Mulligan!!! SHADOW ERA NEEDS IT!

Wether you been playing shadow era since beta or Brand new. Ever had many games where you were like man I wish I could swap these 2-3 cards for something else to give me a better chance of putting up a fight!!!
Almost every tcg/ccg has the answer! Mulligan!

What is a mulligan? Ask no more!
A mulligan is where you take your hand or 2-3 cards and exchange it for random
Cards meaning your original hand gets set to the side and you get a new hand and your old hand gets shuffled back in. or you shuffle you shuffle your whole hand back and get a new hand either way you get a chance to have something more optimal then Before.

I'm going to put up a poll please vote and please let this catch the attention of the devs and hopefully Kyle so when they have time and availability from current major projects. I understand Wulven studios is busy and this just feedback from my experience and many other players who feel the same. I hope it is considered

Now I will define your options for mulligan for shadow era.

Full mulligan -1: you shuffle your whole hand back to the deck and draw back a new hand -1 less card. This prevents from
Getting a perfect start but you'll have better options then before. Mulligan isn't meant for perfection but rather a better chance at putting up a good fight! For both players

Partial mulligan: Send 2-3 cards back to the deck draw 2-3 cards this way you can keep some goodness and draw something more optimal like a 2cc card over a 7cc card. For both players.

Second turn advantge mulligan: only the player with the second turn would get the mulligan to balance out FTA (First turn advantage) this way we can even out the odds at least if you feel both players shouldn't mulligan.

No mulligan it explains itself you feel shadow era don't need it so this ones for you!

Well, there was 12 pages of discussion about this topic already at http://www.shadowera.com/showthread.php?31051-Mulligans but nothing ever came of it. It's a really huge change to the game and balance if you think about it...

Almost every tcg has it and it seems pretty balanced to me considering I've played other tcgs that allow it. To me this would be nice casue so many games my hand can et clumped and most my decks have few 5-7 drop
Cards and most the time I start off with 5-7 drop cards and will lose the game becasue of not being able to play something by t3 to me seems unbalanced and this happens pretty frequently and I'm the mulligan section you'll see something called "the shuffle bug" so this is a issue multiple players have been seeing for years I can't expect you to agree becasue you just got into this bussiness a month or two ago

Mtg needed mulligans because of land cards. SE doesn't have a need for mulligans. If your starting hands aren't what you want, then rebuild the deck. Can't expect a great start every time. Would lead to too many insurmountable starts.

There are games like hearthstone that have it and they get reoccurring mana
And my decks are pretty good I average 300 rating and did some big time competing
And in still get issues like this frequently and the mana curve in my decks are actually well adjusted
And other players as well
And this is why I suggested partial mulligan so this way it won't be too bad and this is just for everyone to have optimal start In fact I wouldn't mind combining partial and second turn mulligan

Mulligan will totally change decs... Right now we have few super strong early combos, but fortunately decks around them are not consistent to be much competitive...
I like the SE as it is now... bad hands happends in any card games and with only 40 cards decks it not happen often to me. No mulligan needed!

Id prefer sieboarding. But Mulligan's could be interesting if done in the right way

Even a well curved Deck can have its pitfalls. Such as sure, you drew into a solid early game hand, but not one best suited for the matchup.

While this poll is by no means official, I just wanted to pop in and say that the conversation about mulligans has been reopened and we are considering it again and will be listening to feedback from players...

Personally, I voted Full Mulligan -1

Woah! Rare for the big man himself to step in ... and offer an opinion

Mulligan would significantly affect the balance, as the only thing holding back some OP decks is consistency ... which this will help
