Reply to Delwynn Dragonscale - NEW Dragon Summoner with +1 Magic Attack - Too Expensive with 5 Mana?

I think its important to note that the new dragon promo summoner is a Common card so it can't be as good as a rare summoner.
The current rare dragon summoner cost 4 Mana and has one buff. It makes sense to me that the common summoner would cost 5 Mana with a buff. If the mana was to go any lower then the buff would need to be removed as to keep the order of things in place (common< Rare < Epic < Legendary)
I do get this point and I think it is a problem to argue that way because it kind of ignores the usability of a card. From a gaming perspective are 5 mana a lot and equal to the costs of the supreme deities legendary summoners. Is this really justified? It makes Delwyn look pale and small next to them. Putting the rarity aspect into a summoners usefulness makes Delwyn potentially a card little used by the players, as it is the only common summoner card. I might be wrong, we have to test that.
