I think the main problem with a bounce card is that it's not as flexible as a wink flash.
Bounce cards allow you to bounce most light off the ceiling while the card it'self adds fill.

A wink flash based flash does the same thing...but it can be fired into a ceiling, a sidewall, behind you,...wherever...yet the wink flash still fires straight ahead for fill.

I used a bounce card for years...love the look.
But I love a wink flash based flash even better. Just more flexible in a broader range of situations.

A wink flash is a smaller flash tube on the front of a flash for fill. See graphic.
