Kinda like the idea I saw on reddit of making it +2/+2 on two tribes and +2/+2 on four when you get a triple. The same they suggested for Amalgam, choose two tribes in the basic form, gets 4 when you gets a triple.
But +1/+1 seems like the logical and easiest thing to do. Still tier 5 tho. On tier 4 it will still be insane, more occurence and easiest to get tier 3 on a triple no thanks.
T4 +4 stats is way better than Sensei T4 +2 stats. Getting 3 tribes isn’t too hard and that’s better than Sensei.
I feel that “always so salty and sarcastic” is a bit wide a brush and I don’t think I agree but you are correct that the post you are quoting was needlessly snarky. It’s just that I was a wee bit ticked off by your post which was quite “l2p” while being massively incorrect. But as noted, I should’ve posted more constructively as the snark doesn’t do anyone any good.
Any card that just sits there and buffs turn after turn should be removed imo, especially one that can hit 4 units. Think my problem with it is the lack of interaction vs power creep. In basic, it simplifies a layer of strategy with very little downside. Hell even brand requires two open spots (brand + buff) to get it’s use from it.
That’s my opinion - move it up a tier or remove it for balance. That early tavern 4 lightfang leads to a great imbalance with little strategy required. The only thing that can stop an early out of control lightfang is a high roll divine shield + poison - which requires planning and interaction.
Though I’ll admit, I had three lightfang #1’s tonight - it is a lot of fun to barrel though all other strategies. Not a load of fun to opponents.
I had a game I hit the early lightfang setup with hydra and security and 2 amalgum and I just sat there afk for 6 turns to see if anyone could beat me and I did eventually lose to another lightfang who got brann but that was it. I did nothing for 6 turns and took 2nd.
I still don’t agree this card is a problem.
bebe was playing on stream saying how slow lightfang was,it doesn’t add any tech and at high levels lightfang alone is not enough for a win. Bran is more of an issue then lightfang.
They go change it to +2/+1 it seems, after which it will be borderline usefull.
