Adapting to Modern: Getting to Know Your Rebellion Core Set Part 22

Prelude
Greeting to all and welcome back to another new post on Adapting to Modern where I look at how I crossed over from playing in Wild Battles till today focusing and getting more cards on Modern Battles, sharing with the community the struggles, the strategies and things I do to move towards playing in Modern. Hope you've managed to have a good weekend and have been playing up your battles and earning more glint and rewards. I am back from my overseas assignment and back in sunny Singapore to continue my work.

Rebellion Core Set Cards

Similar to the previous post for this series, we will begin discussing card from the Rebellion Core Set. Using a similar method when I reviewed the Soul Bound reward cards, I will be discussing about the growth of the cards and will give a simple review to whether or not investing into them will level up your game play or not. And let's continue our review and look at another 2 Epic cards from life splinter in today's review.

Harbinger of Chaos

The first life splinter epic card that we will reviewing today will be Harbinger of Chaos. 8 mana 3 magic attack orc seems to be a good addition and can be called upon by the Water Orc Archon and this card will be given enrage. Tremendous synergy opportunity here to become a super heavy hitter upon enraged. This card upon going to level 3 will gain immunity, making it a very attractive card for Noxious Fumes ruleset and at level 5, this card becomes 4 melee attack. Health stat is rather decent and the divine shield it has right at level 1 is a good ability to have more sustainability. Because of the bloodline, I would say it is a good card to consider adding to your collection even if it is at level 1.

Karst Harpy

The next card we will look at will be Karst Harpy. A card that can be used for Little League. In terms of health and speed stats, this card is good. The scaling of attack is not too bad as well. A simple stats card that can fit nicely into lineup when short of mana while giving rather decent cover and with the flying, the card is able to self protect. I would say, this is a good filler and can be deployed when you need it. It might not be a key element to start or will be game changing, but definitely when there is sufficient to slot in, this will be a good card to select. So this is like a good but not exactly critical card. If you do have spare amounts to use, can consider picking this card up. Otherwise, it is not that bad even if you don't own it.

Assessment
2 epic cards that are being reviewed today of which one is better than the other. I like how Harbinger of Chaos can synergize with the Orc Archon and make it even more potent whereas Karst Harpy is a different kind of card which is good card by stats itself but not critical to own that can really turn matches.

Rating wise, Harbinger of Chaos would be getting a rating of 3.9/5 from me. Good integration and a big attacker to deploy especially for matches with huge mana budget. As it level up, it also become a good selection for Noxious Fumes ruleset. For Karst Harpy, this card will probably get a rating of 3.3/5. While it is not critical and absolutely essential for a lineup, but to know that you have something ready to deploy with decent stats, it is quite good, though not as good like Fiends in Chaos Legion.

My recommendation will be to get Harbinger of Chaos to at least level 3 for the immunity and Level 2 for Karst Harpy as it will gain scattershot. Because they are epic cards, their pricing might not be as friendly as what people of think. If you have other benefit of Karst Harpy, can also let me know in case I missed out anything.

Wrap Up
Rebellion do really have good cards that are available and with Conclave Arcana in the midst of it all, synergies built amongst them will yield alot of advantage in the battlefield. The modern gameplay is evolving constantly with new ways to play considering the bloodline combinations. I like how things are moving through on the set releases and certainly hope to be able to learn more about the cards and better my gameplay on the battlefield.

Let's continue to grow and find path in modern as we journey on playing Splinterlands.
