6 quanta it was not competitive or overly powerful

7 quanta it is almost unplayable, because almost every rush will counter it.

the card is currently just a bit slow to be competative.  Needs a slight cost decrease.
you can't just start buffing "slower" cards because the meta game is fast, the metagame changes too!

Its slowness has nothing to do with the meta.  The card was intentionally gimped when not necessicary.

The card originally cost 6 and was in no way OP in PvP, but because ffq was part of a great FG deck at the time it was nerfed because the deck had a higher win rate than Zanz liked.  The fg game has changed with new cards and updates and ffq has went from staple to also ran.  Its reason for getting its original nerf is no longer valid.  The card really needs to return to 6 cost to see competative play.

Why not? Ideally the metagame would consist of both fast&vulnerable and slow&steady decks. (Aka Rush and Control decks in the same meta)

A -1 cost decrease would be good because it is very slow.

Why? 7hp is enough, as it puts it out of range of most CC cards.

If that was the problem, Zanz should have added more gods with mass CC instead. Would have been easier on the PvP metagame.
My 3 game-modification principles:
1. If it ain't broke, don't wreck it.
2. Simple fixes for simple problems.
3. Remember to fill in the holes.

Was the winrate as good as Instosis?
