Is it the same buy 6 photons than 6 dragons. The dragons are better, they hit hard to and survive creature control better than photons, thats why they need higher cost.
Dragons are not better than Photons, they are just different. Yeah, they have more HP and hit harder, but they also cost a LOT more. There are many decks where a Photon is much better than a Dragon.
True. For the sake of a certain phantasy flair, it would still be cool to distribute/limit recruitability of certain cards to more areas than just the capital city.
E.g., sky-dragons being a normal but very "dragony awesome" card can only be "tamed" on the windy peaks of the cloudy mountains: Besides having to pay a recruitment-cost of 3?/74? electrum one has to either defeat a
sky-dragon deck to do it or spend 1 turn/dragon in the mountains ... FFQs can also be found in the forest nearby
the air-town of BlaBlaBla ...
Then again, this would probably just cause tons of work and hordes of players camping out in the mountains.
On the other hand, "enemy" players would have a better chance to recruit some of those cards for themselves ...
I mean, who just walks into the capital of air being all like "hey guys, its me, your worst enemy from the land of the
dead. Can you sell me some dragons please?"
I'm not sure if upgrading cards at their respective elements is the best way to go about things. If anything, there should be no upgraded cards used at all.
Couldn't disagree more. There has to be some use for all those upped cards we are grinding day to day.
I mean, war is mostly unupped, weekly tourneys are unupped ... everything seems unupped these days.
While I certainly see it as a great and economically enriching idea to generate value in WoE which can be used
to improve your crew, I was even considering to understand WoE as a direct attachment to EtG:
Players that have got the ups simply have them in WoE too because that's just who they are:
A powerful Elemental that has taken many many trips to the 6th level.

Then again, the double economy is very interesting and much more fair too.
