and i dont know, is transference so good?? if i hqve 3 resources i always cast a gargoyle or a wolf turn 4 a chimera turn 5 a behemoth or a wolf with life infusion or mind control ...

and on the next turn you transference out a pretty good card he has been saving.

now mind control and transference are not good anymore
transference: draw a card from oponents deck
mind control: gain control until end of your next turn

They are still good, but not overpowered. They're good and balanced now. MC is a good surprise tool while transference can mess with your opponent's deck. They're good, but not overpowered.

Transference is worthless now.

Prior to 1.25 its power was that it would draw a high cast cost card that the opponent had been holding onto in their hand. Chances were that card would be more valuable than a card drawn from random from the deck. It would also reduce the opponent's hand size forcing them during the sacrifice phase to have one less option to pitch to the resource pool.

Now it just draws a janky card from their deck. There's little value in that. I'd rather be getting a card of known good value from my deck than some likely inferior card from my opponent.

I'm removing Transference and replacing it with HBM. At least it's a cantrip now, and it can offset some of the pain associated with Shriek of Vengence.

Although I wish that Sandra and HBM had been nerfed to destroy opponent's resource if the number of the opponent's resources is greater or equal to yours. Also, given the restriction, the cast cost should have been dropped by 1 for both cards. Shadow needs a good 2 drop, and HBM for 2 would have been decent.

HOnestly i think zaladar is kind of dead.. i feel like it loses to Elementalis due to there stall is soo deadly and they play more mind controls then you... just my thought cause ran into 2 of those and couldn't do a thing against 6-7 mind controls... honestly got me thinking to play that deck just the sheer fact i think it works great against the meta right now

Elementals r still tier 1... Mc is still OP! Maybe even better now.... Elementalis maybe better than zaladar but I am not sure about that yet...
