Now okay i dont encounter this card often if at all (i know grug plays it sometimes, and that would be about it).
But yeeez do i consistently get pwned singlehandedly by it...
I would wager that after bronze statue (and probably even more that that big expensive thingy) this is the single most powerfull card (with claimed w/ blood running a close second).

Heres what i mean:
1) it nukes any weenie swarm, capping 4,5 creatures without a sweat.
2) its use is often like training/bindeweed so it also occupies those creatures too
3) it kills off big things too (you exchange attacks, and voila he wins you loose, all good and fresh) (oh and btw also any creatures in medium range (3vision = 36 hexes aoe)
4) its dirt cheap (3 flux) and easy to get out (2domain)

*note - DL has looootsa crowd controll, thats their thing, thats all good. But Drain Blood isnt!

Please discuss.

Drain blood is powerful but totally in the DL scheme of things. I'd like to see it 3-domain, and untouched otherwise.

Yeah 3domain is probably a solution most would realistically agree on.

The way it is now... just ask yourself if there was a card like this:

3flux 2domain (cheaper than Lyssis, same domain)
Deal 2 damage to all creatures in sight of target creature.

would you play it? If it was 4 flux (like lyssis) I'd keep 3 in my deck, no sweat.

cause thats what drain blood costs(3flux 2domain) and does + the healing
(yeah yeah slight differences, you could cast this hypotetical card on an opponent which you wouldnt want to with drain blood, blah blah)
