Interesting flying unit. In general, Ephemera looks cool on the arena at first glance. Especially in combination with the new Shadow amulet – a little house with ghosts for 1 mana.

Out of 10 packs, I got 3 gold cards (a spellsword for 5 mana, a fake with Clash, and elven twins) and 1 legendary (an Ancient Hero). The loot from 55 packs:







Dust count doesn't include the anime dubs, which I'll have to sort through manually.

I believe these guys can become an important part of new Sylvan decks, and they rewarded me (note the number of copies).



Overall, it could have been better, but at least I didn't pull a Corpse Lord, lol.

I thought Cthulhu would just roar, but it can talk!!!111

Oh yeah, you can buy a globe for vials, which animates the maps. It costs about one and a half legions. One per person. I have no idea why I grabbed it, but I already did, so whatever, let it be.
Actually, I do know. I'll animate Azazel or Cyberstrike.

Don't spoil anything.

How dare someone say that, when they themselves reposted plot-related characters from the datamining thread.

I tried to create a list of the most liked maps based on their art and voice acting for each faction, but I got stuck on the first two – there isn't much to choose from for Sword and Sylvan. So, I'll just name my favorites:



They didn't disappoint with their voice acting, and the art is great. Awesome details overall. Just super.

Well, that's the deal. I heard that aggressive decks are good against AI, especially the mean ones. Rune: I took my aggressive deck, tweaked it a bit, adding a new amulet for 1 power point and, accordingly, reducing the reactive cards. The mutagenic bolt helped a lot; it triggered a lethal attack at least in two out of three battles. I also want to praise the illusionist again. I look at him and think that the ShS community is wrong to laugh at Corpse Lord. Dragon: I didn't mess around with the OTK meme; I tweaked the face dragon with new cards. It works great; I won two battles without any problems on the first try, and I got a little stuck in the third. By the way, Roven has non-standard lines in battles. It's symbolic. Blood: The same thing, I didn't mess around with OTK, just tweaked the mice, added more proactive cards, and some trendy new cards. The first and third battles were easy, and I got stuck in the second and switched to OTK, and I won with OTK. And yes, I really like the English voice acting of Urias. He's great. He also has a couple of non-standard lines.

17 packs.
Karaboss from Legends.
From the golden golem assault, red furious lizard, young Levai, Alice's journey, fairy driver, phantom cat.
Well, hehe... But at least there are beautiful animated bronze creatures.

Having fun with this artificial idiot; I don't even feel like trying to climb the ranked ladder with such an experimental deck. The idea is that it's an aggro-midrange-combo deck, with the finisher being either a burst from the Driver and a bunch of Faeries, or the traditional SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, or all of it together. I've included all the Storm creatures I could find from the Forest faction, but it's just a rough draft for now. I doubt it will work, especially in this form. I didn't craft anything specifically for it; I'm just messing around. I'm not happy with the almost complete lack of reactive tools; with this deck, I'll be killed very, very quickly, but maybe this idea can evolve into something worthwhile.
I'm not trying to build a Neutral-Tempo deck with Black Blood yet because it would require a lot of crafting, and I'd rather spend my dust wisely, not just for the sake of experimenting. Also, to increase the aggression, I've removed all the useful neutral creatures, and anyway, Gobu the Roach won't save me here.



Update: I removed the Dragon and one Driver, and added two Wings. It seems like it's still the same, but I feel more confident about tomorrow.

So, I went into unranked matches, and this happened. This UNBUFFED COCKROACH.

Played a bit more.
1. Cynthia isn't needed; the silver amulet is decent, but it's a bit clunky, so I'll probably cut it.
2. A zeroed-out Arandor driver is infinite value. Driver + cage = infinite value (2).
3. The twins are good, as I predicted; they take up less space, and, as I didn't predict, they trade stats better. It's also worth keeping the fairies for a driver burst, and the twins work nicely with the beetle and cockroach.
4. There's a catastrophic lack of drivers; I'm thinking of cutting the water fairy and adding Fina instead. There seem to be enough fairy generators already, and the water fairy is very tricky; she got my hand blocked. + there's at least a chance to get the cockroach.
5. The deck isn't as aggressive as I'd like; it needs some kind of life support, like Eyryn, but I don't know where to fit it and what to cut. There are also too few removals; I often have to use storm followers for them (by the way, the driver is very good for this purpose; it doubles the fairies' attack, unlike the gemstone, and it costs less - you can trade more fairies, and the driver is zeroed out by Arandor). Maybe I should cut a couple of weak units with storm and focus on the driver and cockroach for support.
6. I tested it in unranked games, where people are still getting used to things and having fun in different ways; I didn't record the win rate, but it's around 50/50; the driver burst helps a lot, but in 95% of cases, the last thing the enemies hear is a victorious SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Moreover, the cockroach combo against vengeance-blood is probably even better than the driver combo.

Overall, it doesn't look too bad, but there's room for improvement. Who knows what Bahamut will bring; maybe it will become meta, lol.

From 20 packs, I got one princess (Snow White), one queen (sea queen), and one goddess (sky goddess).

They've only had the expansion for one day, and they're already analyzing the meta.



Google Translate is amazing. Now I know that the top deck is a rushing bishop, and in second place is a lamp dragon and a mediocre witch-secretary.
