Comparing with latest buid of 1.1 beta few Sorceror's cards were changed:
Steal Essence deals 5 damage now (up from 4).
Sonic Boom deals 12 damage now (down from 13).
Disintegrate deals 13 damage now (down from 15).
Also Phoenix (with 10+ Fire) can be killed by Tornado again, but it is
invulnerable to Basilisk's ability.

What about Drain Souls? Phoenix's immunity to Drain Souls makes Necromancer vs. Necromancer really lopsided. What changes have there been to the draw mechanics? I have noticed that you can now draw a low card of 4, is anything else different? Modified by Zannoland on 2010-03-03 14:34:16 | wiggin | 2010-03-03 14:48:12 |
Great that you nerfed Disintegrate.

Great that you nerfed Disintegrate. yep

I can't imagine why control 7 needed to get more HP but at least the giant got a tiny nerf.

I know this was mentioned somewhere else but I can't find it anymore. When I destroyed my own creature using Steal Essence, I did not receive the +4 Sorcery Mana. I didn't dare try it on my opponent's creature afterward. I believe it happened in the standard Online League lobby (not the Arena rules). This bug makes the card essentially useless. Has anyone seen the card work correctly since the latest build? EDIT: It was used against me today and did give my opponent the Sorcery mana. Having said that, it was used on my creature. So, maybe this bug only takes effect when you use the card on your own creature? Or maybe only when the creature has exactly 5HP?

It occurs when you use it on own creature.

"Oracle now is 8/40 creature (down from 9/40)"
Good move 
"Also Phoenix (with 10+ Fire) can be killed by Tornado again"
GREAT common sense move

Anything to weaken Phoenix is Fine by me... the most aggravating, unfun, games are losses against a mass of them.

Sweet I felt that Sonic Boom was too strong and that Steal Essence was underwhelming compared to sacrifice.

I don't know whether you meant "the bug occurs" or "the mana gain occurs" but I was able to reproduce the bug in the Arena today. I can send a screenshot via email if you want. This is a serious issue; it cost me a game tonight! I hope you guys can fix this without a full patch, or release a patch if necessary. Thanks.
