This could be such a cool new weapon, but why again a copy&paste blue green one? ---

Yeah it’s basically Jar of Eyes. They could have at least given it different mana colors. ---

And why explode brown gems again? There are five other colours, you know. ---

Perhaps that’s the hole point of this weapon. ---

At least it is at the pre-nerf Jar of Eyes mana cost. ---

Its green/blue and explodes brown because a weapon like that already exists. They didn’t have to spend any time on balance issues. Another example of the laziness. ---

Tbh, I don’t think it’s going to help build any bridges. ---

Not much imagination these days. We should all know the drill by now.
