- annual battle of the bards

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- action selection — Players can choose two actions from a list, including creating a performance, capturing an audience, using a bard's ability, or hiring a bard.
- Deck Building — Players start with the same deck besides their elite card. Players draw cards, play cards to gain dice, and can fire any bard from their hand to trim their deck.
- Dice Rolling — Players gain dice from cards and roll their dice pool. Dice are used to create performances and activate bard abilities.
- End-game scoring — Encore cards provide end-game scoring bonuses, and final scoring includes audience score, hired bards, and performance tokens.
- Hand Management — Players choose three cards to play simultaneously and manage their hand for hiring bards and performing actions.
- Set Collection — Players capture audience cards by discarding cards and performance tokens, and these grant victory points and special abilities.

Quotes (from this video)
- I'll trade a $60 euro for that in a heartbeat. Not even think about it because $60 euro game I reviewed I didn't give a [ __ ] about.
- No, man. I grew up I grew up with a scarcity mindset. I hold to that dear.
- The majority of the games that I have at this point in my attic are absolute horseshit.
- It's got a really cool auction mechanism. I think you call it you can't go back where essentially you get offers and you look at the offer and you have to immediately accept it or immediately reject it and move on to the next offer and you so you you don't know what you're getting into.
- My goal is to be almost 100% board game free other than like a small handful of things that I'll play with my kids.
- My favorite thing about Strike is that the first time people play it, they're like, "That's all there is."
- It's 1:15 in the morning. Not early. Boom.
