You guys think Taygete is OK?

play 3 Shorouds, dispel Taygete, left 2mana, 1more 2drop, but Taygete still has 3/5 body, Shroud dying to enemy general, another 2 drop dying to Taygete, enemy has 5(or4) mana free, balance confirmed!

Everything is OP is Ok. but Taygete even more broken than other OPs

Don’t be silly. It’s “Play 3 Shrouds, dispel Taygete, left 2 mana, play Flash Reincarnation into Sunsteel Defender, eat Taygete and whatever 4-drop they have next turn also, balance confirmed!”

Postulations aren’t good balance. Watching which factions/archetypes are most dominant across large chunks of the population (Midrange Kara) and which are least dominant across large chunks of the population (Vetruvian) – that’s good balance.

Magmar is strong, but not the strongest. Certainly not the most common. Taygete may be in every Magmar deck, but Divine Bond is in every Lyonar deck, and Spectral Revenant is in every Abyssian deck, etc. etc. It might not be ideal game balance, but it’s the Duelyst way. So long as Magmar is not overly dominant, it’s clear that there are enough ways to deal with Taygete that she doesn’t need specific addressing.

I won’t play abyssian because of shadow nova. I won’t play lyonar because of divine bond. I’d rather lose 10 times in a row than win once feeling dirty. :slight_smile:

you know you can play a faction and NOT use the blatently OP cards. i mean you DO have the power to build your own deck.

try abbysian swarm tactics for instance. no shadow creep involved at all.
