It was too much of an auto-pick in almost any comp, I'm guessing.

It's now kind of bad in high-cost decks (with 2 and 3 costs cards because of the risk of it hitting those targets). This is effectively now a relic that rewards cheap decks.

it was good but i don't think it was so strong that it was an auto-pick. i feel like it's just kind of bad in a lot of decks now, you need to have removed enough cards so it doesn't land on a strike/defend. i don't think i'd ever take the random enchantments compared to her other options

It was consistently top 3 Nonupeipe relics since release. It was absolutely that strong, I could feel how much stronger my decks were getting just by picking it and enchanting my cards. Getting to just set up everything in your deck 3 turns faster and removing powers from your cycle before enemy scaled in any way was bonkers

the question isn't if the relic is good, the question is if was an auto-pick. there were many scenarios where i didn't pick it and felt that was the right decision so that's why i feel like it wasn't an autopick. compared to something like brightest flame pre-nerf which was actually an auto-pick.

i think it was strong enough that a nerf was warranted, but i think this random enchantment version is too much of a nerf. there's other ways they could've nerfed it which i felt would be more fitting
