Whistly needs a nerf. Starting out with him and then buffing him up pretty much guarantees a win in a few turns. Nerf it so his ability requires 1 gem.
I love this game but I think there are a couple of broken cards that need fixing.
1. Smolders - Damage should last 1,3,5 rounds respectively.
2. Magic Muffin - Lose the chain effect.
3. Entangling Roots - +1 damage so it's same as Glacial Spike.
4. Earth Spike - some extra ability so Glacial Spike is no longer inherently better.
5. Paralyze - make it same as Blind.
Thanks for the feedback! We're always making balance changes. We'll take your suggestions into account for tomorrow night's patch. We have not yet changed Smolders' ability, but nerfed his attack power so that he is mostly useful only for casting, not attacking. Please let me know how this plays out in PvP.
Thanks, I'll do something about this. I promise you will get your opportunity for 800 coins. :)
