It works well in SW. By dealing the cards face up, the GM can quickly determine who goes next without have to do a count down.
The cards also interact with the other rules as well. For NPCs, it determines when their own supply starts running low. In chases, they determine when a random obsticle appears and well as keeping track of seperation. Several Edges, such as quickness and level-headed also interact with the cards.
While everything can be down with dice as well, cards make it easier. Besides, you don't have to write down initative numbers with cards.
