Why does 'Ring Toss' act different with Rogue vs. Priest?

Why does ‘Ring Toss’ give Mage secrets to Priest… but gives Rogue secrets to Rogue?.. WTF? Why does it suddenly change with Rogue?

Probably because Rogue has secrets and Priest doesn’t. The card text doesn’t specify that it has to be Mage secrets.

yeah, but that inconsistency is stupid

Better than having the spell do nothing if cast by a class that doesn’t have secrets.

Ring Toss should be nerfed anyway. 2 secrets for 4 mana is stupidly powerful. It should be 6 mana so that you play a 7+ mana card to corrupt it.

This is it.

If your class has secrets then any effect which gives you secrets will give you yours unless it specifies a class. If your class doesn’t have them then you get the ones from the class whose card you’re using.

I strongly disagree. Mage secrets normally cost 3 mana so you’re already paying one extra mana for the discover effect which is arguably balanced, and the corrupt effect needs to have a strong payoff because that’s how corrupt effects are. If the payoff isn’t fairly strong then corrupt cards are rarely played because it sucks too much to go off the curve like that.

It normally “discovers”. That happens only within the class your playing. Since paladin and rogue have secrets they discover from them. Since the other don’t, they discover from the base class of the spell.

As for balance I think the spell is fine.

All discover secret cards work like this for classes that has their own secrets. Everyone else get Mage secrets.

Yes, I agree with what you are saying. But Ring Toss at 4 mana is broken, and it’s been 6 months since this card was released. They need to nerf it to a very high cost to compensate this period during which it was 4 mana. So I guess, they can make it cost 7 mana for 6 more months (that means until November 2021, this year), then decrease its cost to 5 or 6. I think the right cost of it is somewhere between 5 and 6.

So yeah, 7 mana is a bit over-costed, but making it cost 7 mana for about 6 months will pay the advantage that mages had over the last 6 months. I hope you understand my point.

better question is why Priest do not get Paladin Secrets because both of them are Holy magic users

Ticatus is more broken than Ring Toss.

Because Ring Toss is a Mage card, not a Paladin one.

It should give mage spells. Thats how you make it consistent

Well no, because the card text doesn’t specify Mage secrets, it just says secrets. If you change it, then it becomes inconsistent with other cards that generate secrets (unless you also change the text of Ring Toss).

But it should not. 20 characters.

then why Ring toss give Rouge secrets to Rouge? (do you see the logic here i am trying say) it make more sense Priest get paladin secrets from it

Because Rogue has secrets. Priest doesn’t, so it defaults to secrets from the card’s class.

you amazed me by how your ignored point I was making so I make it easier for you

why does none-secret classes not get the secrets closes to them by default like Priest is Holy and paladin is Holy so why does it not make it so Priest can Pulls from Paladin secret Pool that would make more sense then pulling from Mages Pool or Warrior (some how) get a Rouge secret if they use it
