Not-so-Radiant Arin Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 Ward.Fanfare: Deal 3 damage to all other allied followers. I really underestimated this card's power. In Shadowcraft, this can be amazing as removal for your own Lurching Corpse/Attendant of Nights/Skullcradles (if you do 2378, like I do), and even just 5/9 by itself on T5 is already good. In Swordcraft, it can be a budget Aurelia because who the heck is gonna get through 9 Defense without DoD'ing (which is one less going to other crux cards) or committing a full board to wiping it out? I feel like this card, with the introduction of all the new control cards in Shadowcraft, is actually incredibly good if you can't spare the time/money/vials for Nephthys, and this is a good substitute.

Trebuchet MS Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 When it comes to forcibly triggering Last Words, the ones you really want to use it on are Lurching Corpse and Attendant of Night, seeing that you can just slam everything else into any enemy follower. Between Urd, Necroassassin, and Soul Conversion, that's sufficient amounts of self-destruction by your own card effects, and when budget permits, Goblinmount can step aside to make space. Blood and Dragon non-aggro decks, though, can use that fat Ward during evo-trading turns to force out enemy evolutions or removal, buying time to later turns to shine. They don't have good followers in that slot otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not-so-Radiant Arin Posted March 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 It was in a Pauper tournament that I actually saw this being used in Control Shadowcraft and thought it was very clever, as not having Urd/Mordecais/Nephthys would really ruin the Deck's consistency. Turns out that this is a good substitute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizarus Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 An amazing card if you have board control, a Dance of Death magnet. Its kinda annoying for me though, since I play Midrange dragoncraft, and the effect sometimes gets in the way if I need to pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 I fell in love with this card in take two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 GEEEEEEEEEET TO WORK! This card is one of the main reasons why I use 2 DoD in my aggro decks. So good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makο Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 One of the most powerful Goblins in the game, able to even tame a demon. Perhaps more dangerous unmounted than mounted? In any case, a strong pick in my Ramp dragon. A card for when you want everyone to just, like. Stop. Hit this for a bit, I need time to prepare. And at 5/9 on evolve, DEFINITELY nothing to sneeze at; hurts like heck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
