Secret History

Sorceress had its wording messed with but stayed basically the same.
—Donald X. Vaccarino, The Secret History of Dominion: Allies

Wording

Sorceress is specifically interacting with Sibyl; in general everything just wants a good phrasing on its day and that's that. If a card draws a card, it's way better to have "+1 Card" on it than it is to do other stuff and then say "+1 Card." It's simpler, it's what we're used to.
