I still have a problem with a bird doing more than 1 or 2 damage...let alone 6.  Are you *that* attached to the name that it couldn't be something a bit more, shall we say, fearsome?

The name stays, Smurff.
I still think 3 was the better cost but I'm fine with it being 4|2 unupped and 6|2 or 6|3 upped.

It's not just a swallow, it's an unladen swallow.

I'm keeping the HP at 1, to make it possible for reactive effects to protect against the swallow.

Last time I checked, there three birds in the game, Phoenix with 7 damage, Vulture (starts with 0, but is potentially devastating if used right), and Cockatrice, which does 4 damage (all when they aren't upgraded).

This thing seemed dead inside. It seemed like an automaton, trying to act like as if it was alive. The effect was unsettling.
Orianna made a sound that supposed to a girl's squeal of glee and hugged The Ball. While it might have been touching, it was unfortunately only horrifying.

Phoenixes aren't regular birds and nor are cockatrices really.

Exactly, and it's not like Vultures aren't substantial enough, either.  A swallow, though...just not feeling it, unladen or not.  It's an obscure enough reference that I had to look it up, and anyone else is just going to be confused about why a bird is doing *that* much damage.

Draw a few razor-sharp talons in the art and no-one will complain.

While I am all for... more complex art... the problem is that people will always complain.  It does not matter what you do, there will always be people that complain.  Undeniable fact.

That's no ordinary swallow..that's the most foul, cruel, bad-tempered fowl you ever set eyes on.
