Shadowverse

Well, it feels like what happened with the sword is similar to what happened with the Sylvan faction in Chronogenesis. Everyone was saying that the Sylvan faction wouldn't survive without the "Cockroach" unit (referring to a specific unit), except for the neutral faction, but in the end, it turned out that the Sylvan faction has a lot of good cards that don't replace the "Cockroach," but allow you to easily dominate using other methods.
Just wait, things will settle down a bit more, and you'll get a Tier 1 "Fae Dragon" / "Anomaly" + "Fast Wolf" / "Yggdrasil" OTK (One-Turn Kill) strategy.
