lol how did that work?
It automatically kills any non-undead enemy and for bosses with multiple phases it moves you to to the next one/ends it if it was the last one.

Drawing magic is kinda nice, although it did unbalance the game (junctioning = bad)
Junctioning was fine. It was the magic system that was the problem. It was utterly trivial to get insane quantities of reasonably high level magic instantly (unless you were Spoony, I guess) while at the same time you basically never wanted to cast any spells due to it actively hurting your stats. If you could, say, only draw from draw points once + couldn't from enemies (with the obvious GF acquisition rework), having more copies of the spell powered it up (eventually turning Fire into Fira, etc.), and using it didn't remove copies then basically every complaint about the Junction system goes away.

And Triple Triad still is the best minigame ever. There have been some good ones otherwise but none of them have the sheer depth of integration into the world. BD2 had a great potential competitor, but having everything be on a point-buy system, having no "area rule" system, and no equivalent to the various side/secret content really left it feeling lacking by the end.
