SciFi buff ideas
Following up ont the different threads pointing out that SciFi is lagging behind other themes, my 2cts on potential buff ideas:
Legendary:
- Mecha Timmy: got nerfed a bit too much. He is one of the few legendaries that is not that good at lv3. Pope lv4 has more attack than Mecha lv3 => Slightly improve his stats
- Six Element Randy: another below average lv3 legendary, worse than lv4 epic Randies. However at lv4 SER is a beast => To be honest, I'd rather nerf a bit Pocahontas than buffing the stats of SER as I'm concerned that at lv4 he would be too OP
Epic:
- Gizmo Ike: challenger for the worst epic of the game (he is good in PvE but who cares...) => Option 1 : buff his clones so that they have the same stats as the original, Option 2: buff the motion speed and his stats so that he can beat a choirboy in 1v1
- Program Stan: he is overall OK but not great for an epic. The new Stan 'Toolshed' has better stats lv4 than lv5 Program Stan! => Buff his charge to 3 sec or/and buff his stats
- Bounty Hunter Kyle: he deserved a nerf but again it was overdone. He is crushed by Incan, arrowstorm, etc. that are way more frequent since the Adv buff. His lower dmg makes him difficult to kill anything but rat to activate his heal => Slightly buff his stats
- Alien Drone: already buffed and now quite good. Apparently unholy combustion works on him since the last patch => Fix his immunity to UC. Maybe make him immune to other effects like freeze
Rare:
- Hyperdrive: arguably one of the worst cards in the game. Simply not worth it for 4 costs. Even at 3 costs I don't think it would be played => Option 1: decrease cost to 3 + increase (double?) duration, Option 2: decrease cost to 2 (and slighlty decrease its duration if needed)
- Ice sniper Wendy: great charge but too low stats => Buff her health
- Warboy week: his last buff definitely helped him a lot. I just find that the RNG aspect of his warcry is stupid => Set a fixed ~4s warcry duration
Common:
- Asto Butters: I like his deathwish, but he has pathetic attack speed and stats. Paladin is a simply better version of Butters on all aspects (Paladin can even survive a hit by Astro by 2HP!) => slightly buff his attack dmg and speed
- Freeze Ray: OK card but not great and not played in competitive games (except for rare dougies gimmick combos). At 2 cost it would be too OP though => Maybe increase the duration to 5s
NB: the worst thing would be to have a (new ?) completely OP Legendary and the rest below average/crap (I hate the overbuff done to Incan Craig while most other Adv cards are still bad). Also, I am not convinced we need to have hard removal spell for this theme
Let me know what you think and if you have other ideas. Let's give some love to SciFi
