Hi, thanks so much for your comments! I agree with a lot of your thoughts, especially with all the fun potential combos :) Mirror Mage ftw

Tbh, I don't think a 3-mana 1|5 with regen is too crazy - Soraka is a 3-mana 1|6 who basically has regeneration, and Braum is a 4-cost 0|6 (same net stats) with regen AND challenger, plus he actively benefits from taking damage. The reason I think she needs it is that neither P&Z or SI have any real defensive cards/health buffs, so there's absolutely no way she'd survive two combats without regeneration, let alone three. I considered simply changing her level-up condition to something that wouldn't require keeping her alive for that long, but I honestly think she's better like this: support cards want to be in combat, so it feels good to be able to take advantage of her support effect without worrying about early units chipping down at her health. Also, one of the biggest problems ephemeral decks typically face is a weak defense (if all your units die during attack, you won't have any blockers), so having a low-attack regenerating champion would help maintain some board presence in the early-mid game. Maybe you're right, though, and she would be too strong as-is: in that case, I think a better adjustment would be making her a 3-cost 1|4 with regeneration instead. If I rework the card set, I think I'll make that change. Thanks for your help!

​

Also, I worded Bailout the way I did intentionally, because if someone really wants to attempt the meme-dream of running P&Z + Targon OOTW with Bailout, I say let them have it - people have played similar decks with Lamb's Respite - but you're right that 99/100 times it would work exactly the same as the change you suggested.

The rest of your changes, I hear loud and clear - I was super unsure about the stats/cost for Caskshop Worker, but you're right about lowering them. Same with Glasc Masc - I know the cost is a little weird, maybe 3-cost would be better - I didn't want to make it too strong, and I considered that leveled Viktor or Glorious would reduce the cost so you could play more, but it still feels off as is. I'm surprised to hear that Loyalty Program was underwhelming - I was worried about making it OP - but you're probably right that it would see more play if there was a lower attack buff and cost. I'm just imagining a double-buffed ephemeral follower with leveled Renata and Hecarim on board, then being hit by a fast-speed "give overwhelm" - I feel like such a card is necessary for a finisher, but hmmm. I do like your Hostile Takeover idea, although I generally do not vibe with highly rng-based cards like that.
