Neat effect for replaying and keeping those allies who have a trigger an then discard.

Stray Cats in particular become A LOT better with this card.

Oh, and Pete can bring Duke back from the dead with this. So that is pretty great.

On the other hand, it does require you to pay the cost of the ally, unlike the level 0 version.

So basically, it needs to target low cost, potentially expendable allies in order to justify the slot.

It will get better with more allies, but right now I would probably skip this outside of some weird party compositions.

this one lets you keep the ally, so if you're just using it on allies who discard to use, there's no reason to spend the xp to upgrade to this version. the 0-xp version is far superior, only costing 1 and having the same icons (and of course costing no xp). only upgrade to this one if you have allies you want to keep around for a while for some important strategy. and Duke, like you said, it's a good way to make sure Pete isn't alone if he ends up taking too much horror/damage. — dr00 · 12
If Duke doesnt have a resource cost, can you use this card on him? — Fenrirgarm · 11
Duke actually costs 2. I think Last Chance does work on him. — Mogan · 1

This card is wonderful if you have the permanent “On Your Own“. Suddenly, you can have as many allies in your tableau as you can recur this card... and you play them at a two buck discount. With Wendy's amulet, you can play it, then get another shot it chance encounter from your discard pile. It’s a wonderful combo because it provides soak, and if nothing else, allies are wonderful at that.

I feel like I'm missing something... can you clarify? OYO(3), the permanent version, says your investigator gains "Deckbuilding Restrictions: No assets that take an Ally slot". So while A Chance Encounter (2) would absolutely let you play other investigators' allies from their discard piles, I don't see how you could get any Allies of your own into your own discard, as you couldn't own them to begin with? — HanoverFist · 720
Whoops. Meant tableau. — MrGoldbee · 1453
Also, OYO only makes events cheaper. — SGPrometheus · 809
A Chance Encounter is an event! — MrGoldbee · 1453
Oh I see; the cost of Chance Encounter is their cost, my mistake. — SGPrometheus · 809
OYO would be discarded once the ally you grab with ACE came into play though, so it doesn't work. — ZachsFisher · 59
Permanent OYO affects your deckbuilding, and doesn't care if you have Allies in play, so yes, this works. The only problem is your friends need to be using non-unique allies to pull it off. — Lailah · 1
