Changelog/Balancing

Card balance changes and fixes

  • Rattlechains: Spirits in your hand now correctly each gain 6 mana when Rattlechains enters the battlefield.

  • Just the Wind: The card’s Madness will now properly trigger.
  • Undergrowth Champion: Removed references to being immune to Destroy spells and effects.
  • Inner Struggle: The card text has been fixed. It now reads “Deal damage to a creature equal to it’s Power”.
  • Hope Against Hope is now a Spell rather than a Support. Please note that should this change break any of your deck’s limitations, you will be prompted to change your affected decks.
    – This card’s abilities are unchanged. The change was made because it made a lot more sense as a Spell than a Support.

  • True-Faith Censer: Now properly gives +1/0 only to Humans.
  • Hermit of the Natterknolls: Now properly Transforms only when your opponent casts a card.

  • Creatures should no longer be stuck in a Transform animation.
  • Incited Rabble: It’s activated gems are now properly removed from the board when bounced back to hand.

  • Indulgent Aristocrat: Now correctly Discards the first creature you control.
