Should be a Centaur? Too similar to Centaurs?

Thomas Baker · 2012-06-01 21:39:37

Yeah, maybe just standardize the centaurs and move the scry ability to one of them. It is a cool way of setting them up.

Simon O'Keeffe · 2012-06-01 22:46:46

do we keyword the centaur ability? Call it Charger or something?

Paul Hodgson · 2012-06-01 22:52:44

Agree this should be a centaur - though still a Druid or possibly Shaman

Kieran Symington · 2012-06-02 07:49:08

This guy is definitely a bit broken. Or at least is very good. Probably a bit complex/good for a common.

Thomas Baker · 2012-06-03 20:30:04

Notes from testing: "Pretty nuts" and "Should give +X/+X on creature only?"

Thomas Baker · 2012-06-03 22:27:04

I don't think we can/should do this at common.

Thomas Baker · 2012-06-05 09:50:56

I thought this was a rare! I really think it should be because its nuts with other Centaurs, fixes all your draws and acts like a Manaplasm!

Kieran Symington · 2012-06-05 11:37:05

yeah rare definitely

Paul Hodgson · 2012-06-05 11:38:04

How come this guy got retired? Was it in the mass centaur cull? Bringing him back for now as I think he is cool. I just came across Bioplasm which is almsot the same card, just without the scry.

Simon O'Keeffe · 2012-06-10 12:36:06

Out of the 5 green rares, I would cut this guy. Seems just decent.

Allan Chong · 2012-07-03 13:58:00

He is actually really strong, better than he looks on paper. Fixes your next draw, gets big, sets up other top of the library tricks. I like him a lot, although he kept dying before I could actually attack with him most of the time in testing!
