Card Balancing

Card Balancing

- Diminish now removes up to 3 charges from enemy hero abilities (was previously ALL charges from both heroes)

Card Balancing

- Deep Thought now costs 3 (1 cost for 2:1 card value was just too cheap)
- Ravenous Gull now costs 2 (was 1)

Card Tweaks

Balance Tweaks:
- Most creatures with Haste now cost 1 more mana
- Quickdraw Cannon now costs 3 (was 2)
- Omnicloak is back to 4 cost
- Grand Summoner is now a 1/2 that costs 3
- Rune Tome now works for 1 additional turn on rune cards, not 2
- Mana Sprite no longer has Timid
- War Drums now costs 4 (was 5)

Balance Testing

What we're looking for:
- broken combos (can kill on turn 0/1)
- overpowered cards (seem a little too strong for their cost/rarity)
- underpowered/underwhelming cards (keep in mind rarity for these)
- general thoughts about what cards are just fun to use
- also looking for hero feedback of similar content (ability fun factor/overpowered)

One thing we've noticed so far is the Gold ladder can impose some busted combos given the fact you can use any number of any card - we may need to limit this to 5 or something :)

Card Balancing

Alpha Players -
Tentative beta launch day is May 15th. In the next few days we plan on giving everyone access to all the cards in order to do some heavy card balancing.

The goal will be to look for any imbalanced or underpowered cards.

Stay tuned for more info!
