It would be better if you give a reason for this Card being a "cheat", and i can say that, in comparison with dragon squadron, this card is well balanced even if i would admit to raise its cost by a low amunt of gems, because its easier to gain 50 Recruits and 30 Gems than to gain 70 Recruits, because this huge amount of recruits, on which you have to use special cards most time to get them, is a signal for an aproaching dragon squadron (or all elemental attack and so on), which gives the enemy a chance to react. If you split the cost on gems and recruits, then the enemy doesn't have the chance to react anymore.
