There are plenty of cheap and low-powered creatures to go wide with, utilizing the new Boast mechanic for extra value
If an opponent draws one card: - Sheoldred -2 life - Underworld Dreams -1 life - Fate Unraveler -1 life - Bowmasters damage + Orc army grows Now imagine: - **Howling Mine** - **Seizan, Perverter of Truth** - **Teferis Puzzle Box** - **Dark Deal** - **Peer into the Abyss** - **Damnable Pact** These turn incremental drain into catastrophic life loss
This has led to loads of games where I brought out something too weak that didn't stand a chance, and a few games where it's gone wrong the other way, and I (an experienced worrier) felt sheepish and uncomfortable
Key things to check on the card : the illustration, text, border color and size, set symbol, set number, HP value, attack values, energy symbols, and weaknesses/resistances
This wasnt just any old Basic Energy anymore
