Noise Marine One of the earliest cards previewed from these decks, Noise Marine was the first sign that I was going to have to pay attention to this release
Five overperformers in the Amber-Amethyst Starter Deck Maximus, Relentless Pursuer Friends on the Other Side The Wardrobe, Belles Confidant Rafiki, Mysterious Sage Hades, Lord of the Underworld Five overperformers in the Emerald-Ruby Starter Deck Pongo, Ol Rascal Mickey Mouse, Steamboat Pilot Dragon Fire Mad Hatter, Gracious Host Stitch, Abomination Five overperformers in the Steel-Sapphire Starter Deck Grab Your Sword Maleficent, Uninvited Mickey Mouse, Detective One Jump Ahead Hercules, True Hero The reason why I liked evasion and bodyguard so much is that these abilities deny the opponent the opportunity to make favorable challenges
But I think this card is missing something
(This matters for combat and is explained in the next section.) A battles protector isnt (normally) the same as its controller
Suffice it to say, the challenge here is all about reaching the point where we can call forth Sauron from the Command Zone
