Otherwise it's just the most broken card ever.

Good cards, I like them a lot.

Ah, I see what you mean about the shuffle part, however my intention was a bit different. You reveal part of your hand, and then you shuffle part of your hand to draw the same amount. However, your opponent doesn't know if you kept the ones you revealed or shuffled them away thereby leading them to maybe second-guess what they want to do on their turn. In doing so, you make their "Human wisdom" folly because they really don't know for sure what you have anymore.

I will adjust it accordingly.

 The basic abilities you have now are cool.  :) Now just add another ability after these. If you look at the new cards, they usually have more than one "ability".

Greeks already have one of the most powerful enhancements in the game so making its other characters and enhancements too strong would not be balanced. These cards help make the Greek theme sustainable on its own and would allow a player to not necessarily need to use Good Gold on offense.
