Not impressed with the skill changes

There was nothing "strategic" about AST. That's nothing but rose-colored glasses talking.

ASTs pulled for Balance. If it wasn't Balance, they used it for AoE enhance or feeding to Lord/Lady. Now it's easier to pull Balance, since they're all Balance... you just have to watch for the right seal and match with melee or ranged.

If you try to use rose-colored glasses as an argument you should also uphold integrity + stay with facts.

Before AST had access to 6 unique card effects which offered you choice, even though some of them were heavily favored compared to others, but now every card does the same in granting a 6%/3% damage buff, except Lord/Lady.
Where do you see rose-colored glasses in effect?
