I'm laughing at these random changes. Give the modders the tools they need.

It was especially funny with Waltz. They nerfed him and then immediately reverted it. Furson is unnecessary. Everything else is fine, let's see what happens next. I was more pleased with the other news, about the elite bosses and story mode. Woohoo, free shield!

Sounds about right.

I also laughed at the waltz. Well, okay, in the anime, the sword isn't that great anymore. Purson doesn't matter; they just added acceleration to 8, but what's the point? Who are you going to summon with Blood? Jormungandr? It's one thing to have a dragon where you can OTK with Dahakas and Zoes, and another to have useless creatures in Blood. Greymori is good, though. Noy – I don't know; they just slightly delayed his release, but Orcus is still there. Although, combined with the increased cost of Nikolai, it might actually do something. Based on my limited experience playing this deck, it seemed quite unstable, and making the mana curve even heavier might make the instability even worse.

Puppets have almost no draw and very heavy finishers. If you draw Noah and two Orchids at the start after mulligan, you're stuck. I would rather nerf Silva, making her effect non-stackable. The effect of De La Fil doesn't stack either. Nor does the effect of Kurva. The guy with the axe has a stacking effect – that's why he can reach round 7 and proc before round 8, but only if you happen to draw two Wisps. Kark has a stacking effect – but she also has a powerful drawback, and without evolving, she's just a body. And yes, Furson is useless. There's nothing for him to attach to in the rotation, and in unlimited, it's too slow, and control blood usually plays through Cthulhu + Azazel. At most, against Zeus. In any case, blood doesn't have the same toolkit as dragons, so Furson is worse than Barmaglot (who, by the way, isn't a great card either).

I would rather nerf Silva, making her effect non-stackable. The effect of De La Fil doesn't stack either.

So that players could get +20k dust from selling and disenchanting the charm before the expansion? Not at the end of 2018, sorry. I was actually thinking during the announcement of the BotS that Silva's effect wouldn't stack. Well, that would be logical. But it turns out I don't understand game design.

