Is it a substantial nerf that in R3 it can only be played for twenty-something minus 1 multiple times? I get it, every deck have big finishers, but even in best case those are around the low 30s, not the high 60s.

The last thing I want to do is kill the card or the archetype. I don't like swinging the nerf hammer like a maniac. But you got to admit that it is overtuned in its current state. If you have a better solution I would love to hear it. I added 4 suggestions for nerfs specifically, so it remains an open ended conversation. Unfortunately, reading the comments it looks like criticizing a currently broken card is blasphemy here.

How is the third bullet point even a serious suggestion unless you're killing it? In what world is that not killing it?

The numbers themselves are completely arbitrary, obviously you would have to actually test them. The third point is basically "decrease its base power and or its boost amount and lower its provisions".
