
I've never hired an artist for a piece before, but I would like to know if there are any local artists that would be interested in a commission of a piece I would love to have done for a local union officer.
I'm looking for a poster of any medium. It would feature several raised fists wearing Bernie Sanders inauguration mittens. The theme would be "Unions Make Us Strong". I would like to see anywhere between 3 to 100 legible raised, mittened fists. There can full bodied people, silhouettes, or just the arms, but the attention is the mittened fists.
I would prefer no text, but I'm not entirely against it if it works with the art. No political logos.
Please let me know how much a piece like this would cost. I would also like to be informed of any copyright concerns after the purchase of a commissioned piece.
Thank you!

Hello, all! I'm considering selling some extra crafts and such at Union Square but the rules seem a little complicated and I'm sure the shopping village makes it even tougher. Not only that, but I don't know who's staked out what turf, if there's some unofficial rules, etc. (and it seems like there's more people out selling than are supposed to be?)
Anyone ever do this before and have some tips?
They only accept like 65 students and my teacher told me that heβs only ever had like three students that he thought could get in and im one of them and man im just excited to start the home test already jdksbdnd