I caught myself not crafting enough Vials for the new pack. But out of the whole bunch, I'm missing: - Legendary Warrior (1), Sunmoon (2), and Katya (1) - to craft full sets, they are good and useful cards, convenient to put in the deck in any unclear situation, although not a must-have. - Gremoir (1) - they will nerf it in unlimited, so I don't know. - Ferry (1) - usually two are used, but a full set would be nice. - **Vira (1)** - a must-have. - Lokoko (1) - optional, usually two are enough. - King of Wolves (1) - a good legendary, but not good enough to desperately craft a full set; there are many other cards in unlimited, and I don't remember when Blood played through vengeance after Belfi left in rotation. - Vesper (1-2) - well, not bad, but I don't think it's a must-have. - Selvin (1) - I want a full set. - Thunder Behemoth (1-3) - it seems to be used, but maybe because there's nothing better, I'm skeptical for now. - Spinaria (1) - also optional. - **Zeta (1-2)** - damn, a good card. - Spartak (1-2) - I tried to play through him, but I never won, which is a pity; I need to see if I can get better with tutorials and one will be enough. - Suppressed Chimera (2) - I realized that the card is really cool in spellboost, it can be a good win condition; although it's not being used very actively yet. - Window (1) - two are enough, but a third wouldn't hurt. - **Battle Dragoon (1)** - a useful thing. - Ceridwyn (1) - reanimation is garbage, of course, but... - Yggdrasil (1) - I haven't seen it anywhere and I don't think I will, but damn, it's a good card. - Adramelech (1-2) - if I get really into Lindworm, but I don't think it's essential. - **Big Evil Mouse (2)** - it's a shame not to have a top-tier blood deck, and I call myself a blood mage; I need a full set. - **Leitham (2-3)** - how did he become a must-have? - Anomaly (1) - it's sad to meme with just one. - Silver Galim (1-2) - I've seen such rune builds. - Lyokha (1) - for the same purposes as I crafted Roland back in the day, it's a good tech card. - Seraph (1) - maybe it won't be needed after the release of the new heaven legendary. - **Terror of the Heavens (2-3)** - it's a shame to miss out on being a forest mage. - Big Chimera (1) - for a full set, although usually two are enough or just Runes with its doom. - Jerva (1) - for tech. - Garuda (1) - for a full set, it doesn't seem to be needed yet, but it's a good card. - Bakhtch (1) - just for laughs, the neutral valet pack is rarely used anymore, which is a pity, it's cool (Lucy, anja-nya). - Zeus (1) - also just for laughs, although it's more useful than Bakhtch. - **Lindworm (2-3)** - I really want to try a deck. That is, 11-15 legendaries are a must-have, which is not that much; besides, the meta may change and half of them will become useless. + what will be in the new expansion. Also, cards that I don't have/almost don't have and I'm not going to craft yet: - Stella - a funny meme, but I don't remember when it was vitally important. - Snowball (1) - yes, yes, yes, a must-have and all that, but heaven and neutrals have a bunch of the best 2-drops, so when I got seriously into heaven, the lack of Snowballs in my collection didn't bother me at all. - Awakened Abomination (1) - it will be rotated out anyway, so never mind; I felt its lack, but not enough to drop everything and craft it. - Dragon Flute (1) - I remember having fun with it in low ranks. - Malokio - while resonant portal is not in its best form, and I don't want to spend Vials on awesome special effects; it may change after the release of the addon. - Alice (1) - GO TO HELL, BASTARD, sorry, I just got carried away, I'm just glad that neutral crafting is screwed. - Merlin (1) - I have Rune. - Minty - I really feel sorry for her, she's an absolutely useless level 80 card. - Corpselord - I bravely didn't craft him all season and dominated with mid-range shadow in unlimited, where I didn't see him at all; in rotation, I swapped him for Aisha. - Twilight Queen (1) - I crafted a full set for Neftiti, but it didn't work out... - Slow Dealer (1) - blood has activators of a healthy person's vengeance, an activator of a smoker's vengeance is not needed. - Medusa - also a meme, I'm glad I didn't craft it at the beginning of the SFL, although I wanted to. - Aurelia (1) - it hasn't been needed for a long time... - Faust - I saw him once with an artificial idiot. - Pascal (1) - a meme. - Brist Dominica - also useless. - Bloody Masha (1) - damn, I should have tried to pair her with Azazel before the nerf of Baphomet, I was once killed that way. - Eidolon (1) - ))))))) - Fairy Princess (1) - crap. - Otokhymka (1) - it has been overpowered for a long time. - Scubaki (1) - I was also worried that I didn't have her... - Beast Warrior (1) - it's unlikely to become viable. - Big Magical Dude (1) - memes... - Vampire Queen - I was worried that I didn't have her, but now I don't need her. - Jormungandr - I'm still resisting him, because I often hear that Jorm-decks work SUDDENLY better without Jorm himself. I think I'll craft the mouse and it will be beautiful. - Dark Jeanne (1) - I always wanted to add a second one, but one was enough in the end. - Tutankhamun - another meme... - Gabriel - how much I wanted her in the first months of the game and how much I don't care about her now... - Zodiac Demon (1) - a meme for Jorm. - Marduk (1) - ))))) - Dark Alice - I'd rather play with Mordekai in Neftiti/reanimation. Although it would be cool to hybridize with valetcraft/scotona. - Armor of Obliteration (1) - )))))))000 - Ghoul - it seems to be durable, but not durable enough to drop everything and run to craft it. - Matriarch (1) - when I started to understand the game, it turned out that it's not the best card in the world. - Skullfayne (1) - the most useless legendary ever. - Avatar of Heresy (1) - I had fun with it and that's enough. - Eraser - I think I saw it with an artificial idiot. - Electromagnetic Rhinoceros - it's cool, but I'm not sure it's the best card in the world. - 1 (1) - it has been overpowered for a long time. - Queen of Roses (1) - oh, how many lethals I scored with her on D-levels... - Sasha (1) - I never used it. - Hero of Antiquity (1) - here, I dusted it, now I have to craft it back? One is enough if needed... - Marazmus (1) - ))))) - Cyrnitra (old) (1) - and I really wanted her in the beginning... And in the T2 grand prix, she helped me a lot... - Uroboros (1) - and I don't need more. - Pluto - I don't need it either... - Guy from the Abyss (1) - a bad target for reanimation, that's all. - Horrified Snake (1) - [inappropriate jokes about tentacles and one-eyed snakes, Azazel is somewhere nearby], in short, the point is that Cthulhu/Azazel as a finisher is much cooler. - Jeanne (old) (1) - another useless one... - Olive (1) - I was incredibly happy when I got her, but I didn't need more than one for all the time. - Mithril Galim - spellboost rune is already killing on such rounds... - Ginger (1) - I never wanted to play with her, and there are plenty of board clears in unlimited to be viable. - Ethereal Witch (1) - a meme. - Fafnir (1) - it has been overpowered many times. - Imperial Dragoon (1) - cool for a tech a-la Grimnir, but more than one is not needed. - Snake Goddess (1) - I tried to use her, but it didn't work out. - Psema (1) - )))))))))))))000000000 - Aegis (1) - no deck uses more than one now. - Lion of the Golden City - it became useless after the nerf, I don't feel nostalgia for neutral heaven, that's all. - Tzekibaba - there is a chance that it will turn out to be a good card. - Scotona (1) - guardian seitan heaven... Oh, nostalgia. - Queen of the Meme Sea (1) - I got her a week before the nerf, but I don't dust single copies of my collection for. - Python (1) - )))))))))))))00000 - Furson - ))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))000000000000 Honestly, I'm not sure that changing the acceleration will save him much. Although it seems to be used in grand prix.

