Hey @Sullixou! Thanks a lot for the thoughtful feedback — really appreciate you taking the time to play and write this up.

Design note
The core loop is self-damage → extra mana (“Equivalent Exchange”). You can (and should) use Block/Shield to absorb that self-damage so you can bank the bonus mana and spend it when it’s most useful.

About the cards you mentioned

Hot Potato — On my end it’s behaving as intended: the card applies the hot_potato Influence, which is what drives the effect, and the card is marked Strain (not Exhaust). The draw effect also triggers normally here.

Thoughts & Slayers — This one was modified in my build. It no longer spends HP; it costs mana only, so the original “Freeze if you can’t pay HP” clause doesn’t apply.

Again, thanks for the notes.

Hey! About the mechanics: it's not necessarily about exchanging HP for mana, it's about exchanging damage for mana. Ideally, it's good to take advantage of high shield buildup to recover mana!

Hey, nice mod but imo, it's quite hard to play the character, it's like he's not having a clear way to use it. I feel like the HP for Mana is not exploited enough, there is no way to get healing. Worst, it kills the sticky finger gameplay...
I found some combos that was pretty cool but it was limited by what I said before.

Here are some mistakes I found :
- Hot Potato : It's written "Exhaust" but the behavior is like "Strain", also, the draw effect doesn't work
- Thoughts & Slayers : Talks about "If you don't have enough HP you get Freeze" but the card never mention about paying HP

The class is really fun to play and the balance looks fine to me with the few runs I did for now.

Great job on this!

May I ask how can I open the modding tool? I can not find it in my game and library
