Node Descriptions

I was thinking that instead of duplicating all the info from the opponents' source events, we could just have a table with some basic info and a link to the original node. To me this would look a lot cleaner and be easier to browse through to find the node you're looking for. (It would replace the separate deck lists section as well.) Something like this, maybe?

Opponent Colors Level HP Set Original Event
A History Rewritten Blue 110 260 Dominaria Space-Time Catastrophe
Crystal Slipper RedBlueWhite 80 173 Throne of Eldraine Fables of Eldraine
Elder Hydra Catastrophe Green 140 285 Theros Beyond Death Hero's Path - Face the Hydra
Elenda, the Dusk Rose WhiteBlack 160 360 Rivals of Ixalan Battle of Four Tribes: Part 2
Exquisite Archangel White 150 392 Aether Revolt Revolt against the Consulate

A few things. I like your setup, and I agree the abilities are too much. We should be encouraging players to see the full deck lists, since those old lists represent work by not only this wiki but that database. However, I think the current gem rows look nice.
Also, Nissa Vital Force, Breaker of Armies and probably a few more do NOT come from events. I suspect they are outtakes, as it were, consigned to the cutting room floor and resurrected here. I think a separate section for those with a different markup would look neater, but as you like. And I don't work here all that much so others should have their say.
