After turn 10, I used Theotar, then double cross activated (drew cards), those cards were in my discover pool and one of them was wicked stab. I chose it and when i stole it it was 4 dmg (even tho i had 10 mana crystals).
How much mana did your opponent have? Because it only increases ranks when drawn. If they had 9 mana, they’d have drawn it, it would go to rank 2, then you’d have stolen it, it would stay at rank 2.
If this was true, cards that upgrade at mana thresholds would never upgrade if you reach a mana threshold while they are in your hand or if you discover them, which is definitely not the case
Good point. I still think it must have something to do with being in your opponent’s hand first, that disrupts when it increases its rank.
