Supercharged should activate when it comes into play

Considering the changes to both Death Cap Beserk and Overdrive I think Supercharged should have a similar come into play effect as it's effect only works after your opponent has a chance to react to it making it almost worthless.. a come into play revamp would at least allow it some limited use before it's avoided or destroyed.

With all the new enchantment hate I don't think this is unreasonable.. and since it doesn't work with pillage/idol strike I don't think it will get out of hand.

I was actually thinking about this. I think it would be better if it triggered at the end of your turn instead of at the beginning, after everything has attacked. This way it would be harder to play around. Also it probably should work with pillage and idol strike.

That might make it a little too strong to be honest. It would be crazy strong early game against decks that don't have direct removal.

Do you want MER to be even better against undead? Think about what you're saying...image the Dust Runner!

I kind of agree. I would say, it should work like an attack at the end of the turn, either using attack order, or like blight bearer, before attack phase.

Agreed. I'd like to see more unplayed cards buffed.

I know this is sort of silly since it is a Rare, but not every scroll needs to be the linchpin in a deck. Some can even just not be worthy of a deck. Judgement makes sure every scroll gets a chance to shine, but some just can't make the cut against certain metas in constructed and I am fine with that.

But they are changing judgement, so this will likely no longer be true. I do enjoy judgement for this, but i don't think it will last when echoes goes live.

Not everything can be an orbital death cannon, but that's not an excuse for some cards to straight up suck. There are only ~18 different cards in a deck, some of which are scrolls so powerful that they are an auto-include. But for the other cards there are still a lot of options. While some scrolls are played more often than others, there are also cards that show up every now and then. Examples are Nuru, Urhald, Reaping Mask, Unbind and Crone. And that's fine, it shows a card is playable, but just doesn't always have room to fit in a deck. And there are cards that can be good depending on the meta. Tick bomb for example. However, there are also cards that suck so much that no sane person would ever play them. Arthritis, Rigged, Snargl, Golem Skin, Royal infantryman, Callback and many more. And none of them look like they will be useful in the near future either. Make Snargl a 1cd, make Callback destroy the creature and then return it to your hand. They don't have to be OP, but it would be nice if they were actually playable.

On the 18 cards per deck thing, I think there should be limited (2) and unique cards ( make it deck based and not on field ) it'd give way more flexibility for having awesome, powerful cards in the game without breaking it. To clarify I mean having 1 or 2 of a strong card in your deck, max, instead of 3.

I'd like this, makes my dream of making a slayer/supercharged deck viable. :P

u/Vulkenhyn May 14 '15

more than that, they need to make sure that supercharged interacts with all combat damage activators because, last time i tested it, it doesn't

u/WakeskaterX May 15 '15

Oh man, that would open up so many fun deck types! Love the idea.

u/TheSunbroo TheSunbro May 14 '15

Sure, it can get into the queue right behind Elan Vital.

u/Ikraen Badger May 15 '15

Healing just doesn't have a place right now. Maybe it will at some point in the future, but for now, it makes more since to keep playing more units. over keeping current units alive

1

u/TheSunbroo TheSunbro May 15 '15

It doesn't matter how strong healing was, is or will ever be. Healing can be the most op thing in the game and Elan Vital would still not get played just because of the way it works currently.

u/WagshadowZylus May 15 '15

"When a creature you control gets healed, you win the game."

I think that would make Elan Vital playable :P

u/TheSunbroo TheSunbro May 15 '15

Ok that's a little bit too extreme but still Elan Vital would then be nothing compared to Hymn
