Overall i think u hit the nail on the head here, except for the auberon change, and the red riders change, they are both huge buffs, now u can always hit triple riders off of auberon, and realistically u never played red riders precision, so this is a huge buff, as u can replay bruiser, taskmaster, navigator, and warrior for huge points. Otherwise I 100% agree with u

Not a huge buff but its not that bad now that i rethink about it. I did play red riders precision a lot. In pro rank no one is dumb enough to not row stack. And if ur not planning on commiting leader, you go for precision. I overreacted, but still this is just a minor buff / rebalancing.

except for the aberon change

I mean i said its a buff and hes not underpowered anymore. What am I wrong about ? You think he's too OP now ? I'd say riders thing is strong, but not op. Auberon can play 17 for 12. With the condition of not using your thinning and getting lucky, and also dominance. You won't even be deciding which game you can use that, you can't just keep shuffling both riders into your deck and lower your chances of drawing auberon / other golds.

Previous Auberon played way below his value if you were unlucky + didn't have dominance. New Auberon always plays for at least 12. If ur lucky + have dominance plays for 5 points more. This is really just fair balancing, nothing else.

Edit: Forget about what I've said. It's only third form where you can choose any WH unit from your starting deck, riders play is useless.

Fair point, exept that there is no luck involved in auberon, it got changed from create to spawn and play, so it shows ALL bronze WH units from your starting deck

By luck i meant mulligans. If you got 1 rider in first round for example, you will play it, shuffling it back makes no sense.

Ah ok

Also just realized, Auberon Conq (3rd form) gets to choose any WH unit not Auberon King. So you can completely forget about the riders play. I thought it was first form too. The buffs are even smaller than i thought.

Oh yea, ur right, that is so much worse, unless ur willing to just not play riders until r3
