What I pulled Today
Whoa what a pack. It always seems like the best packs come right after the worst ones! This pack has a T4 in the purple, a T3 in the blue, and 4 T2's. I'm quite happy with this pack to be sure. I love the art on that Shadowborne Lurker and that Human Stalker. The Lurker is quite the interesting hunter too, and I'm thrilled to be up to 8 T4 cards. That is my third Human Stalker though, so it's clearly stalking me.
Human Stalker
The T3 Human Stalker has the Versatile, Agile, and Eagle-Eyed Traits, and, while we don't know what role they will play in the games, we do know their role will change from game to game. The function of the stats will also change from game to game with many games omitting entire stats. His highest stat is 14 Agility with his second highest being 13 Sprint. He has 61 Physical Stat Points, 56 Mental Stat Points, and 60 Sensory Stat Points for a pretty hard Physical and Sensory Stat lean.
Human Healer
The T1 Priest, Human Healer, has the traits Versatile and Calming. He has 54 Physical Stat Points, 60 Mental Stat Points, and 58 Sensory Stat Points for a pretty hard lean into Mental with a splash of Sensory. His highest stat is 14 Sprint making Sensory Stat Points look a little higher than they will probably function in practice for the card and Charisma at 13. His weakest stat is 10 Endurance which is pretty onbrand for the Priest class. I think the Human Priest class line looks pretty good, and I hope to one day pull the T5 Arch-Mage. I used to think that all humans were generalist till I really started breaking down and analyzing these cards more.
Orc Healer
The T1 Priest, Orc Healer, still tickles me so much after all this time. It's such a cool tree of characters. He has the Traits Furious and Calming with 13 Might, 13 Awareness, and 13 Speed. He has two dump stats with 10 Intelligence and 10 Endurance, and he has 58 Physical Stat Points, 55 Mental Stat Points, and 60 Sensory Stat Points for a pretty hard lean into Sensory Stats with a Minor in the School of Hard Knocks. With one hand he heals, and with the other he unleashes Fury. Even after all this time staring at cards, this line is just special to me even if it doesn't end up seeing play. It's pretty sweet to me.
Shadowborne Trapper
The Stealthy and Agile Shadowborne Trapper is a T2 Hunter with 13 Agility, Ego, and Speed. He has 58 Physical Stat Points, 58 Mental Stat Points, and 59 Sensory Stat Points with his weakest stat being 10 Luck. While his stat spread is pretty evenly distributed between stat types, he seems to prioritize speed and stealth traits for a Hunter that relies less on Awareness or Might, but on Stealth and Speed.
Shadowborne Thug
The T1 Thief, Shadowborne Thug, is Stealthy and Quick-Fingered, and his highest stats are 13 Perseverance, Ego, and Initiative. He also has three dump stats with Vitality, Endurance, and Luck all at 10. He has 54 Physical Stat Points, 60 Mental Stat Points, and 59 Sensory Stat Points leaning hard towards Mental and Sensory stats with a pretty large weakness in Physical Stats. I really like the Shadowborne Thief line, and it might be hard to imagine a better thief card than the T5 Shade I may or may not have in my possession.
Dwarf Brute
The T2 Warrior, Dwarf Brute, is Sturdy and Tough with a strong Physical lean. He has 64 Physical Stat Points, 55 Mental Stat Points, and 56 Sensory Stat Points. The Dwarf Warriors are strongly Min/Maxed for a strong Physical stat spread even if Daemon Warriors and Giant Warriors will have far more might and will likely deal more damage-- this is a warrior who can take a hit when you need your defender focused elsewhere. Or if you just can't fit a defender in, he's a warrior who can act as a light tank while you work your strategy.
Elf Brute
The Fleet and Tough T2 Elf Warrior, Brute, has 14 Agility and 14 Awareness with 13 Might and Initiative. He has 60 Physical Stat Points, 55 Mental Stat Points, and 60 Sensory Stat Points for a pretty unique and flavorful warrior. This is a speedy warrior that hits hard and fast potentially useful for guerrilla tactics in future games. Will be very interesting to see!
Gnome Tinker
The T1 Gnome Tinker is a Trickster Class with the Traits Nosey and Distracting. His highest stats are 14 Dexterity, 14 Wit, and 13 Awareness. His lowest stats are 9 Might and 10 Vitality, and he has 55 Physical Stat Points, 58 Mental Stat Points, and 58 Sensory Stat Points for a lean into Mental and Sensory Stats. The Gnome Trickster tree is an interesting one, and I'll be following it. It's hard to say, but I feel like his traits will make this class pop more.
Daemon Spearman
The Wicked and Smart Daemon Spearman is a T2 Defender with an Impressive 15 Endurance, and he also has 13 Might, Vitality, and Intelligence. I have the T5 in this line too, the Fear Monger, and it's interesting how they go hard into Might, Vitality, and Endurance at the expense of Dexterity and Sensory stats. I'm very excited about this line, but time will tell. He has a stat spread of 62 Physical Stats, 58 Mental Stat Points, and 55 Sensory Stat Points.
Lurker
The eighth T4 to be added to my collection is the Shadowborne Hunter, Lurker. He has 15 Agility and Awareness with the Traits Stealthy, Agile, and Eagle-Eyed. This seems to be a hunter extremely min/maxed for speed and stealth, and I think this a card that will see a fair bit of play. The Shadowborne Thieves will probably see more play, but I don't this is a card tree to ignore. I'm VERY excited about this pull today!!!
