well this is good. ( better then what we have on live for dreameater ) though it feels like people will autopick trickster 90% of the time due to the syngery it has with his upgrade line 2. ( that plus upgrade line 1 has no other good options ) also i wonder why shadowspawn is available on upgrade line 1 when he now has stealth on base? ( that and upgrade line 1 seems to be missing another ability ) so how about replacing shadowspawn with incoherent babbling and additionally giving him constriction to upgrade line 1?
No, that would stray too far outside his balance. He is fine as is, shadowspawn is just as good considering he has stealth and in some scenarios even better. However after making a stitched highlander BG I will add Shattered Summons back for upgrades 1.
what's wrong with the current build? I like that your build reduces the ability bloat, but i've always thought that the choice between stealth, shadowspawn and shadowstrike was nice as it is both meaningful and even.
I am removing Meld from all champions regardless, and I do like the idea of Stealth on base and giving him a secondary more active utility role outside of eating dreams. That said, I do think the current build is largely fine, but since I was already looking at him. I am basically going to keep U1 as additional Stealth options and U2 being the "what else do you want to do" part, which is similar to the current build.
I think it's an interesting mechanic for a card game, but given how fiddly it is in a tactics game, I think it's not likely to return, at least not anywhere close to its current form. However, the concept may return in theory.
