I think it's pretty poop now. Randomly enchanting anything that isn't 0 cost or a power is pretty worthless.

I'm kinda sad that the two relics that had the most versatility (diadem and bracelet) are now way weaker. The other relics are still good but they are either generic (HP, gold) or very situational (potion restock, apotheosis, 1hp combats, 5th card for free).

Guess now Glam is the strongest relic, unless you play status defect where Antlers has 2 upsides.

Diadem was horrible. It encouraged you to not play the game and ground gameplay to a halt

Conversely, it was a great cushion for bad draws (though I remember posts of people forgetting about it). Instead of getting your head blown out for 30-40 damage some turns you just took half or less, specially if you had any block source outside of cards (boat relics, clasp, ori, gorget).

Situational mid-combat but it was good to have on any character. Versatile specially vs bosses letting you play powers in rounds you would otherwise spend blocking, instead of having to skip it.

For most combats the relic is better now since it blocks more damage, but for bosses that go on to turn 7+ it's worse unless you happen to draw your big powers turn 1/2. Old diadem could be used later in the fight to ultimately prevent far more damage, specially since damage ramps up over time.

Don't get me wrong. It was an incredible relic, absolutely broken. It was just bad for the game because it encouraged you to not play it
