Yo fellow guildsmates and pupils of BP! Here we go again - This is the 12th “Bobby-card” of the week for you all to comment and discuss. As always tell me your thoughts on balance, possible combos and what kind of deck you could imagine this card being part of!

When I read the title. I thought it would grant immunity lol. I like that its a hunter card. And that it draws too. I would say its a lil cheap but I really don't think so. 2cc for draw and ablaze on ally. Sold!

Clearly a pro-Victor card. Gives Raven's Gambit a run for its money.

Very similar to Gambit in the effect. It is slightly worse against tougher allies like Garg etc but a better choice against normal allies if you have no immediate answer to an ally on board.

Guys it's "ATTACH TO FRIENDLY ALLY" not Opposing ally. I do wish its for "TARGET ALLY" instead. Also, the name can be "A blessing and a curse"

There are several immune to fire cards on shadow site, it would be alternate draw option, though I think raven's gambit overshadows it. Furrion Terror, gargoyle or flameborn defiler come to mind.

If you could use it on an opposing ally it would have been strictly better than Raven's Gambit, so the current version of Blessing has a purpose as some sort of delayed Sacrificial Lamb.

Unless 'ablaze' is a condition that you can spread to your opponents, I cannot see the point of limiting it to 'target friendly allies'. A flaming sandworm or gargoyle looks impressive though.

When I read thei name of the card first, I thought it would be something for mages that boosts up fire damage...The effect itself is useful for hunters but I have problems with associating fire with hunters besides burning arrows. Like I said I have mages in mind with it.

I don't know even if under these conditions, eg attach to garg or sandworm, it would be useful cos basically it just replaces itself with a potential to one more card. And it is unique so that means if opp disables your ally using cb, cp or cf it means that u have X copies of this card for one card in total.

The alternate version: Better? Worse? OP?

I think now is quite good. Also it's not OP for Vic cos it is attachment and he can't recycle it. I have no idea for which build it would be used, but I like this version

Now it's strictly better than Raven's Gambit, apart on allies with fire resilience such as Garg, Sandworm or Furrion. So at first glance it seems OP.

Yep I meant the latter, so u can't cast it and use Vic's ability at the same time to recycle it and cause enemy ally to die. I think it is quite good this way, an alt arrow for hunters.
