There's an irony to trading card games like Disney Lorcana: the better you make things for longtime fans, the worse it can be for newcomers. Adding new mechanics is essential to keep your playerbase invested, but this creates an increasingly labyrinthine knot of ideas for beginners to digest.
Magic: The Gathering has had this issue for years, and its countless terms make it borderline incomprehensible unless you're already knee-deep in the meta. That's why Lorcana's Fabled expansion is such a pleasant surprise. Rather than charging onward like its predecessors, it stops, takes a breath, and returns to shallower water.
