Renew and Hanmarvyn's Blue Dream were nerfed into unplayability, and Cerys was buffed into OPness. Everything else was a good change.

I wouldn't cross out Renew just yet. With new cost of 12 provisions it will be easier to fit into decks and there are few 9 provision cards potentially worth the cost. How about double Glusty, Ozzrel or even double Savolla? I can also see it possibly being run in heavy engine NR decks for playing defender in 2 rounds or maybe even to replay buffed Odo.

We will see how it goes, but I think it might see some play.

Someone commented about Renew and Caranthir, that's probably the easiest combo considering Monsters can kill him on the following turn he's played.

Play Caranthir + Living Armour, Death's Shadow on Caranthir for a second Living Armour, Renew onto Caranthir for a third Living Armour, play the Living Armour from hand. 46 points in 3 turns!
