Guardian - Uncommon Holly Barrier should be a Guardian. No, because Bounce is a Smarty thing. Doing damage when hurt/destroyed is a Guardian thing (Galacta cactus, Potato Mine, primal potato mine, Hibernating Berry, Prickly Pear). Do I have to state more? It's also a Kabloom thing (Punish-Shroom, Grapes of Wrath), but I'd say it would be closer to the Smarty class since Bouncing is a more signature trait than simply doing damage.

No evil clone. Put that away. Yeah, he can be a Smarty, but why does he have such little health? Doesn't that limit the "When hurt" ability's purpose? I also think that no one would ever craft Prickly Barrier, it's near to useless and extremely not worth for its cost, so I don't think there's much purpose of giving it a craftable rarity. When compared to Prickly Pear, almost all zombies have 2 strength or more. But only the more expensive and powerful zombies have 4 strength or more. Also PP does 4 damage when hurt and PB only does 2, so Prickly Pear has a lot more potential that Prickly Barrier.

Give Holly Barrier more health. Although not necessary, I think it would also be better to make Prickly Barrier a token.

Sorry I quoted the wrong post. Holly Barrier is basically a Pogo Bouncer for Plants that has  the "When hurt"-ability and m akes another Plant. It certainly does not need more health. Yeah, it would make the Plant better but also too good for its cost.

For Prickly Barrier, I doesn't necessarilly need to be a uncommon, but most tokens became uncommons anyway. I could make it a 1-cost but that makes it a better Potato Mine, and giving it more health or a better abilty makes Holly Barrier also better.

But since it's in the Berry Tribe, it can be a good cheap card for a Spudow Berry deck.
