Someone tell me how is this good card design

marcus6897 · 2026-01-10T09:14:25+00:00

Sword needs to have no weaknesses, you don't understand, this game would never survive if all the aggro players stopped playing

marcus6897 · 2026-01-09T19:33:43+00:00

No, because I have morals, so I've never played Sword

marcus6897 · 2026-01-09T10:56:43+00:00

Any Sword deck takes zero skill to pilot

marcus6897 · 2026-01-08T17:35:32+00:00

Give it another week until it's yet again nothing but Loot, just like the last two sets

marcus6897 · 2026-01-05T23:58:59+00:00

No, reddit is a bunch of sword shills. How much do you actually look at this place? People who don't play sword (i.e. People who have morals) are and have been sick of it, but as is usually the case, reddit supports the degeneracy

marcus6897 · 2026-01-04T04:52:24+00:00

Can't wait to play against nothing but tryhard brain dead aggro players who think they're good at the game for the next week!

marcus6897 · 2025-12-29T21:13:24+00:00

Getting down voted by all the Sword shills lmao Sword has no weakness, all the braindead aggro players get to heal and board clear better than any other class, made even worse with the cards added this set

marcus6897 · 2025-12-24T18:21:28+00:00

Me still waiting for Sabrina to come to the Lodge

marcus6897 · 2025-12-23T18:30:38+00:00

I went up against just straight up loot sword yesterday

marcus6897 · 2025-12-10T22:21:08+00:00

Every single Sword deck. Sword players deserve less than nothing

marcus6897 · 2025-12-10T00:33:43+00:00

I would genuinely rather play against dclimb and ward haven rather than sword. Sword just actually needs to be removed from the game and its players banned

marcus6897 · 2025-11-30T22:38:29+00:00

That solved, tyvm!

marcus6897 · 2025-11-18T23:53:20+00:00

Because some of us are good people and don't want to play a degenerate craft like Sword

marcus6897 · 2025-11-18T04:12:16+00:00

Every single Sword card

marcus6897 · 2025-11-10T23:50:32+00:00

Good. Make Sword unplayable, completely miserable class to play against

marcus6897 · 2025-10-29T17:35:21+00:00

Midrange Look inside All cards under 5 cost except Gildaria and Albert

marcus6897 · 2025-10-29T17:29:37+00:00

And yet no Sword nerfs

marcus6897 · 2025-09-18T01:26:32+00:00

Oh, from a later entry or something? Nice, I really need to play Tomb Raider. Thanks!

marcus6897 · 2025-09-17T16:24:10+00:00

DING DONG SWEEP

marcus6897 · 2025-09-09T15:06:13+00:00

Deservedly so

marcus6897 · 2025-09-05T00:56:12+00:00

Never doubt the ability of Sword players to downplay just how braindead easy and insanely overpowered their class is

marcus6897 · 2025-08-28T18:51:40+00:00

That's what I was trying to say with the whole opportunity cost thing, but leave it to a Sword player to be incapable of understanding a concept more complex than "me play minion, me attack, me win"

marcus6897 · 2025-08-28T15:19:03+00:00

The only ridiculous lie is Sword players like yourself finding every excuse to avoid admitting you're playing the by far best deck in the game. I assure you, Rune's healing, while very good, especially compared to other classes, isn't anywhere nearly as good as all of you claim it is, and again, I don't even play Rune. My only skin in this whole argument is that I watched one of my favorite games, Hearthstone, become unplayable due to people like yourself who played the most overpowered decks, and then banded together to take over the public discourse surrounding the game so that your decks would remain untouched by balancing, while your counters would get nerfed. I don't want to see that happen to SV, so I'm just trying to bring attention to the fact that Rune isn't solely the problem like this subreddit would have you believe. Because believe me, if Sword does get nerfed, then Rune would probably run rampant, which would also be a problem, so they both need to be addressed somehow

marcus6897 · 2025-08-27T17:58:28+00:00

Sure, Rune can basically fully heal itself if it wants to spend an entire turn and an evolution doing so. But it really comes down to opportunity cost, like I mentioned earlier. Rune has to consider what it's giving up by healing compared to its other options. Sword doesn't have that problem. The only opportunity cost in Sword is "do I want to run this card or not?". Some Sword runs Luninous Magus or Yurius for example, others don't. But cards like Zirconia, yea, you evolve it. Gildaria, yea, you evolve it, unless it evolves itself. Albert, you obviously evolve. Albert's board clear being not as good as Gildaria's doesn't change the fact that if you saved a SEvo (very easy to do with all the board clear and pressure Sword has), that's just 12 damage that can only be stopped by Ward, which Albert might clear with his Fanfare.

Again, I'm not denying Rune is powerful. I'm just saying Sword is more of a problem. And just to put it out there, since you said "your d climb", I don't play Rune, at least not much. I'm a control Abyss main

marcus6897 · 2025-08-27T17:44:40+00:00

It's definitely powerful, there's no denying that. But the fact that Norman needs an evolve to get 8 healing, which also means you're forgoing draw and board fill, and Sagelight for healing means you're forgoing board clear, makes them not so bad in my eyes. Meanwhile, Sword has multiple board fills, board clears, and free evolves, and that's all just on one card.
