Whilst I really like the idea of playing a part control strategy with traps, the fact that they all trigger when someone summons an ally makes them very predictable. I was thinking it would be more effective if there were similar traps which triggered for example when an enemy ally attacks or when your hero is attacked or something like that. I think this would definitely add for more depthy and interesting plays. I mean it's just a suggestion but I was wondering if anyone else agrees.
Definately. More traps will hopefully be added in the future though. Not in card set one though, since the hunter cards are already done.
I just have an idea, if they create a new death trap ? Which trigger with the second ally summoned...
e.g. Turn 6 banebow cast a death trap cost 3, then it's my turn, i have a plasma behemot and a fire snake, i couldn't know wich one to summon in first, i could summon fire snake in first, but if it's a death trap which trigger with the second ally, fire snake would be on the board, and plasma behemot still in my hand, if i would summon him he would be killed...
Yeah I like that idea except for the fact that there would still need to be a trap with another trigger because after they've summoned the first creature they will still know what to be ready for and would be able to avoid hitting that trigger all together... but there definitely needs to be a greater diversity in the triggers for a range of traps for them to be effective i think... maybe you could have one like if an opponent summons two allies in one turn the trap triggers and you summon a random ally from your hand. I think that'd be neat.
Trap's Are Really Strong And Unavoidable I Hope They Are Heavy In Cost If They Release Some Dangerous Traps.

For traps i think it would be far better if they can be allowed to trigger by the user, rather than *auto*.
For example you lay a death trap. Some1 summons say a fire snake, then you're allowed to respond whether the trap triggers or not.
That along with traps that trigger on an attack will make things much less predictable.

I think chosing the trigger would be nice but varying the triggers would seem simpler to programme for the time being but I think there's a lot of potential for some interesting play. And of course the traps would have to be costed as to their effect.
I pretty much ignore Net Trap anyway, but I like Death Trap just to slow the opponent down or to maintain board control. I don't think we need one more trap, honestly. I can't think of that many more effects that fit a hunter's trap concept. You know what might work? Make Net Trap 3 cc just like DT, but make it catch every enemy ally played that turn. That way you're choosing between snaring a bunch of enemies or killing one. (apologies if that's been suggested somewhere already)
Other than that, it'd be nice to see more Arrow options as new cards.
