I'm inclined to think there shouldn't be extra copies of cards that go in literally every deck. There are ways to improve Act of War's competitiveness without reducing deck diversity, which is exactly what a second Balefire Liege , fourth Lightning Helix , and Figure of Destiny would do.

So, then, we should not ask for cards that would clearly make the deck more competitve?

Everyone would include those cards, because they are good, and the deck would really benefit from them.

Or should we be complaining that GM got a full playset of four Demigod of Revenge because that's too many, and that everyone plays them all?

Or that SS gets two copies of both Pernicious Deed and Maelstrom Pulse ?

Look man, I'm all for diversity.  Even with those cards, there are still several ways you could build the deck competitvely.  But the fact (or overwhelming opinion) is that both of the new decks from the deck pack have some pretty big weaknesses, and most of it is because of the lack of things that made sense to include.

Some power is good, but I think it was a response to the possibility of everyone looking for 10 promos  that would reach auto-include status, which is practically untrue of all the other promo cards in the game so far. Where has been this deck's Worldfire or Hellcarver Demon from the community?

(I did see a Razia's Purification though that made me smile)

Well, even if some miracle happens (PLEASE) and the deck packs get beefed up, I'm guessing Wizards would mess with the lists a bit and include some (stink)bombs.  So long as that means we get a few more usable cards, whaaaaaatever.

Let's make more sense.

Instead of using an illogical format of 1 x cardname, let's do a list format, like this:

1. cardname
...
10. cardname

This way, there's no confusion as to what the numbers are, and no one is typing out "1 x" for no clear reason.

If you're using [ deck ] instead of [ c ] for every card, you have to use the "1x".

WotC doesn't care about flavor. Their forum is the only place where an ORC can kill a troll...

I recently won a game with AoW in which I never attacked and the only damage I did to my opponent was with Balefire Liege . I think a second one would make this deck consistently over powered. That is why I didn't nominate it in my list. In fact, I don't think I included any cards that are already in the deck, hehe.

Yeah, I used the [ deck ] method, it's much faster and easier.

If you won solely on the back of a Balefire Liege, and did no other damage to your opponents besides that from him, you need to play better opponents before you declare something to be overpowered.

Why would we use a [ deck ]  format for extra cards added to a deck that are not yet a part of it?  Either raw names, or 1 x format make little sense in this regard, as one could simply do a talley count either way.  With a 1-10 format, there's no confusion over how many copies to list, and your ten are very easily recognized.
