Probably but i’m don’t believe in shooting an insect with a bazooka.
yeah but its fun
so how did you get to 13+ mana
the card increases your max mana
the extra 3 doesnt just magically show up on its own
you only have the extra 3 via the card
And? You didn’t gain the mana via the card. You were just provided a breakthrough.
No , because on the next turn where you still have 13 mana, you are now effectively at +7 mana from one card (if you spend it all).
you cannot get to 13+ mana and stay at 13+ without the card
wihout the card you will not magically gain mana after 10
its 3 mana gain 4
1 now
3 later
In greedy matchups, being able to play 3-6 more mana than your opponent in the late game every turn is more significant of an upside than you guys are letting on.
There are a lot of matchups where the extra mana doesnt matter, but in the matchups that go past turn 10 it is a noticable advantage
Here is how I keep reading your 3mana is gain 4
essentially your looking at a math equation that says 1x+3y = z and saying it is equivalent to 1x +3y = 4x but this only is true when y = x and if that happens less then 100% of the time in is incorrect to say 3 mana gain 4.
Also the 1 and the 3 new heights provide are different things it never gives you 4 of anything because with no other cards you will never be 4 ahead of your opponent in anything. Best it alone can do is 13 vs 10 max mana
Here’s how I look at people
If I am talking to someone who thinks there is too much x, and I can prove 0 < x ≤ 5, then to them I have just proved that x = 5
I don’t think to myself that they’re particularly stupid for thinking this. Everyone is this stupid. And if you’re thinking to yourself “literally everyone?” remember that everyone includes me
But then on the 2nd turn of having 13 vs 10, you are now up 6, then 9, and then 12
So its 3 mana, gain 4 mana, 1 now, 3 later
You can keep fighting the facts, but nothing you say is going to change the facts
The point really being if the “3 later” is really worth paying 3 mana instead of 2.
And sincerely:
It isn’t. In fact anyone trying to win should consider this a nerfed wild growth. Blizzard even gave itself the work of rotating the original so people not compare they.
But if you’re going to the meme of “look how much mana i have. I so OP!” go ahead and have your fun too.
Just not come back here trying to claim this is overpowered.
except the gift gives a wild growth
i never claimed it was OP
in fact i use it in my hero power druid deck
If the gift gives wild growth and it is temporary then the gift in reality is just a card with modulated effect and cost in itself.
Blizzard just didn’t had to write the entire thing doing it this way or otherwise we would have something like magic does with cards with multiple effects that you have to tap mana to activate their effects.
In other words the gift isn’t wild growth.
no its 3 different cards in 1(but you can only use 1( reminds me of the magic cards that are 2 in one))
wild growth being one of them
a nerfed version that costs 3
Sure because wild growth always was in an weird place.
Were it is really dumb for 2 mana but almost unplayable at 3.
So they done a 3 mana version with some spicy on it so people not whine about the original being gone.
This is new heights nature.
but its also a 3 mana draw a card if you need it to be
Well…
The extra limit solves that problem because now you don’t need an effect for when you have 10 mana.
you can still max out at 13 or 16 or 19
“Hey, guys, we want to move away from druid ramp going forward, so we’re going to give druid more ramp and also warrior can have ramp, k?”
Giant contradiction. I feel lied to, honestly.
You played your card, you immediately got one more mana, you died the next turn when your opponent took the tempo you lost and beat you with it.
How much did you get in my example?
Can you now understand why it’s not “gives you four mana” but actually “gives you one and hope that maybe in five or six more turns you’ll get an extra mana or three” when it’s played?
To look at is as “gives you four more mana” isn’t factually accurate.
Hope. The point is hope you can get there.
this doesnt change the fact that it gives 4 mana
and i will, i will get to 13 mana, maybe not in one game, but across 100 games, im sure i will
just because most of the people here dont play the game in a casual manner, doesnt mean other do not
i very often play, just for the lulz bad decks versus bad decks
and i see that 13+ mana very often, in my last 20 casual games im sure i saw that 13+ in over 51% of my games
all of you are more than welcome to tell me i am wrong
but i know i am right
and not a single one of you has provided any evidence i find worthy of believing that its not 3 mana gain 4
Honestly.
Blizzard tells people whatever they feel like telling and it isn’t the first time.
Then the people who wanted to hear that use it was quote to justify whatever BS they think when engaging with the rest of community instead of calling blizzard on all past lies.
After that they discover they we’re lied on and make surprised cat face like they didn’t knew.
