Memory Wipe from Joeri Hoste

Memory Wipe's second function removes the affiliation of a ship, it's crew and Away teams. This will seriously hurt any deck with a relatively small number of ships since affiliated personnel is required to attempt most missions. Stocking multiple copies of Memory Wipe could spell a world of hurt for your opponent.

Memory Wipe also substantially boosts Non-Aligned decks. The Deep Space Nine Expansion set largely enhanced this possibility in deck-building; now you get to explore it even further. You're missing a couple of crucial skills in your NA-deck. No problem. Just take the personnel with the needed skills and make it Non-Aligned!

The same goes for affiliation-decks. You'd really want to use Dukat, Elim Garak and Korinas in your Romulan deck, but don't want to lose the seed slots to seed a treaty. Memory Wipe them on a separate ship!
