Blizzard just told us more about Evolve mechanic changes, that were forgotten in the latest 16.0 patch
- You can now Devolve 0 mana minions into new ones.
- You can now Evolve 10+ mana minions into the same mana-cost minions.
You might be asking, but is that even good? What does It change?
- You are now able to re-roll (0) mana "12/12" Frog or magnetized Target Dummy with Devolve into other (0) mana cards.
- You are now able to re-roll Giants into fresh copies. In other words, you'll "Heal" your Giants and remove any Buffs/Debuffs from them.
- You are now able to play Shirvallah, the Tiger, Rush (trade) and Heal for 7 HP, re-roll into a new, fresh copy of Shirvallah, the Tiger and you can Rush (trade) again and Heal for another 7 HP! (Divine Shield will be refreshed too with the re-roll!)
- You are now able to remove Taunt from 10+ mana (or 0 mana) minions with Devolve (mainly giants and buffed Frog/Target Dummy).
These are the cards we are talking about:
Quote from BlizzardCards that “transform a minion into a random one that cost (1) more/less”, like Evolve or Devolve, will now always re-roll the minion, even if no minion exists in the target-cost minion pool. The minion will be re-rolled at the nearest possible cost.
Examples:
- When you Devolve a Target Dummy, because there is no negative-cost minion, it will transform into a random 0-cost minion.
- When you Evolve a Shirvallah, the Tiger, because there is no 26-cost minion or another 25-cost minion, it will transform into a new Shirvallah, the Tiger.
evolve needs to cost like 3 mana at the least, broken ass shit
the last thing it needs is a fucking buff
works with evolve lackey too, right?
yep.
I love the attention Wild has been getting lately. Barnes nerf, Doom in the Tomb, SN1P-SN4P nerf, old packs returning to the store, now Evolve buffs? Thank you Blizzard
Finally we got some love from them, it has been like 3 years where they usually just shrugged on the wild. There were some things regarding wild of course (like nerfs, wild festival or Toki'z bundle) but never so much in such a small amount of time. Thank you Blizzard indeed.
that is tecnichally a buff,
As a main evolve player this is a great buff for the mechanic of transform minions
Many matches would have saved me a long time ago if it worked like this evolve
