So let’s try to come to a conclusion for the next tournament:
Old balance patch:
Nerfs
Vandy
Remove resist 1 at midband
Midband changes to “①, , Discard a card → Fetch any non-ultimate Demonology spell from your codex, reveal it, then put it in your hand.”
Garth
Reduce midband stats to 2/3
Deteriorate
Increase cost to 1
Ability changes to “Cannot target illusions. Give a unit -1/-1 until end of turn.”
Lich’s Bargain
Base damage increased from 4 to 5
Flagstone Garrison
Ability changes to “Your units can no longer have haste. Whenever you play a unit, draw a card”
Pirate Gunship
Remove obliterate 2
Dark Pact
Increase cost to 1
Bird’s Nest
Change Upkeep to “Resummon one lost bird (max: 2)”
Battle Suits
Change to apply to “Purple Soldiers and Mystics”
Might of Leaf and Claw
→ If there are at least 5 growth runes on this, your heroes and units get +3/+3 until your next upkeep
Buffs
Troq
Midband at 3, maxband at 7
Modify midband ability to “Attacks: deal 1 damage to one of that opponent’s buildings”
Modify maxband ability to Overpower
The Boot
Modify text to “Discard a card, then destroy a tech 0, I or II unit” modify type from “Spell - Debuff” to “Spell”
Intimidate
Modify text to “Give a unit or hero -4/-1 until your next turn.”
General’s Hammer
Cost reduced to 2
above discussed new changes:
New Nerfs
Flagstone Garrison
change text to “The first three times each turn you play a unit from hand, draw a card” (instead of the above defined haste removal)
Maestro
change text to "your virtuosos cost 2 less to play and gain ‘exhaust: deal 2 damage to a building’ "
Hyperion
change stats to 4/4
Tricycloid
change stats to 3/2
additional suggestion:
Also I suggest that we should drop the buff of General’s Hammer. First, this buff was almost never used. Second, Peace still is one of the best tech 2 specs and I don’t think we need to buff this spec. This combined with the basic aim “try to reduce the number of changes as much as possible” I this this buff is just not necessary.
Please do voice any objections
