I'd still consider that breaking the game. In this case, the combo would 'only' lock the enemy small ship in place for the rest of the game since neither ship takes damage. If the clause 'If you do' applies to gaining the ion and disarm tokens and not triggering Feedback Array, then passing the ion token with Static Discharge Vanes would not trigger the damage. Reddit users killerardvark and YourHucklebrry suggest a different way to interpret Feedback Array. We'll start with an appetizer: a fun, wholesome combo that makes a bad card decent. If you're not convinced (and that's fair, because I haven't seen this card mentioned at all before), let's consider all of the cards which have jam or ion as a drawback and see how Static Discharge Vanes breaks them. Static Discharge Vanes costs 6 points and can be taken by most ships in the game. Static Discharge Vanes makes your opponent suffer those drawbacks. Static Discharge Vanes prevent those drawbacks. There are abilities in X-Wing which are balanced by a drawback of giving you a jam token (meh) or an ion token (harshest effect in X-Wing). Effects which flip the drawback onto your opponent are really good and should be priced accordingly. Effects which prevent you from suffering the drawback are good. Some strong abilities will be balanced by making you suffer a strong drawback. If you play deck-building games long enough, you'll probably come across a fundamental rule of game balance. It took me a while to figure out Static Discharge Vanes is the real culprit which breaks the game. Surprised to see this? Me too! It wasn't even the card here in the first draft (see third card below).
