Replace Pyromancers Gauntlet with winter orb #34

Closed Luggsie closed 9 years ago

Luggsie commented 9 years ago

A red only card in the artefact slot? would like to see a more generic card that supports more archetypes here.

Winter orb is one possibility with prison/weenie being more achievable.

We should cut Gustha's Scepter before Pyromancer's Gauntlet. I'm happy to add Winter Orb if others agree it's good for the game.

Luggsie commented 9 years ago

we have geddon, balance, and hikori already?

I did think it might be a bit too nasty.

Winter Orb is more versatile than Hokori since it can also be played in artifact-heavy blue decks, so there's an argument for its inclusion. The question is whether games involving Winter Orb are interesting. I tend to think they are, as they're constrained in an unusual way.

I think its interesting as its a card that requires investment during deck drafting and building phases specifically.

A card that's of little value unless you have a strategy that supports it which makes it interesting. Just adds a little more to the mix than creature/removal

Sure. Would you mind checking that we have one, @Luggsie?
