May 2022 Balance Update

With this update, we are buffing a large number of underused cards (list below)

Prisoner's Mana Magnet space is being restricted - Prisoner will no longer be able to use this space to chain Mana Magnets turn after turn. At the end of a turn, if Mana Magnet was triggered on this space, it will now require a full turn to recharge. This change means Prisoner players will have to make more impactful decisions, rather than falling back on a game plan of chaining Magnets after gaining a lead. This restriction should pave the way for buffs to Prisoner's cards

Strime, The Brewmaster has been removed and replaced by Cymon, Head of Security. The new card keeps the same ability, but his stats have been set to 4/5.

Fixed a bug with Lydia, where she would sometimes summon two Corpses instead of one!
