Balance changes
While the chip damage from JBD is pretty minor compared to its healing effect, that extra 30 health on the turn it is played as well as continued 30 DPT was also helping this card to be a one-stop shop for anti-aggro. Reducing this ammo to 1 means it’ll have less impact the turn it is played.
We did consider reducing the healing effect, however we didn’t want to completely destroy the cards’ effectiveness in its role as an anti-aggro card. Instead, we’ve made it harder to get into play, giving aggressive players a bigger window to push through damage.— Update notes
Cost increased ― 5 → 7
Ammo reduced ― 2 → 1
