Introduction
Hello everyone! Welcome back to my Social Media Weekly Challenge post featuring the Rebellion card edition! This time I'll take a look at the newly teased cards and talk about my favourite ones!
1 - Runeseer Sevaya
This card is apsolutely amazing! Her stats are the same at each level: 3 Speed and 4 Health, which is not particularly amazing for the mana cost. The card also doesn't have any attacking capability on its own. Where this card shines is in it's supporting capabilities. She rocks with Cleanse, Protect, Blind, Armor Repair and Amplify abilities.
The way I see this card being played is with Djinn Chwala and Carnage Titan, providing them with Cleanse, Armor Repair and Amplifying Djinn Chwala's Thorns damage.
I would place this card behind Berix Snakeye so she could even Repair his armor and also benefit from Archery Weapon Training. As we heard earlier this week, Weapon Training is betting a Buff that would train adjacent monsters with no attack to the full amount of the Trainers damage. That means that Runeseer Sevaya would be getting +4 Archery damage from the Berix Snakeye in Diamond league.
This card will also pair well with any Void Armor monsters like Legionnaire Alvar and Agor Longtail.
2 - Lurking Puffer
I apsolutely love this card! I'm a huge fan of low mana cost cards with utility and huge health pool. This fellow Puffer rocks 9 health points for only 2 mana at max level. Corrosive Poison makes this card devastating to face for Void Armor + Repair strategies. and Silence adds extra layer of usefulness.
Imagine playing this monster with Goblin Psychic when anticipating heavy Magic damage from your opponent... double Silence is a good way to lock out the opponent from doing almost any damage.
This monsters doesn't have any attack power on its own. Pairing this monster with Weapon Trainer is super good because then this monster also has a chance to Poison the target. Such a cool game design in my own - giving useless ability that functions as an added bonus if you manage to give the needed Weapon Training.
Pairing this card with Magic Weapon Trainer and Obsidian Summoner will be deadly for sure!
3 - Infernal Firestorm
Amazing card with bunch of Health and Armor! This one has the new ability that gives Reach to the adjacent cards. Giving Reach to the Armor Repairing Ferox Defender in Void Armor ruleset will be so strong.
Unfortunantely, ability wise, this card doesn't do anything else until max level where it receives Demoralize ability - another ever usefull and strong ability.
4 - Redwyrm Dragon
Dragons are cool!
Fire Dragons are even more cooler than other dragons!
This monster will function extremely good with Conqueror Jacek. Not only will it have 8 speed with Flying, but it also rocks the ever usefull Immunity ability.
With Stun this card will allow Jacek teams to add another fast Stunner to the mix with Djinn Inferni and Lava Launcher. Fast stuns are etremely good since they prevent opposing monsters from taking their turns.
Conclusion
Those were my favourite new cards from the Rebellion edition!
I apsolutely love the new Card Borders and design. Team did good job on this new edition of cards.
Can't wait till 5th of December to see the rest of the set as well.
