It is slightly off-topic and I am sorry about it, but you indicated that +2 is huge, so, what is your opinion about Sigrfrda'sRite whic is a 9 Provision Restore (which is 14 provisions; +5) and Restore which is a 6 Provisions BekkerDarkMirror (which is 9; +3) and Freya's Blessing which is a bronze card of Necromancy (with +1)?
+2 is not busted when compared to other faction cards. How does that Tag even matter in Francesca's context? Francesca will probably go back to 13 provisions or changed completely and she is currently OP. But you saying CoF and DryadRangers are broken is wrong IMO.
Rite is ok and to be honest about noone plays Restore anyways, so being better than an actually overprized card is more difficult to answer.
Restore is also a weird case when noone seriously plays Bekkers Dark Mirror.
Freya's Blessing is a Necromancy that has 1 more provision and does not banish (which is often not important), however again I cannot say that I see Necromancy on a regular basis.
As for Call of the Forest, Forest can hit the largest non-synergy unit in the game (Oak), can be pulled by Fauve, which does matter, given that Call is the second best target for Fauve, which has further synergy with Oak.
I feel the card would be fine at that and adding an additional 2 points on top of that feel excessive.
Not to mention Fran can target it, you may disregard this based on potential changes for Fran, however if Fran can still target Call that point remains.
Given how Fran limits the pool of new expansions I would actually want herto be completely changed or Provision restricted.
On top, of course, of the provision nerf, in case she does not get completely reworked.
A leader being able to re-use (almost) non-brickable Portals is just too much and if the faction is able to play 2 of these to begin with, using a third copy is completely busted.
I agree that the above mentioned cards are huge steps up from the neutral options, however the neutral versions are (for better or worse (propably better)) too expensive to be played at all.
Just take Restore as an example, the only "serious" decks I saw that were serious about Restore were all-in decks (actually the most are decks Swim made).
Bekker is not played at all and unlike Restore can be used offensively to instantly remove massively boosted units.
Freya is also a weird case, given that Skellige always had that card and the card is propably the most iconic card in the faction, however a 1 provision boost is not that much.
I propably should have been more precise, however +2 points on a card that is good enough to be used during a finisher is completely different from low commitment cards that are low tempo anyways.
