Putrid Imp

Unleash Mechanic Origins

Was the unleash mechanic inspired by Putrid Imp? Or does it just happen have the same mechanic despite being printed ten years prior...

To the best of my knowledge, no unleash was not the result of Putrid Imp. Unless you think that’s cool, then maybe.

One With Nothing Defense

The problem with One With Nothing is that even if you need to discard your hand for some quirky Johnny combo, there are numerous cards that do it better. Putrid Imp, Lion's Eye Diamond, Wild Mongrel, etc. It's not giving Johnnies anything they didn't have before.

You’re thinking Johnny/Spikes. This card is for the Uber-Johnnies that want a challenge to show what they can do. Anyone can win with Delver of Secrets but winning with One With Nothing - now that’s a challenge.
