Should Merigold's Hailstorm be a gold card?
Even though the card has not changed at all it has suddenly become a lot more popular in the current meta, likely due to it's ability to cut through armor. The card is used to greatest effect in Monster & ST decks with their abundance of movement units, allowing you to line up every unit the enemy has on one row before using MH.
This card very often can score 20+ value in most decks when used towards the end of a game, which makes it far more powerful than most silver cards and also most gold cards as well.
If the card was changed to gold a few things would happen:
- Players would have to more strongly consider whether the card fits with their deck so they can get the most value out of it rather than just putting it in every deck.
- Eithné would no longer be able to resurrect the card from the graveyard.
- Nature's gift will no longer be able to play the card from the deck.
- Royal Decree would be able to play the card from your deck.
- Aglaïs would no longer be able to play the card from your opponents graveyard.
It's worth thinking about the balance and if you could see the card as a match for other gold cards like RNR, Drought & Assassination.
