Talk:An Encounter with a Dragon/@comment-6102960-20151028130821

Honestly guys, this is the worst searcher in this game.

Being a spell makes it negatable, and this is important, because things like Dragon Lords are out there. Then it's a discard cost. making the card a straight up minus, and even THEN they slapped a gauge cost onto it as well, making your plays even more restrictive if it goes off.

It's not balanced by DEL or DDc or any of that. It's a straight up MINUS. Makings does what this thing does, but cheaper and more  reliable.
