Why do you think they removed those "fun" mechanics, was it to intentionally make the game less fun

Id soon rather the game lost all remaining life support than flying units regained the ability to cap bridges

They removed Mana Surge for male crystal elves because they were trying to make it easier for new players as they said. Given that there are barely any new players, might as well bring it back. It's also a known thing that devs sometimes balance games far too much to favor high level "competitive" play but making it less fun for the majority of players. Low to mid level players are after all what makes most online games survive since they're the majority.

No they didn't, they removed MS for male elves because Crystal Sentry and Thelec were difficult to balance. Plus it makes them a bit different, and elfbringer doesn't need more "this is a bad card but if you wait it becomes an op card" support

"We want to put Sentry in the starter deck, but don't want to confuse new players with Mana Surge. Therefore we are introducing a new rule that male crystal elves do not have Mana Surge."

Ye, Mana Surge change def wasn't for balance, the reasoning was laughed at. Especially not for Thelec where it doesn't matter almost at all with single big guy.

Not that I want to see it back, it's not "fun" to slap it on every Crystal card possible. And e.g. Sentry doesn't need buffs. You can try to suggest it in monthly balance channel on Discord though.

I actually just wanted it back on the Crystal Sentry and the Crystal Construct. Especially on the Crystal Construct because I suggested that years ago and was happy when they finally did that, only to be removed after a short time.

Unfortunately I think the only players left on Discord are the few players who like the way the game is so I think my suggestion will just get ignored. I think almost all the players that liked the old fun mechanics already left out of frustration...

Construct just got Haste, which is like Mana Surge all the time in a sense. And for Sentry - well, he kind of needs something to differentiate him from Wardancers, and not having Surge fulfils that purpose

though, if this idea of giving him surge and some other balance changes was supported by the stats and the community, it'd go through!

I remember the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ back then too, when constructs came out they had a summoning animation and sound, they just removed them with no good reason

Bring back Wild Cards in Solo & the original Model design of Reboomer . What we have in recent years resembles a Lump of Cack

do you want to kill the game? Wildcards are relegated to the hellhole that is Randoms for a reason

"do you want to kill the game?" job is already done :D

they already killed the fame

The Game has been Killed, and piece of Faeces like you was primarily responsible (you have personally been blamed on youtube chat/comments). P.S I often have noted its often you who comes `crawling out of the dung hill ` to defend the game as it is and are always negative to most suggestions by other players
