Am I unlucky? Or am I playing it incorrectly?

Fairly newer player here. So, it could be the latter. However, by scenario 3, I now (would have had, because I house-ruled a reroll mid campaign out of insane frustration, fight me) ((foreshadowing)) have the possibility of the bells being in my deck.

Situation:

Game 1: draw Doomed first upkeep phase. No biggie. It's all good. I imagined how this might go as I'm running the infamous Ursula Fast and Curious deck. Draw draw draw. I foresaw this being a problem with the deck upon creation, but thought, "ehhhhhh it'll be fiiiiine"

Game 2: first upkeep phase, draw Accursed Fate. Okay. Not exactly how I imagined this. But hey, "we're still good" (mythical beasts, I got you).

Game 2 (3 turns later): draw Accursed Fate. Wait. What? Oh, yeah. Remember that shuffle happened because of Eureka!? Oh yeah. I 'member. I didn't have Milan in my opener after mulling 10 cards for the second game now. But we had Eureka! We thought "we're still good," but in reality, we weren't because we shuffled Accursed Fate conveniently to the top like the Champions of God we are.

Game 2 (right after it ended): me making whining noises and being very frustrated with silly cards, then remembering, "I'm the boss in my house" (kind of). "Consider yourself rerolled ya stupid bells" windmill slams a new basic weakness on the table.

1/10 Will probably* not play it again.

*I mean, mechanically, it did exactly what it was supposed to do (assuming I played it correctly with the shuffle), giving me the fear of my impending doom. I just didn't realize I was supposed to die by game 3.

I have a few questions about this card:

1) When an investigator like Sefina, Diana, or Barnaby becomes Amanda, which card is committed to each test? Are the cards beneath Sefina considered separate from Amanda’s?

2) If Sefina becomes someone like Diana, do effects that reference "cards beneath Sefina" (e.g., from The Painted World) still apply?

3) When Sefina becomes Diana, do Diana’s effects that add cards beneath her apply on top of those already under Sefina? Does the +1 Willpower bonus apply to all cards beneath?

4) When transforming into Ashcan Pete or Preston Fairmont, what happens to their signature cards? Does Duke enter play upon the change? Does Family Inheritance come into play?

This becomes really good with Kate Winthrop if you plan to do actions on an empty location. Having always a +4 bonus on any test if you got 2 magnifying glass is really awesome. A must in my opinion.

Just want to point out that.

A) Playing this provokes an attack, so be careful with that. B) The "actions" on this aren't actions, so they dont provoke attacks.

This opens the door to be using assets that would normally put you in jeopardy or moving enemies around. For example if somebody else has an enemy, you can move the player and an engaged foe goes with them, which might have a variety of uses.

This card picks up a LOT of steam in a bigger group and at higher level, where more and more players are toting bigger effects on better and better cards, not to mention that higher level characters can pull off bigger and bigger stunts.

All of that said, I think this card could have used "Does not provoke" as part of it's text, simply as a means to be useful when all the enemies are on you.

This is easily the artifact that was most desired during my first Drowned City run. Everyone knows that Pathfinder is incredibly powerful - so what about a permanent Pathfinder that doesn't even have the unengaged requirement, and can move two spaces for good measure? Drag enemies around as you like, and be wherever you need to be!

Sure, the flip side is a little sad. The fight is of limited use. Finn Edwards or other Dirty Fighting users who can deal 2 damage with this. That still only puts this on par with 'okay' attacks, and most fighters have standard weapons that can be used more than once per turn for more consistent results.

But when you already have access to one of the stronger effects in the game, it doesn't matter if the 'bonus' effect is weak. The flip effect of this could not exist, and this would still see constant use - and if you happen to be on the path where you can get this on your second mission, it should be a priority objective to do so.
