New General Poll

#1

Now that I’ve finally unlocked the new generals, I thought that it’d be appropriate to make a poll thread about them.

Which did you have the most trouble getting?

  • Brome
  • Shidai
  • Ciphyron
  • Maehv
  • Ragnora
  • Ilena

Mother of All Things That Are Good, why does every poll need a unique name?

Hardest was ilena because i never play vanar, easiest was shidai because songhai main, I think brome is most interesting because his BBS supports and creates multiple new archetypes (at least he’s the one i play the most so i may be biased because i haven’t seen the others as much) and im most afraid of maehv because i already hate abyss and she can make desolator even better. Also if she gets the right cards in the expac I think she could become one mean control general, along with ciph, brome, and ilena

Hardest for me was a close tie between Ilena and Brome mostly because I was playing janky decks for both of them.

Easiest for me was probably Ragnora as Magmar does what Magmar does best .

Most interesting for me would be Maehv due to the whole spawn, kill, damage mechanic she supports while Ilena is the scariest for me since she adds on yet another way for vanar to control the board (unless you’re playing artifact and even then vanar has ways of shutting you down)

Hardest isAbyssian …I still haven’t gotten Maehv. My Abyssian decks are terrible and lack any cohesive theme as I haven’t really dedicated any spirit to them because of how high cost many of the decks are.

Easiest was Brome because of how consistent my Healonar deck is, second is Vetruvian who I went from never playing to really enjoying the consistency of with a Golem deck.

Most interesting would be Maehv, simply due to the potential of her BBS.

Honestly not scared of any of the new Generals as only a few seem to know how to use them properly and some lack support currently. I feel like Ilena will be a real bitch though when Stunsteel decks start getting made in earnest.

Maehv was hardest with 19 games but that was mostly because i decided to use my memey black solus midrange Lilith list in Srank to get her, could have have it easier but wanted to test the deck anyway and it worked much better than expected.

Easiest was either Brome or Shidai. I can’t really tell how many games it took for Shidai because i was climbing with my Arcanyst Reva deck anyway and can’t really tell at which point i got Shidai unlocked. Brome took 15 games with Bond Lyonar. The others all took 16 games so weren’t far behind.

Ragnora is the most interesting to me because he is the only one who really brings a new deck type into the game. Or maybe i should say into viability, Eggmar existed before… in theory. The others just took over old archetypes from the old generals.

The most scary is Shidai because i really don’t want Mantra to become a common occurence, it’s just far too annyoning to play against.

In the end, I decided to go for the preorder, so I can’t really comment on how difficult was to unlock the generals, though I was surprisingly having a lot of troubles with Maehv.

I am a bit worried by both Ragnora and Shidai. Both are designed to be combo generals, but it seems to me that combos are too easily enabled when playing either of the two. If a Ripper egg hatches, it’s tons of face damage, while Mantra seems crazy in Shidai. I hope they won’t break the game too much.

Hardest to unlock is the one I miss, it’s Brome :slight_smile:

On the other hand, blame me, if I don’t force me into playing Lyonar, I’ll never get it.

Yeah, still missing him. Lyonar is the only one I currently don’t own a viable deck in the ladder :confused:

Easiest was shidai, even tho I’m a vet main. I was in the mood for a midrange kaleos run and got 10 wins out of 12 games, I think.

Maevh took me more time than I would like, but still got her

#9

Hardest by default was Cypheron, I then decided to preorder because I wanted to get a ton of orbs for the expansion, other generals are icing on the top

I feel that there should be another category for weakest new general before the expansion hits. To me, Shidai and Ragnore and already pretty good, Brom and Maehv still needs a few support cards, and Cypheron and Ileana are crimally undersupported. Cypheron, especially, could end up as Sajj 2.0 if he doesn’t get more support.

Wouldn’t that be represented through whoever is least “scary”?

It already follows most of what you said except backwards.

#12

I don’t know, a 7ft snake woman in a dog collar holding a whip is pretty scary, but I don’t think she’s all that overpowered in game.

Shouldn’t she be holding a leash rather than a whip?

I feel like he’s pretty good atm. He plays midrange vet better than zirix by controlling trades instead of just pooping out a 2/2

Without obelysks (specifically fireblaze) or oasis, zirix bbs is average at best and could easily be swapped out
