I think it should also discard enemy highest beast/frenzy card.
and it is too conditional, maybe it should have some recruits or attack bonus if there are no beasts in enemy hand; wall bonus could be dropped.

Agreed on this being too conditional.

I like it as it is. With Far sight in addition to an Attack equal to the cost when the condition isn't met, it's still useful, and when the condition is met it packs a double-punch of reducing the resource the opponent is likely to be actively accumulating while giving you the defense you need against such an opposition.

A Far Sight effect for 13 recruits? If it was less, I could agree but 13 recruits man?

I agree it's too conditional and either way, Beasts/Frenzy cards don't cost so much anyway. At best they could pay the cost of this card. Maybe reduce the cost of the card to 2-3 recruits?

Except for War Elephant, which would make this card -39 recruits + 78 wall. (And to a lesser degree, Royal Griffin)

I like that it's also useful against the occasional frenzied Barbarian.

As a regular user of this card I like it. In fact I might think that it's overpowered in some cases (e.g. War Elephant).

However, I'd prefer if instead of +Wall effect, it would discarded highest rarity beast/frenzy card from enemy, and do some additional damage based on its cost. This would fit more with the card's concept as well. It's a hunter not a builder, right? :)

As for conditionality, I don't mind at all. Even when opponent has Petrified Minotaur (it's on the top 10 played cards) the +10 wall, -5 recruits plus far sight effect and regular 13 attack is quite good for an uncommon.

Hmmm... as a hunter I'd like to "eat the beast up" ;-) ...okay vs. barbarians you could call this cannibalism... nevertheless:

what about your recruits + (half) the card-cost?! Instead of wall+?! That would make it indirect cheaper, as wished above...

I wonder why this card has changed? It was a great counter for beast/frenzy decks. Now it's another useless discarder.

I think it fits the theme of the card better.

OK, the discarding effect indeed fits better, but why not give something special when discarding a beast or frenzy? (so the hunter would say "Look ma I killed Cockatrice!" :D )

I don't know if we could fit another non-trivial effect to the card text.

He is so freaking good that he discards up to 3 cards? (or 2) Nice and simple!

He only discards one card.

That was my suggestion for him to work better.

aka: Let's upgrade this card to discard more

I don't think that the game needs another mass discarder but anyway.

Could simply add Banish to it. I don't mind it as it is now, though.
