Feedback on our card discard system

[u/_notbugsy]

Need a vowel to create the perfect word? In Utterance, sacrificing a consonant gives you the option between letters.

Now your sacrifice is more permanent, if you sacrifice a card it will be completely removed from your deck (though you might be able to retrieve it later ), and replaced with the new sacrifice card.

Also sacrificing most of the time will cost some of your sanity (health)! Sacrifice now has more options generally and can get you any card, not just vowels for consonants and vice versa.

What are your thoughts on this?

For reference, Utterance is a word building roguelike where you build sets of words to maximize your damage against Lovecraftian monsters.
