    Best match I've ever had. Had so much fun with it!

    What if there was a level-up mechanic, but it simply drew the Hero's include card upon level?

    The thing with A2 for me is that it's just not that compelling. Like it's solid... and not as frustrating as Artifact 1. But it's missing things to make it feel fun.

    And it still, even with include cards and heroes buffed, has this problem where you feel like include cards pollute your draws - especially with 1 draw per round now.

    I feel this idea would help with both issues.
    But to add: I think they could also add a 2nd include card to each hero with this system. It'd add more depth but you can quickly learn cards when clicking the hero shows the card instead of having even more to guess what might be in someone's deck that simply adding more cards does.

    • First time you spawn a hero on the lane, you draw an include card that's balanced around having it on the flop - which could mean it's too high mana cost to even use yet because the Hero has good stats. So you play Crystal Maiden, and immediately draw Frostbite

    • Once Crystal Maiden levels up to level 2, you immediately draw Frost Nova.

    • The next two times Crystal Maiden levels up, to 3 and 4, you are presented with the choice of drawing either Frostbite or Frost Nova. Though I think things would be tuned that you very rarely reach level 4.

    • Xp is gained at the same rate as gold normally is for creep and hero kills, but on a per-lane basis. This also helps differentiate lanes more which feels less differentiated in A2 with the other changes.
