| Notes
|
Game text is a clarification. A New Light is just flat out too strong, replacing whatever your opponent's most powerful minion is with whatever the weakest minion in his discard pile is (not to mention the intel of revealing their entire hand). The ability has been nerfed to return 2 minions to their hand, which at least has a chance of being a better trade.
