I'm afraid I don't understand the purpose of this card. Is the only
benefit the one in six possibility of a +1/+1 token? If so it seems like
a poor buy. 3 yen to deploy the card, plus a five in six chance of having
to pay more when you use it. Moreover, on four out of the five occasions
you pay additional yen, you get no benefit for it.

Am I missing something?
