Post from last week : Support for the Shapeshifter design I created a while back

Hi again !

Back to basics today, just some - I believe - good support for our beloved Ira.

--

This support is entirely directed to the Edge of Autumn archetype. The main idea is providing more ways to reequip edge of autumn, and therefore, being able to use Okana scar wraps more often.

Forge Vengeance : a card you don't want to block with cards from hand, since it gives edge back. The trick is that if you block it, edge is back, if you don't, edge is back too. This is the most pushed card I created for Ira and I believe a true Majestic for this archetype, I don't think it's broken by any means though, since you need an edge or vengeance chain link to combo from.

Oath to Vengeance : having a vengeance head jab starter makes turns more fluid, and gives you more chances to, again, equip edge of autumn back. You can also use the effect, and if this card hits, you get edge back, and Okana is still up for a +1 for later. Good value ! Also helps a ton for Forge Vengance !

Clouded in Mist : I took inspiration from warrior's side step cards like twinning blade and provoke for this. This punishes opponents overblocking your vengeance card to deny the Edge reequip, letting you reequip it anyways. it also untaps Okana, so you can use it twice in a turn for pretty good value. This should be at Majestic I think, it's a pretty good expansion slot and you can't play edge ira in sage anyway since we don't have access to Okana. Oh, and it's a Specialization because I don't want to give it to Katsu lol.

That's it for today ! You guys didn't connect with last week's post on shapeshifter, and I can definitely understand why. Support for a class that doesn't really exist isn't the most interesting ! So I'll focus more on support for existing designs and new class/talent combinations that are more realistic ;)

See you next week !

BEFORE YOU READ THE CARDS - If you haven't, you need tos ee this post in order to understand the basics of my Shapeshifter design for CC : What if (Earth) Shapeshifter was real ?

Post from last week : An Ice Ninja for a breath of fresh air in the summer

Hi again !

Today I want to revisit the Shapeshifter design I made a while back. I really love Vine, and there isn't a day where I don't wish she was real.

Not that much to say here, I kept the same base and expanded it a bit.

Mind Invasion : I want Borrowed Knowledge cards to be big payoffs, they require a bit of setup, so they must be powerful.

Dimension Shift : How about cards that are exceptionally above rate, but turn you into a hero you absolutely don't want to be ?

The Curses cards : How about turning your opponent into another hero they don't want to be ? I would love to turn an agent of chaos into one of these :)

Cape of Endless Form : The Dead Threads of the class ! (Except it's not as free cause why tf Dead Threads is ?)

Essence Sundering : Is this broken ? It's probably broken. Also warriors don't care about this at all (I promise that wasn't on purpose) -- Also Arcane Shield is pretty good, I would lose to have that tbh (of course not being at 3 all the time cause it would be too good lol). // Oh and yes I know you can hit yourself with this, it's intended.

--

That's it for today ! I plan on expanding this design even more on the future. Let me know which talent would you like to see for this !

See you next week !

Hi again !

Had a long week, so this is coming out on Sunday instead of Monday this week ! (probably will be the same next week too)

I've been pondering how to create an Ice Ninja hero for a while now. And you know what ? I thought "let's not overthink it"

I didn't create a "ton" of cards for this concept, as I think you can guess how it would look like just with these. If you look closely, the cards I created all make a up a solid 5-cards hand.

The hand looks like : play Calming Snowfall from arsenal (let's ignore the draw) > pitch Cold Preparation to hero > swing weapon for 2 > freezing edge (hits) > Cold opening > Shattering Uppercut for 3.
That's 12 value + equipment destruction on hit without counting potential draw value from snowfall and mask of momentum triggers. If an opponent has an exposed equipment zone, that's 1 more damage on uppercut and a frostbite from hero ability. Pretty good no ?

No need for a lot of explanation here, I think this is a fairly flexible hero that can be built in a variety of ways. I would personally explore an offensive midrange build with Prismatic Leyline !

What would you build with this ? Feel free to tell me !

That's it for today ! big thanks to everyone enjoying these posts ! If there are things you would like to see made from me, don't be afraid to make a request !

See you next week !