Also, here. They nerfed one overpowered legendary card for mid-range Shadow, and released two new ones. Good job.

- Bristleback Dominator is also useless.

I crafted three of them, so there are still some uses for it.

To pass the time during lonely evenings, I prefer to watch a few different types of content.

Nobody seems to be posting about how the finals are going, so I'll do it.
Today's Grand Prix is sponsored by Tenko. Tenko – buy healing and get damage for free! (no, not damage to your own face) (there should have been a funny joke here)
By the way, the deck is not very good – I only have one Phylia, so I put Jeanne and an extra rabbit in instead. But as they say, it'll do.

- Tzeqibaba – there's a chance it could be a good card.

I just got one, and I'm also thinking about it. It has a cool effect, but it might be a bit slow. Garuda, at least, has acceleration.

- Suppressed Chimera (2 pcs) – from experience, I realized that this card is really cool in spellboost, it could be a good win condition; although it's not being used very actively yet.

At first, I really liked the mechanic, but now I'm a little disappointed. You need to boost it a lot, and as a result, you're constantly missing 1-2 units to get the effect you need at the moment. On the other hand, there's the Abyss Summoner, for whom it's enough to just build a deck, and she does not much less (although the build is usually a bit different).

Rereleasing Cerberus is certainly interesting, but it does seem a bit too overpowered. Compare it to the old version. And, by the way, I was still using it not so long ago, just for fun (before the release of Gremlore, that is).

Since I decided not to participate in the A-group for principle reasons, I try to only boast about minor achievements.
Also, I made it to the finals, playing as a mid-tier Dungeon hero.

LUCI, PLEASE, I BEG YOU, LUCI, ANYA, ANYA, ANYA, GIVE ME LUCI.
Even though this is a poll among the Chinese, I bet some other boring waifu will win. There is no justice in life.

I'm afraid Bellringer will win. Out of the four options presented here, Lucy actually looks the best.
