Rasalghul said: I’m hearing that some players can’t even unlock Daxos because the second objective of the first phase is too hard. Changing the starting deck or the objectives for Daxos would at least allow players to use him.
Stormcrow said: Change Daxos' Eidolon of Longing so that it only changes its power and toughness to equal your experience if that will increase its power and toughness. Or change it so that the creature's base power and toughness become equal to your experience and it keeps any other buffs on top of that. It's very silly that the buffs from all the auras you're expected to run in a Daxos deck all disappear a turn after you cast them on your token guy.
Stormcrow said: Change Kalemne's 1st ability to cost 6 mana. Or possibly more, but 6 for a start. Reduce the XP gain provided by her 3rd ability to 5 or 6, and/or make it cost 21 loyalty.
critman said: I do feel we're getting hung up on first abilities here. Brokhan, for example, has a diabolically bad first ability, but his third sure makes up for it, plus his access to the mana boosting colors blue and green.
Stormcrow said: My proposed nerfs to Kalemne weren't just based on comparing her to Daxos, but comparing her to literally every other PW in the game. Her first ability, in particular, does a lot more than most first abilities and is also cheaper in loyalty cost.I know there's always gonna be some power creep in terms of PWs, but seriously: fetch a creature and play a support that gives your first creature haste and buffs and experience gain, all for four loyalty? Seriously, what other PW's first ability compares to that? It would still be an above-average ability as a second ability. And I'll proposing is the loyalty cost go up to 6 - still cheaper than say, Bolas 1's 1st ability - and you'd think I proposed nerfing her into the ground.
Tremayne said: @Kalazan - so you think a Kalemne is balanced? Feel free to list PWs that has comparable 1st abilities to Kalemne or 2nd abilities if that would help.
Stormcrow said: Man proposing to nerf Kalemne sure got everybody all riled up. Seems a little overly defensive of a reaction IMO. And it'd be far from the first time a Planeswalker was nerfed, even one that people had paid for. "I think it's fun" is not, and has never been, a good reason not to nerf something.Meanwhile, I'm still waiting to hear some more proposals on how to get the DvK event actually balanced. You want to do it solely by buffing Daxos? Okay, let's hear some proposed Daxos reworks that will let him actually stand a chance in the event.
