Fatal Error is really a key card in your deck. How and when you play can really determine if you win or lose.
Rule Clarification
For example if you spent 4 actions so that X is 4, you can destroy any card with action cost of 3.
What is good to stop Fatal Error?


Changelog During Playtesting
- Nerf in August 2026:
X must now be double the amount of the card you want to destroy.
- Nerf in December 2025:
X is now -1, basically the card cost 1 more to play.
- Nerf in May 2020:
Used to cost 0 with the following text: "Destroy a flipped station card [ OR ] destroy any non-station card and the opponent may draw 2 cards.". But after creating the United Stars deck this did not work good considering the Starship card.
- September 2018: Created.
