Disclaimer: Since I originally posted this, there has been some good debate and feedback surrounding the philosophy of objectivity and questioning whether the qualities scored here are objectively good and whether this method can actually result in an objective outcome.
I think one thing we can all agree on is that this scoring method attempts to be more objective than my purely subjective tier list. Debating objectivity and battling against subjective reality and cognitive bias has been done by the great philosophers of history over the centuries. Many people question whether true objectivity can be attained at all. Regardless, I don’t think we really need to worry about that rabbit hole because this is just a game after all. Anyway, back to the topic at hand…
Over the last few months, I have maintained a Wingspan Card Tier List based on my subjective opinions of how cards rank in Wingspan. The problem with a list of that nature is that it’s based on the opinions of one person and not irrefutable facts or numbers that can be universally regarded as true. I can “Wingsplain” to others why I rank those birds the way that I do, but at the end of the day, there are disagreements about rankings based on opinion.
I’ve set out to create a more objective method of ranking the birds.
I’m going to revisit the power of tucking cards in Wingspan. There are a few standout cards that that I didn’t previously cover. They broaden tucking strategies in Wingspan and are worthy of discussion, as they are among the best tucking cards in Wingspan. Several of these fall into the “Other” category due to their nonstandard ways of tucking cards.
In this article, I’d like to talk about a group of birds that have a rather unique and interesting brown power. Often referred to as “Wingspan migrating birds,” these Wingspan cards can change their habitat once played.
