    Lingering Essence

    "Each time you target and destroy an attachment while Lingering Essence is attached to your hero, your hero gains 1 shadow energy and heals 3 damage."
    Is there any chance we can see this changed into something like this..?

    "Each time you target and remove an attachment while Lingering Essence is attached to your hero, your hero gains 1 shadow energy and heals 3 damage."
    This would allow cards like Mystic of the Vale to combo with this card. Jericho could start to develop his own deck based around his ability, rather than be looked at as a bad version of Zhanna.

    Lingering Essence could definitely use some love. I think Jericho is probably the worst hero out there right now, but he's still the artwork flagship. They should buff this card imo, which would be a good start to make Jericho competitive.

    Jericho will always predominantly be a tech hero due to the reactive nature of his ability. When the circumstances are right, he'll be a good meta call.

    Lingering Essence was an attempt to give some kind of proactive option to Jericho players, since you can blow up your own attachments for some benefit. I think it's too early to say whether it'll work or not, but hopefully there will be some people who have fun trying.

    I think it will work, just not in this expansion. With the exception of Treasured Heirloom, it is almost always better to leave your own attachments alone than to destroy and replay them. If more attachments are released that have some type of effect when removed, then we might see some good proactive Jericho decks.

    +1!

    How about attachments such as

    - kill all allies when destroyed
    - deal 5 damage to all heroes when destroyed
    - destroy all items/support when destroyed
    - remove all cards in all graveyard from play when destroyed

    in the next expansion? Please, please, please ...

    Completely understand what you're saying. Just I've been testing him lately and its very difficult to get your ability off more than once a game. So LE doesn't seem to be worth the space. Unless you want to start playing Severed Ties.

    Actually both Mystic of the Vale and Jerichos' abilities will activate LE's effect (it could be a bug according to description).

    "Remove" count as "Destory" becoz the attactment would send to grave, this will activate the effect like TH, and LE too.
    but Mystic of the Vale's "Return to hand", can't count as "Destory", so TH will not be activated, but strangely, it still activate LE's.
