i like the idea.
turn cost decrease 1 per 10 level would be more reasonable in my opinion. or affect x amount of specific voodoos. you can choose them. but lets say 5 voodoo at level 10 and 10 voodoo at level 20. i would like to here more opinion about your suggestion. from more experienced players than me.

Sincerely Mugiwara...

Grimrock, Did you calculate out what your suggestion means at max level? Did you notice that -1 turn every 5 levels means -8 turns at level 40? Since you can easily look up the turn cost for each card it should be obvious that your suggestion would make every voodoo card (except 4) only 1 turn to cast. The only cards costing more than 8 turns are: blacklist, call the kraken, politician speech and self sacrifice.

See the url below: by level 10 this would reduce all 3-turn-cost voodo to 1 turn for only 27M gold coins and 4.6 days. I see no reason for voodoo to even have a turn cost if this is implemented. Voodoo suggestions that temporarily reduce turn cost of certain cards are interesting but permanent reductions are not.

I greatly appreciate your enthusiasm for suggestions but technology suggestions need to be well-calculated.
