Hi. 

I see many good improvements to the game - like new cards. 

Debuffing Zintar  ruinins many players' and my one and only half maxed out splinter and makes me very sad and willing to quit.

I always imagined a game as a product (a finished one) before introducing it to clients. 
Alpha edition and existence of SM game outside our reach and having mavericks (first, testing players) in place made me think, that the beta edition and release of the game to Steemit community will give us a finished product. 
There were debuffs before, we also have seeing upping some monsters, but why was it it all not done in trial version of the game? 

Now it looks like many new players especially those with thinner wallets will be in despair of even trying to compete with those who are here for longer or those with more "resources" either in ranking, in trying to get top ranking rewards or in winning any of the tournaments.

I hope that new cards will consist enough of death splinter to equalize the effect of Zintar Mortalis debuffing (what added effect will Zintar now have, please? As the splinter doesn't have tank healer, maybe summoner could have tank heal ability ;) ... or any other ability instead the old one ).

Thank you for your work in creating and improving the game :)

All the best @yabapmatt
