I disagree, the old system is not clunky and I seriously doubt that anyone is having anxiety issues over slightly different names. Besides, I think it is helpful to distinguish between regular and episode cards. Furthermore, the current system for dealing with collisions works just fine. Also, the system you propose would not work as well. For example, there are 3 episode sharpshots that share the same weapon. These names would be exactly the same and yet we would no longer have a way to differentiate them. That is literally the ONLY exception, and I don't see a problem, you can link that weapon to all 3 bots no problem, and as for naming, we would have a one off, which would be necessary regardless of the system we use. This is a non issue.

It does deal with collisions just fine, but that is not the only criteria we should be using, ease of use for players should also be considered, and players that compare their inventory to the posted list can't use the list at all because there is no name sorting that you can do online that will match your in game options. The "Episode" and "Evovle" prefixes mess that up. I don't understand why people insist on keeping the type information as part of the name. We don't keep the attack or health or any other data point in the name, why are we making an exception for the card type? It should be separate.

I can't be the only one that uses the wiki data in conjunction with my in game deck. Why don't we poll users?
