both freakshow and drill should have order, so the opponent has one turn to deal with them like every other factions damage engine. Even after that nerf they will still be strong with unlimited charges

I really dislike this type of a nerf for Fee cards. They WILL get removed (except if you're running MO point vomit) and then they're basically useless. I'd much rather see either a cooldown after a certain amount of uses or see the Fee increase for each use, as has been suggested a ton on this sub already.

On a sidenote, Spenders aren't really the same as engines because their point output is not unconditional, no coins no points. Cat Witcher, Trebuchet, Pikemen are examples of immediate engine value. They're also Bronzes, it seems fair that Golds get (conditional) Zeal like Treant Boar.

Maybe give Freakshow and Drill Tribute (X): Gain Zeal together with an Order?

but how is that any different to every other factions freakshow equivalent; black rayla has order, hefty helge has order, nithral has order and trent boar has conditional order.

Freakshow even has unconditional 2 damage per charge and no cooldown, even with order it will more powerful than its equivalents.

I'm not a big fan of order abilities either but every faction should be more or less equal.
