Dead of Winter, dead of Summer [Fixed]

The_Fab

You all probably spotted Dead of Winter in the Facebook preview as The chase Card, the most brutal, even more than Angel of Destiny. 

I say hold your pinkies, because what the card reads and what it actually does on the field is somewhat different. 

I’m talking about the last effect that is supposed to have the opponent lose an amount of life equal to 10 times the number of snow gems. I tested the card for about 10 times in TG but the best amount of life lost by Greg is twice the amount of snow gems. 

Don’t get me wrong, the card is still good though but not the super OP game stopper as we anticipated. 

So will the card text be changed to match the actual effect or will the effect be upgraded to match the text? I hope we will have the answer before the end of winter.

Here is a video showing what The_Fab just explained.

As you can see my creatures got a 22 power buff and Greg took 44 damage. So the card hits Greg for 2 times X snow gems instead of 10 times X snow gems.

Of course, it is a binary number. Why didn’t anyone catch that?

I'd rather they changed the text and kept the effect.

3 X snow gems would be nice

Guess the difference between 10 and 2 got lost in translation somewhere *facepalm*
Seems much more reasonable at 2x though, maybe it was a last second balancing nerf and they just forgot to fix the text?

It would be so nice to get any official answer to this.
I mean I am fine with the card the way it works, but this is highly misleading and that's not what I want from any developer in any game.

Maybe Marcella can give us the devs opinion on the card?
Just say whoops that's a mistake, it's the wrong text or effect and we will be fine with it.
Ten times the number of snow instantly looked veeeery overpowered and a lot of ppl might be mislead, to focus all their currency on getting a copy of it and might be a bit let down once they finally aquire it...

I'm not saying this is done on purpose, but I will admit the thought rushed through my tiny brain...
😂🤣

The ‘Fix’  being the text or the effect?
