So by the sound of it next months' patch is one to actually look forward to and thus continues the Homecoming cycle of 'hopefully it's better next month' oh well, I'm very pleased they're looking to rework leaders.
I don't mind tutor leaders if it wasn't for the whole '2 cards in 1 turn' thing. Leaders and that type of ability especially have been the forefront of most (balance) issues in Homecoming.
So they're reworking all of them in one big sweep, I think that's the way to go about it. I'm very curious what they'll introduce in its place. As far as this months patch goes, I was disappointed with the Ciri reworks.
Making a cards' ability slightly better but giving it higher provision(s) actually just makes it worse because it competes with much stronger cards. Nova at least is an interesting one. Though I suspect you'll only see it in casual the next few days and then not again.
I rarely see NR play their resilience card and that's an unconditional one in a cheaper provision slot.
Look at the auto-include 10(+) provision cards in every faction. There's no way they'll be cut for the possibility of carryover.
It's disappointing because I love Ciri as a character and her having strong cards would be appropriate but idt you'll see a single one of them being played.
Furthermore the balance patch I suspect will do little to actually stir things up. I wasn't gonna play ranked anyway though as I'll just be playing the seasonal mode religiously in August.
Also I'm eagerly waiting on that Arena rework. One thing I'd like to say about that is that though I understand the Adalia/Caranthir reworks this makes Arena much worse. Cause you have all these faction specific cards and leaders in a very random draft. It's like how the whole Syndicate faction feels awkward in the mode.
