Thanks Hero,

I think the first and foremost card that I would like us all to reconsider is Frankie Ray from the Hog set.
She probably comes in at the 5 spot in terms of her degree of correction. Nevertheless, I really think that she could have been corrected at the 1 level by just limiting her game text to once per turn.
I am a Herald of Galactus(HoG) fan.
I believe it the right of every fan of a particular affiliation to be able to play that affiliation in all it's mono glory despite unique interaction with other affiliations.
What better way to bolster this sentiment, but to maintain and or preserve an affiliation's card drawing ability.
UDE's decision to curtail the apparent card drawing abuse of Frankie was to ban her before she had a chance to make her tournament debut. This did in fact put an end to broke combos featuring Frankie and ?; Nevertheless, it also cut off access to mono HoG builds.
Without Frankie Ray's card drawing ability, it is certainly not impossible, but definitely less fluid to create an engine to compensate for all of the "discard a character with cost 4 or more" effects that the HoG theme utilizes.
Again, my hope is that Frankie Ray be errattaed to the point where she can again see play at least in mono HoG builds.

peace---Silkmane
