This cauldron is a lot like the gold one. However, since the lessons are
discarded, then you were presumably not counting on reaching above
the 11 lesson level that this card brings you to. There are some rather
interesting cards at that level. However, many of the fun green ones also
have built-in lesson discard. Since you just casually discarded two such
lessons to get your cauldron out, you now have less of them available
to fuel further shenanigans. No problem. When your opponent whacks
your cauldron on their turn, you'll be down to just six lessons anyway.
I know. I'm being a pessimist. Unless you want to become one too, I'd
avoid using this outside of a Draco Slytherin deck.

Gold Cauldron is much better. For 1 more lesson, you get the lessons
returned to hand instead of discarded. But, with this one, you still get +3
Lesson. But, it is easily vulnerable to Transfiguration, and Dobbys
Disappearance or Scribblifors will get VERY annoying against it.

Silver, the most conductive metal on earth. Well at least I rememberd it well not
sleeping in chemistry class does pay off after all ;). Well for a fast heating metal
this card must dish out some major burns right? Damn straight. You need to discard
2 potions lesson to get 5 power. This may not seem nice but well, nothing in life
comes cheap. Well this might be overcomed by potions dungeon. That is counted IF
your opponent didn't zap it away. Its almost identical to Gold cauldron but you will
reach to 11 count on inital play. Although you can combo it with other cauldrons
(since you can have more than one cauldron in play) and a wand. This card is a card
powerful in it's own right. With all the combos you can make after that. P.S be careful
of lost notes and other cards which zap your items away. ;)

This card is exactly like Gold Cauldron, except for one less power it gets
discarded from play. I don't see why I used this card in my decks! *goes
over to decks and removes all silver cauldrons* Anyway, this card isn't that
good. You can easily play one more power and spare your lessons. If you have
this card in your deck replace it with either Gold Cauldron, a lesson or
another card that you really want in your deck. This card is not that good,
unless you want a 3 power jump from 8 to 11. The only reason I see you
playing this card is becuase you have Potions Dungeon and you want to play
it one lesson sooner. But Potions Dungeon takes an action to play, so you're
basically even with the Gold Cauldron if you count playing the extra lesson.

Well if you don't have any Gold Cauldrons and still want that high end
advancement.... i guess this is your best choice. This makes the 8-11 jump
that will give you the ability to cost those 10 powered spells like Potions
Exam. But i really strongly suggest against this card. Denial is in it's
prime and if this thing gets discarded, not only have you lost 2 Potion
Lessons, but the Cauldron as well. This is why i am so fond of Collapsible
Cauldron. People tend not to want to discard it because it just goes back
to your hand. And remember, these bigger cauldrons provide 5, but make you
lose 2 lessons. that's only one better than the small cauldrons.
