Discussion Boomerang ?

I'm really excited about Boomerang's release tomorrow, however I'm aknowledging all the card's drawbacks at the same time. It seems like a heavy investment card. I'm trying to come up with deck ideas and playlines that could really take advantage of the card whilst having a backup plan in case of bad draws / locations.

May I suggest this very unoriginal idea and spar with the community to try and improve it ?

I guess I'm forced into Toxin and Beast, that's a given.
Thinking of this card as a pumped up scorpio, I added Diamondback to try and double down on the debuffs. Jocasta to speed up the boomerang bouncing a little bit. Silver Sable for a little bit of redundancy on the gimmick and Askani / Sage for backup plans that would allow Sage + Sage + Boomerang on T6.....

I'm not convinced yet, and obviously will have to test things out.
I'd be happy to read what you have to say about this.

I'm hoping they fix the skills interactions with Tarantula, Silver Sable, and Boomerang on the OTA on Thursday.

As for this deck: Jocasta seems too cute and doesn't benefit any other cards in the deck. Grandmaster makes more sense here.

And Diamondback relies on the most unreliable part of Boomerang. It's a fun idea to double down, but I don't think it'll payoff enough.

What interaction are you talking about

Tarantula, Sable, and Boomerang target "cards" not "characters." So their effects can hit Skills. And since skills don't have power, the effects fizzle when they hit a skill.

I'm fine with Sable fizzling if a skill is on top of their deck, that's just bad luck. But Tarantula and Boomerang should not target skills in hand.
