(Rare) Mindbar

[Captain dungeness]

Thank you, Captain Jack, for answering. I asked this question because I suspected a bug. The possible bug is described here. (I consider it a bug if I can change the result of a random chance by how I cast the voodoo).

Mindbar + Countercurse combo is already too powerful in our humble opinion. So why buff mindbar more? If you weren't aware of it, help yourselves.

Well people tend to use common like flood example to nullified the countercurse then comes the serenity..I broke someone mindbar recently with 2 or 3 attempt only..and mine broke with 1st attempt

There is luck with this. Sometimes it may take 10 times other times it will take one

Are you guys are saying that 75% of all curses blocked meaning that there is a 25% success rate is too weak? Because from the math standpoint, that is extremely powerful

[Rolando]

I think a lot of us have not enjoyed the success that the math would seem to suggest. Perhaps we were unlucky or the other players were quite lucky. Anyway just discussing the prospects for change, if none is needed then all the better. I'm not going to argue for harder targets

[Roileon]

Maybe luck does not favour you?

[Rolando]

I suppose its better to be unlucky in voodoo than plundering.

That depends on what you do more of

I agree that Mindbar is extremely powerful and probably too powerful. When you consider that a mindbar will block ALL but 25% of incoming curses it effectively makes Countercurse 4 times stronger! If I don't know you have a countercurse up in addition to your mindbar I will finally get a serenity through and then it is repelled... so then I need to spend a ton of cheap voodoo on you to burn off the countercurses you may have up but instead of 1 card per countercurse it could be many cards per countercurse. Also countercurse cards can be stacked behind a mindbar making it multiple times stronger than either card on its own.

I believe this is the strongest or maybe the second strongest card available.
