    About hunter's traps

    I would like to suggest that when a player casts a hunter's trap their resources decrease is not shown to the enemy. Suppose you are facing against a hunter, when he casts the trap you can know what the trap is by observing how many resources disappear. Even if more cost 2 and 3 traps are made and you can not say for sure wether it is a net or death trap, you will always know, either that it is not ar net trap or that it is not death trap.

    The changes above would be no problem for the physical game, when a player played a hunter trap he could write on a paper how many resources he has at that time, so you will know if he was cheating.

    I know that the hunter players will like their enemies being able to predict less easily what the traps are.

    In short: no.

    Why? Well because in the future there will be more traps with the same cost of those available right now, making it already pretty confusing. So don't worry, it's not an issue that will exist in the future.

    As iClipse said, the more traps exist, the less this is a problem. Besides which, there's only one playable trap right now anyways. It's not exactly hard to know all traps in constructed are Death Traps.

    I'd like to say that Net Trap is actually undervalued. It's still a very solid card.

    Agreed, both traps are very playable.

    I voted no for the reasons iClipse gave, but without new traps it should have been a good idea, already proposed, even Kyle said he was going to do so, but didn't last year (i'll try to find the thread).

    i too agree that if more cards are developed to be played face down, (not just traps) this won't be an issue.

    Hmm, when is "the future"? Looks pretty bleak, based on past guarantees...
