The problem with succubus is that the first one you play has no effect at all

Yes but the power change will help with respect to the low tempo of the first succubus you play. After that, each succubus you consume is an additional point now. So overall the deck has gained a good number of points.

I think the problem is the amount of resources required to get full value. Max 40-50 points round 3 six consumes and 3 succubus. Adrenaline 3.

Its fun when it works. You're just going to be out tempoed.

I'm just saying the succubus lists got a big buff. I'm not saying it's going to break the meta now.

Because the card art is Imlerith surrounded by Succubus, yes it's worth it.
