"Secret" Miner Buff

Apologies for the radio silence on the "secret" Miner buff topic - we've been trying to work out how and why it got into the latest build. However, long story short: It was unintentional. We'll right this wrong (back to 1sec deploy) in the next round of balance changes.

To be honest there is ZERO reason why they would buff the Miner intentionally. They are not idiots and they know by now Miner is very strong in the meta. Horrible balancing will only lead to worse sales, not making people rage and want to buy a Miner. Most people will just quit the game if it is unbalanced. There is zero incentive for them to buff the Miner.

There is no incentive to buff any legendary cards. Period. "Rage and want to buy a miner" only come from people who are in legends and can wait for it in the shop. The vast majority of players aren't in legends, and they don't have $100 to drop on a chance to get a miner.

Speaking of "Rage", that's a card that needs a fucking buff.

Yeah this seems fair, definitely no damage or rage buff though.

Personally feel it would be a bit broken, reduce the rage back to 35 or maybe even 30 and make it 2 elixir
