I understand it’s called “Casino Mage” but I think games like this should be toned down. But not destroyed.
turn 3 - mailbox dancer turn 4 - coin coin Balinda 9/9 turn 5 and 6 - rune of the arch mage - objection+ counter spell + arcane defenders in BOTH of them. turn 7 - parrot - don’t recall the spells I was fairly annoyed at this point. turn 8 - parrot again included pyroblast for good measure.
so in total he cheated at least 80 mana over 4 turns…. I do understand this is pretty god roll. But even on average this spell is strong, especially when played for 5 mana.
I think this spell should add the manathirst keyword -
manathirst (9) - targets enemies if possible.
this says “hey you can cheat it out, and it could still high roll, but it’s more dangerous this way”.
it doesn’t mean you can’t have strong turns but I think it help balance the card so it doesn’t just steal the game.
I'm sure other cards could use a similar treatment to also buff them or balance them not all manathirst. I think it’s a good tool and should be an evergreen keyword. I think it would be a nice way to change cards.
the problem is the Parrot should only recast spells that actually cost alot not the discounted ones, and also the spells are not random they always beneficial. not like Yog back in the days.
With Big Spell Mage rotating in 1 1/2 months, I think the more responsible choice is to wait it out instead of asking for whole cards to be redesigned from the ground up.
I wouldn’t call it a redesign, the card is exactly the same in situations.. it wasn’t even about that card specifically, Instead I was just saying that maybe they can balance some cards using something that isn’t just mana +- or stats +- By using some of the keywords as control to tune down or up cards. I think that manathirst in particular is a great tool to give under or over performing card increased or decreased flexibility.
Judging by the title, this seemed to be about something different.
Was just about to say that they don't change old cards to use the newer keywords for the same funcionality, because it's too confusing for morons...aaaah i mean players.
i think that they say that, but what they mean is we’d rather just “reprint” the card with the new keyword, even though it’s a digital card game and that means you don’t have to wait for a “reprint”.
