I think a hypothetical fix can be pretty easy: you keep the “Demons cost health this turn” effect only, and set mana cost when you want this to come online, turn 5 or 6 probably (this is definitely a mid-game effect - it’s broken too early on and loses value too late when mana isn’t an issue anymore).
Then you can try to use up all your remaining health to drop as many demons as possible finishing with a Jaraxxus or Mal’Ganis to seal yourself off.
There’s really no easy way to fix this - raising the cost defeats the purpose of the effect, and allowing the card to exist at such a low cost defeats a lot of design principles of Hearthstone. Look at Summoning Portal - it’s a 4 mana 0/4 and won’t lower the cost of minions below 1.
Your best bet, for a similar effect is something like:
“The next Demon you play this turn costs (X) less. Give that minion +Y/ +Y and charge. Deal X damage to your hero.”
And then pick some arbitrary fair numbers for X and Y, like 4 and 2 - though at this point you’re just giving Warlock a kinda-sorta Innervate, and the added buff and charge almost wholly negates the “cost” of health, so even then it’s still kinda busted. I’d argue to omit charge entirely since it’s not really a Warlock ability (save for Doomguard who comes at the additional cost of a whopping 2 discards).
This card is definitely an aggro-oriented card, it’s not a control-oriented card.
Polymorph costs 4 mana. Mages cant deal with big threats on the first few turns, except freeze it and wait.
There isnt a single class that can deal with more than one minion on turn 2. Having multiple big threats is an instant victory.
I dont know why someone would wait for Wilfred’s effect. People dont even play him because the effect is so bad, its not good enough for how bad a 4/4 on turn 6 is.
Also, Coin this then Jaraxxus gives you a infinite series of 6/6 infernals, and you pay the cost before Jaraxxus is summoned. It’s incredibly good.
This card isn’t focusing on summoning demons on early game, but more focus on late game. Besides if you play this early, it would get wasted by being destroyed (Priest and Hunter), transmogrified (Mage), put back to your hand (Rogue). But then again, doing so will make you suffer as well since you’re summoning bigger demons.
If I have two of these in my hands, I would save it for Wilfred Fizzlebang. Thanks to Wilfred’s effect, 0 mana means 0 health loss.
Nope. Jaraxxus won’t be affected by this card since it cost 9 to summon him. Even if I made this card 1 mana cost, summoning Jaraxxus would waste this card since you become the Eredar Lord.
Fearless Doomguard and Infernals in opening hand makes this a OTK on turn 3. Even if it wasn’t a kill, people are currently up in arm about how Shamans are overpowered for having a 4mana 7/7, and you’re giving warlocks multiple 9/9 for 3 mana?
Edit: OH MY GOD! It’s actually 2 mana. That’s even worse. This means you can literally coin several 9/9 minions with Charge on your first turn.
Edited because: Thought it was 3 mana at first.
