This just proves how GODLY CP is at card design and how far is lowly card design scrubs have to “get on their level” 
hoping that this cheap trend continues for vet. It’s already expensive enough as it is to make a good vet deck:joy:
Expansion Spoiler Day 4: Zephyr
1 Like
I used to play Warhammer Fantasy, that game had a faction called Vampire Counts which centered mostly around their Hero units with a ton of ‘fodder’. Most of the power in the faction was consolidated into their Vampire/Necromancer unit. It was the very scary unit that could summon extra troops, command their underlings to be stronger and was both the best spellcaster and (usually) combat unit (depending on type) of their army while also being the general.
The direction CP seems to be taking with Vetruvian seems to be a similar one to the Vampire Counts/Tomb Kings factions of Warhammer: One very central character (general) that both commands and summons a host of weaker (unliving) underlings (Dervishes and Obelysks) with some special non-fodder units (Falcius, Zephyr, Nimbus) with a lot of the spellcasting and power brought by the General (i.e. artefacts on the general; Entropic Decay, Siphon Energy, Dominate Will being cast ‘around/by your general’; minions giving power to your general like Falcius, Zephyr.). It’s got parralels with cheaper, replenisheable units (skeletons/zombies = Dervishes), special ghostly units (Nimbus for example), etc…
Long post, but that’s why I draw the comparison.

Exactly, and without the BBS it’s 6 mana, aka the exact cost of a Makantor Warbeast with a similar effect: a 4 damage AOE.
The only drawback being that it’s centered on your General, but the upside being that the general doesn’t receive any damage.
So same cost for a similar effect with different applications.
Heyyyy, I like this. No one will ever box Sajj in again.

To face for our sins praise him on six mana

Real talk for a moment. How does Zephyr get either general to Frenzy? we’ve seen his/her attack animation. so does she/he just say mean and slightly degrading things about the generals personal appearance to rile them up?

Have you seen Zephyr’s hair? That’s already got me in a frenzy.

You can’t use the frenzy effect without using your BBS

Crap, you’re right. damn.
But Zephyr doesn’t have to be summoned on the same turn to be used though. So it can also be less mana to set up (Zephyr already on board, Falcius + BBS is 4 mana). Like a Holy immolation.
That’s actually a incredibly under looked fact. If you don’t clear this thing from the board it could get out of hand since it’s not an Opening Gambit… Interesting.
Well, it’s clear that if you can’t target something doesn’t mean you can’t damage it using frienzy. In case of Sajj’s BBS it’s ‘your general deals double damage to minions this turn’, which means with frienzy attack minions get double damage, the general - just basic. See no reason or any kind of logic for general to take double as well.
Amazing card, vetruvians finally get some form of aoe. Let’s hope we get more healing and cheaper positioning tools (cheaper silhouette tracer-ish cards) to actually make the flavor cpg intends to implement- General centered play style, more viable.
Btw, is it just me or does it look like a super saiyan from dragonball? I don’t really watch it, but the hair style, the hair color, semi-flying (floating) and the power blast (looks like kamehameha) reminds me of it.

If only the fix the bbs by I clouding “reduce the damage received to half” , so that the bbs doesn’t suck so badly as it currently is because right now it is highly dependent on other cards to make it function. A bbs should be able to do a decent job on its own yet add better power plays and synergies when combined with other cards that support it, not fixing it by giving cards that help it but is still unappealing yo use on its own.
Seems like a decent card. I like how unlike Falcius you can play it on first two turns and not lose a really powerful effect. I doubt it would be too overpowered
turn 7 holy immo ok then ill be far away by then. decent card tho
since you all like to close my posts ill say it here can you devs give ziran a legendary 9 mana minion open gambit restore all friendly minions and your general to full health
I’m really excited for this expansion I’m glad it’s gonna be a small one (40 cards is what I’m hearing) less is more I think. Have they announced the pre purchase yet?
Woah what the fuck, he’s a common? Sajj is pretty lucky with those.
I’m not sure how practical he is (how often would you be able to box your general in purposefully?) but he’s really cool and worth taking out for a ride.
