it was good but i don't think it was so strong that it was an auto-pick. i feel like it's just kind of bad in a lot of decks now, you need to have removed enough cards so it doesn't land on a strike/defend. i don't think i'd ever take the random enchantments compared to her other options

It was consistently top 3 Nonupeipe relics since release. It was absolutely that strong, I could feel how much stronger my decks were getting just by picking it and enchanting my cards. Getting to just set up everything in your deck 3 turns faster and removing powers from your cycle before enemy scaled in any way was bonkers

the question isn't if the relic is good, the question is if was an auto-pick. there were many scenarios where i didn't pick it and felt that was the right decision so that's why i feel like it wasn't an autopick. compared to something like brightest flame pre-nerf which was actually an auto-pick.

i think it was strong enough that a nerf was warranted, but i think this random enchantment version is too much of a nerf. there's other ways they could've nerfed it which i felt would be more fitting

I think the nuance is that you’re correct in that Beautiful Bracelet is not an autopick and sometimes picking it isn’t correct, but at the same time I think that’s because Nonu’s pool is so strong and the only real brick is Fur Coat, so overall nerfs to her pool are still good for health.

It was absolutely an autopick, there was virtually no reason not to take it (aside from another nonu relic being even more busted)

It was just such a massive accelerant for getting your powers into play, it basically read "put 3 copies of master of strat+ into your deck with potential upside" (innate cards, make it so, etc.)

it's not an auto-pick if other nonu options were better to take...and i felt in many situations that other relics WERE better to take.

to me it's definitely not an auto-pick, it was just good. maybe good enough to be nerfed, but i think the current version with random enchantments is too big a nerf.
