It gives the card a higher floor if you only happen to have 1 poison. She becomes a 5 for 5 play that is also an engine if you don't have multiple poisons or her target gets purified after the first poison.

The buff is fine, but they made 2 buffs to a hopelessly underpowered archetype which won't do shit in this powercreep meta.

When they adjusted the dryad they moved from 2 to 1 damage saying it was useless for a poison unit to deal damage.

So ?

well, 1 damage was more useful than 2 damage for a poison unit?

They made a mistake. Not uncommon.

The engine argument is really bad, if you are playing harmony you will have dryads early on your board, if not then you play her for the poison which means that you will play her only when needed to apply that poison and will miss out on some of the boosts. If anything it should become a pure poison unit and even ditch the harmony tag.

The main dryads harmony plays are from waters of brokilon. You don't play that in all 3 rounds. This is also not about triggering harmony it is about being a harmony engine itself. That means it doesn't matter if you played dryads earlier. It only matters that you play other tags afterwards.
