So; you thought healing salve was crap? How about we give you one that you have to set up in advance, and is only 2/3 as good?
Yeeeeesh. Junk rare, or what? (Technically, what, since it was U1 because collation of this set was wonky. But details)
I would also complain that this adds yet more to the groundstall in the set - except even back in the day this was too too crappy and no one ran it. The Amulet of Kroog existed then, for crying out loud and hardly anyone ran that. (I do recall an irritating 'lets have four samite healers in play, and four amulets of kroog and.. damage isn't a thing any more. And my deck has 61 cards in it' deck.)
So, I guess this is a free slot for whatever? A Weakstone variant would play nicely into reds cowardice theme. though it would also do fairly nasty things to any red aggro deck, so a bit of a bombo there.
Ah, but one that you can trigger would probably work quite well. Let's try that. It also kinda is damage prevention; so there's that similarity to the original slot.
