Renown
Key "Build around mes"
Let's start with a Renown distribution (commons & uncommons only)
Pretty clear theme for "white/green" but red is certainly very respectable as well.
Enchantments
I like the gold card pointing DIRECTLY AT the theme. First we'll look at just Auras (better to fetch)
Personally I don't think Murder Investigation is super playable but I could be hilariously wrong. Anyway, three playables in blue and white but don't sleep on red's decent enchantments that at least impact the board.
Prowess
WTF?Huh. Interesting synergies with Spell Mastery too, rewarding instants and sorceries. Only two, so I don't think we're seeing a KTK/DTK massive all-prowess all-the-time deck, but let's see what's out there for Prowess-able spells. Selecting instants that aren't counterspells.
Probably not a deck per se (too few too situational creatures) but kind of an interesting half-hearted push. Be interesting to see where this goes.
Thopters
It looks like blue/red, sharing the artifact affinity, might bleed over into a flying/tempo/prowess something-or-other?
Elves
And the elf fuel
That's actually a pretty decent balance between playable cards ("C") with some occasional upside. I don't think the sheer power is there with an all-elf all the time, you'll need other finishers. But if black and green are reasonably open I think you'll enjoy yourself.
Hi Jed!
ReplyDeletetour de force post. i love it
ReplyDeleteAwww, it's good to see you guys! How is everybody doing?
ReplyDeleteDoing pretty good, but definitely sucked into the Blizzard universe currently. Jed, do you play Heroes of the Storm?
ReplyDeleteMagica-related, I completely fell off the train once I became employed again, but I think I'm going to try to Battle for Zendikar if you know what I mean.
I looked at Heroes of the Storm because I love dota but HOT DAMN the grind to unlock heroes looked preposterous! Preposterous I say! Are you neck deep?
