At the end of last season several new reward cards were launched, and among them a rather explosive and controversial. It's the rare neutral Gremlin Blaster card!

"These little daredevils have the special ability to handle highly explosive objects without accidentally exploding themselves… usually. When Kobolds are nervous about blowing a cavern open, they often call in the services of a Gremlin Blaster. They smell terrible and they're incredibly rude." to Kobolds, but when a powerful but lightweight explosion is needed, Gremlin Blasters are always the best for the job. "

Originally designed with Redemption ability...

"When this monster dies, it does 2 damage to all enemy monsters"

In no armored + low-mana battles, low hit point monsters became virtually unusable due to how quickly they were killed.

It was modified after just 1 day due to the mess it was causing!

While the common Cursed Slimeball of Death splint card and the epic Thunderbird of the Life splint need level 6 (respectively 100 and 46 cards) to acquire this ability, Gremelin already had the innate ability to blow it all up!

In this battle that I lost in a Silver League tournament, we can see how Gremelin in conjunction with the Angel of Life became even more devastating as it went into action for the second time after being resurrected:

@marianaemilia versus @akomoajong

I was already getting ready to use the same strategy and was also keen to get a Gremelin Blaster gold foil when the game's developer team decided to modify the card's stats, removing the ability to Redemption and replacing it with a "simple" one Blast.

At least I'll be free of this torment I suffered in this battle I shared. :D

What's up? What did you think of the card before and after the modification? Could they not maintain his ability when he reached higher levels? With just blast is the card still good?

Thanks for reading and see you next time!
