Does anyone think this card would be better if it simply didnt have the word random?
Would it be too good? Or worse?
And why?
what do you mean, so you could target it at the opponent’s face? yes it would be better, but it would be pretty dang strong.

I think the Orb should read:
Recast each spell you’ve cast this game. (targets enemies if possible)
I mean it’s a 10 mana non-discoverable spell. Make it make sense with its high cost.

Exactly this:) Would this be too OP?

I don’t know. But why not ship it and worry about it after.
For a 10 mana legendary spell I never felt it have genuine impact the way it is now.

I think the word random just ruins the card.

It’s random from the spells you’ve played each game.
It’s restricted randomness. That’s how people used it to cast TW in wild by playing it as the only 5-cost spell and have Orb recast it. That’s what elevated the deck to its nerfing point. It was an extra way to recast TW.
Either way the card isn’t good. If it doesn’t get buffed it will remain as mediocre as now. And now that it has lost its place in wild quest mage and the standard list has a 40% win rate it might never see genuine play.
People here can cope all they want about the future but this card’s impact for being a legendary and cost 10 mana isn’t up to par.

I only played the card a few times and then gave up.
I can’t seem to make it work reliably for any deck I put it in.
Plus? It’s super slow.

You can already target the spells that count above 5 mana.
Thats were the true value of the card is, 5 mana and bellow it might not cast the ideal spell but its always something thats in your deck anyway.
The real problem is the payoff card for Galactic Orb is a bad card.
Yogg has way to many ways to backfire, the deck needs another 8 mana card to replace it.
Orb is a great card that doesnt have the right support yet.

Yea Yogg box is bad sadly, the best spell mage decks dump it in favor of more burn

after starfalls and blizzards
volley and fireland portal only have the opponent face as target
did you try it with manastorm? if you use greedy partner or start the game second orb will replay the coin letting you play a copy of GPO or something else
I think spell mage is a cool deck… the only issue besides what is highlighted here is that Yogg box kills you most of the times. So in my opinion the Yogg box should be changed

Not being any sort of card designer, I think you are right that this is way to go.
Yeah. I wish it had something that made it actually good.
i like GPO in my sorcerer’s gambit wild mage, but i know that’s not a meta or good deck I guess. It’s fun though, when it wins I guess.
You got a list? If We can’t have winning decks, I’m always open to trying something fun.
(Amazing how fun for mage means losing more than half your matches.)
yeah sure. i’m diamond 7 trash right now and forever diamond trash I guess in the past so it probably sucks.

Diamond 7 is cool. If I can do Diamond 5 reliably, I will take that, and count my blessings given what team 5 is willing to allow the class.
thanks for the list:)
I dunno, a 10 mana legendary that lets you cast up to 55 mana of spells? As long as you’re not running Yogg as your 8 cost you can get some good mileage from it, esp. if discounted with Manufacturing Error.
I’m also running Arcane Brilliance (4) so you get a good chance of another copy of it.
So not running yogg, what are you running as finisher?
