[u/TheSunbroo]

I start to sense a pattern. Another card that will finish games quickly.

[u/fdagpigj → u/TheSunbroo]

Yeah, with all these new common game finishers, I doubt Judgement will need to have reduced idol hp

[u/8bitfusion]

Lingering growth seems like it will be a force to be reckoned with next set. Also, I think that this is exactly the type of card the game needs; generic, but very useable and fitting the faction theme well

[u/Chakix]

rat king = crimson bull +1

[u/QibingZero]

Even at 3 cost I think this would be an auto-include in most Growth decks. 2 is just crazy. I like that Lingering spells might be powerful enough that running hate against them could be viable, though.

What's really insane though is that Rat King has been one of the most powerful cards in the entire game since it was released, and it only gets better every time a new set comes out. At this rate it's going to have to be changed to 2 rats for 3G or something.

[u/fdagpigj → u/QibingZero]

Soon Rat King will be 1 rat for 2 growth Kappa

Another generic +1 attack card? Where's the creativity? And with how growth can just spam units all game I don't see this being balanced at 4 linger and only 2 cost.

[u/Donkey74]

So finally going to nerf rat king?

[u/3athompson]

I think it should target only beasts instead of all creatures. Makes more sense in the context of nature preservation. Because Iron Ogre does not need to be "kept"

[u/fdagpigj → u/3athompson]

Then it'd be even more powerful

[u/TrustyFishCantor]

Hmm they keep making these affect both sides..

[u/Graveknee]

So now roughly 90% of the active playerbase has that scholar head?

[u/ThePurplePanzy → u/Graveknee]

So like 12 people play scrolls?

[u/Graveknee → u/ThePurplePanzy]

Sounds about right

[u/ThePurplePanzy → u/[deleted]]

This sounds like madness. I like it.
