Hot take...

Being able to see the cards that the opponents plays just kills the fun of the game.
People really be playing like its about their lifes.
Instead of just putting down the cards all those tryhards wait which cards you put down to react to your plays. And if you do the same its becomes a wild switching in cards and in the end the one thats lucky to be able to replace their cards with 0 seconds left wins the game
So the best way to play the game is to let the timer run out and quickly play your cards within the last second.
That shouldnt be the point of the game right?
Not being able to see the album of your opponents card would solve most of that problem

I disagree. Being able to make reactive plays is important. They're essential to making sure you don't waste a card that debuffs the card across specifically if it's from a certain album or such.

It's the fault of the players for turning it into a psychological battle

I mean yeah your kinda right but what im trying to say that it cant be the purpose of the devs that the best way to play the game is by waiting until the timer runs out
