I think Ward is a pretty elegant solution to the problems of shroud and hexproof. The dev complexity it adds could be an issue, but the calibration options it provides are great. I especially dig when non-mana ward is on a permanent (e.g Discard a card, Pay 3 life, etc). I think that has some really interesting possibilities.
@ech@MysticKetchup If ward didn't replicate one of the classic worst rules interactions (that is better now the IPG was significantly updated) I'd 100% agree.
@Ech Frost Titan caused the most infractions at most events it was widely played at untill missing your own beneficial triggers stopped being an infraction.
