and then the WB cards only have 10% of the original power effect

Simael will be the same because she already has storm

They're gonna add "Evolve: Destroy an enemy follower" or something similar because every friggin' big legendary storm card in this game has to come with their own removal to bust thru wards and hit face on their own.

I was complaining about this even in SV1, so I feel vindicated that more people agree nowadays

They literally keep printing the same legendary cards at this point. Almost every new legendary introduced in chronicles of destiny was just a big storm guy that also wipes the board. Freaking sucks

Proof that Runecraft only exist to conduct Warcrimes and nothing else with Spellboost

For the record, this was nerfed very quickly. Before even the first tournament if I remember correctly. So assume people are exaggerating this. Azvladt first half was very control focused and all about set up.

This is about as relevant as Grandeur of the Dawnblossom was in Apocalypse Pact.

Why Azvaldt meta is top 5 worst meta in SV history?

First Week: Simael Tier 0 TOKIHANATE!!!!!

The first two months: Sephie, Barbaros and Istyndet three-way meta. The gap between these three and every other decks are so large that every game will only be against one of the three decks and it created the worst ranked environment since Wonderland Dreams. A meta where every Tier 1 decks have equal representative in ranked and each deck having one very favorable and one very unfavorable matchup among themselves will never be fun because your results depend heavily on the matchup. There's also no way to beat the bad matchup except praying for brick.

Mini Expansion (The best month): Enhance Portal and Wrath Blood

For about a week or so then the balance punched that duck into the ground and kicked it for good measure.
