The last sentence needs rewording[]

The last sentence in Avenging_Wrath#Strategy says Due to its unpredictability, the card is sometimes subbed out for Holy Wrath in a mana intensive deck, but each has their merits. I'm not much of a gamer and English is not my mother tongue, but I think the sentence is too terse. I had to read it three times to be reasonable sure what was being said. Does it meant Avenging Wrath is sometimes substituted by Holy Wrath? Both cards are pretty unpredictable, but 'in a mana intensive deck' Holy Wrath could indeed be a better choice due to higher probability of drawing an "expensive" card. Also, I think it should say 'mana-intensive' with a hyphen. -- Karol007 (talk) 15:43, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

Just bad phrasing. "mana-intensive deck" should be "high mana curve deck" or something to that effect. Avenging Wrath combos well with Equality, but it is terrible against the new BRM cards like Grim Patron and Imp Gang Boss. Hammer of Wrath is just more consistent than Holy Wrath. Both give a card draw, it is 3 damage versus random damage for 1 less mana, and doesn't give a hint to your opponent about the card you just drew. If I edited the strategy, I would just take out that line completely, because I don't believe Holy Wrath and Avenging Wrath are substitutes for each other at all. This is because the former is single target, the latter is not. The former draws a card, the latter does not. They do not serve the same function. -- Xinhuan (talk) 20:52, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
Removed the last sentence and reworded the section a bit. -- Karol007 (talk) 17:19, 27 June 2015 (UTC)
