lowering the quanta cost would make it (even more) OP

The net effect is -1 card +shuffle.  What situations would it be used in, and when would it be worth more than 0 quanta?

I've never had a situation when I've wanted to reshuffle my hand unless you're talking about the beginning of the match. If I haven't played cards, it's because i've been holding onto them and I want to keep them in my hand, not shuffle them back into the deck.

take the RoL/Hope deck as an example:

your hand is clogged up with loads of useless junk, your hope is not powered enough and you need to fractal more RoLs
you use this card and you hopefully swap your cards for pillars which you can get rid of instantly.

Or it is because you are waiting for a certain card e.g. Hope. you're about to be pwned by an FG and you need to refresh the cards in your hand
maybe you have 7 cards in your hand and you use this spell and there is 7/(total cards you still have in deck) chance to get the card you want e.g. Hope,
instead of waiting a few turns and get a 1/(total cards you still have in deck) chance to get Hope as you only draw on card each turn
Then you get pwned... and you wish this card was added in the game  ;D ;D ;D

this is just an example, i kno entropy cards dont go too well with the RoL/Hope deck.

Yeah, the thing is that if I have the 8 entropy quanta than I'd rather use it on an antimatter. The thing is, you can't really build a deck using this card in its current form.

i like this card. i hope that in the future more mechanics like this will be introduced to the game.  i believe the cost could be reduced.

Since drawing cards is Time's specialty, maybe you could rename it as "Changing Fate | Altering Destiny"?
Perception is the source of misunderstanding.

Why, yes. I do have a Mindgate necklace. It's how I ninja everyone.

^^ This
I don't think even 3 or 4 :entropy would be unreasonable since it has a limited purpose kinda like purify, I can really only see myself using this if I desperately need a card to win this turn or I'd lose or if I get a really bad starting hand, although it could be used as a soft counter to nightmare (if you can have a soft counter to a hand clogging mechanic) either way I like the mechanic very much

Make it cost 8 :rainbow. Or 8 VOID, considering it'll make it's way into the game someday. Genius idea?
