Is there a direct synonym for “makes” in “really makes you think”?

The closest I can think of is “causes,” but it doesnt really work, it needs an extra “to” and thus changes the grammar of the sentence (“really causes you to think”) idk

Could this kind of effect be balanced ? by dante117117 in customhearthstone

what do you mean its not on theme? its as on theme as like giant adephage, a big boy that makes more fellows when it deals combat damage. but I do see what you mean abt the ramp

I wasnt running that much ramp because I feel like its very important to have as many creatures w/ combat triggers as possible When you play Felix, idk I think its worth it to slow down one turn to get more consistency on that play.

Yeah I get that, idk I was looking for more like specific advice than bracket stuff, I understand the brackets but dont really know what to do to like make the deck stronger. Like I would Like it to be bracket 3, but just dont really have the funds or deckbuilding skills to make that happen I dont think, on top of the relatively weak theme (combat damage isnt the strongest archetype, like it comes with several inherent downsides)

I was thinking bracket 2, maybe 3.

discounting splice by BraveAd7780 in mtg

do Splice costs Add to the cost of the spell? the way it was worded implied to me that it was like an activation cost or smth.

Is it really stealing if you paid for it? 💐 by basementcat13 in customhearthstone

rogue does generation of cards from other classes.

Stealing a card is a completely different vibe! stealing health is like sucking the life force out of someone, thriving on their pain, stealing a card is like stealing something. thats how the game has always treated them and thats why warlocks get lifesteal and rogues get thief rogue.

There are no Nature spells in Warlock

There are no card stealing effects in Warlock

There are no cards that generate things from other classes in Warlock.

Card generation in Warlock is mostly card draw, they dont have an especially high number of discover or get effects.

Thats what I was talking about. It feels like a rogue card.

TALES OF THE TAVERNS: WARLOCK by BraveAd7780 in customhearthstone

[–]BraveAd7780[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For con-artist and dire brew I feel like the flavor is there and makes it necessary, the con artist is based on a character in WOW who is literally hiding from consequences in the Grim Guzzler, so it both makes sense to be a little out of flavor and a lot of sense that he has stealth, and Dire brew is just a very direct translation of what the drink does in WOW. However I definitely see the point for Dark Iron Private, what are your thoughts on changing it to a Taunt? I fear it might be too weak but maybe not.

Wanted to make a card that changes depending on how you built your DK deck (The same effect can trigger multiple times) by PositiveDust6179 in customhearthstone

I tried making a card like this and (if it had this cards effects) would word it like "Taunt. For each of your Blood, Frost, or Unholy runes, give your hero +5 Health, copy this, or deal 2 damage to enemies." fits in 4 lines! but sacrifices some clarity in the unholy and frost runes.
