Devs, Please Balance Dino-Roar
While inquiring about the current meta that needs balancing (i.e. Quickdraw & Stompadon) gave a good suggestion to fix two of the cards. One of them was to fix Stompadon so his ability only activates at the beginning of every new round.
Well I knew that wasn't possible because Dino-Roar activates every time a card is drawn. Then it hit me: Fix Dino-Roar and you fix all the Colossal Legendaries.
My suggestion? Re-write Dino-Roar. Example:
"Dino-Roar: Activates at the beginning of every round."
Why this is good? Two parts:
1) No balance necessary for individual cards with a chance of nerfing them to neuteration.
2) No further exploits from future draw cards.
With this balance fix, I do believe you'll have less people complaining over specific "overpowered" cards. Currently the meta is leaning in the zombie's favor due to the many draw cards they have (Going Viral, Escape through Time, Teleport, etc). As of right now Dino-Roar feels more like an exploit than anything else, imo. It's what I believe is the main culprit that needs a balance fix.
Thank you for your time.
Edit: @Azombioso suggested changing the description of the ability so conjuring cards won't add to Dino-Roar. I agree with this because there are a lot of conjuration cards, but I disagree with this because the Going Viral exploit would still be the meta.
