Very comprehensive list, offering an excellent overview of the strategic efficacy of each new card. But I expect no less from my brother in arms! βοΈπ«‘βοΈ
What I particularly liked, is how you identified the cards that seem a bit discombobulated, and called 'em out for it! There's definitely some that leave you scratching your head. π₯΄
There are 2 cards I'd like to offer a contending view on, however ;)
Night Reaper is probably my favorite card of the whole set (even if Olivia is THE best card of the bunch), because I absolutely dig the card art...and I love cards, that offer an interesting edge over all other cards, even more! I've had really great success with Wingbreak, especially when I know it's a high Mana Dragon face-off. It's THE anti-Dragon meta (and atm, only Reaper has it), and there are numerous Dragon summoners this bad boy pairs stunningly with. And my baby girl Sthispa is a match made in heaven, once you unlock Reaper's Last Stand (emulating one of my favorite cards in the whole game, Efreet Elderπ₯). I would see Reaper more at S tier...but with my personal preference of the Reaper, would even put it in S+ π€ (though I understand you only created that tier, to show how powerful Olivia is)
I think Grifzi has more potential, than your initial assessment let's on. One of the best additions to Death ever, was Ravenhood Warden, and he is in basically every death lineup I field nowadays. This pairing instantly makes Grifzi a very nasty 1 Mana play. We're talking about a Sneak monster with a stat stack of 3/3/1/3 for a measly 1 Mana! Yes, Thorns be the death of him, but I'd still see him at B tier at the least.
Also really appreciate you sharing the tip that my boy @bjangles gave ya (ingenious btw Jangles π). Pairing Drybone Megalodon (and yes, your spelling is the correct one π¬) with Mana Warden is absolutely next level! π€― What a nasty monster in no Magic rulesets
Really good feedback @king-arminius, thank you!
I do like the Night Reaper, and I LOVE Last Stand, so maybe after some more play-time with it I'll bump it up :)
As for Grifzi pairing with Ravenhood Warden that's a really good call. I hadn't thought of that. I'll spin up some more sneak teams in Death and think Grifzi may be up for a promotion too next time I do one of these.
Thanks again!
Just thought I'd share this one with ya ;)
Grifzi ftw! πͺ
