I honestly think that Thetermancer might start seeing play.
The silence effect will trigger on Songhai’s battle pando and the provoke silence will get a lot of pets since they will move/attack BEFORE your opponent gets his actual turn, so before they can awnser it
That card is so awful I wouldn’t put it in my decks even if it does a very good job at countering pets. Which I doubt will be the case. There are better ways to abuse the fact how they’re uncontrollable by players.
About what underused cards will see plays? It’s really too early to say. But fuck it, I will make an extremely bold claim and say how cards like Araki and Un7 will get a lot better purely because all the new OGs and DWs pouring in. Hell, even Maia.
It depends mostly on whether or not battle pando becomes a new Songhai staple, but while there are Just a lot of better options then tehther right now, I do think it’ll become viable at least.
Unseven might not get much of a buff since all DW seem to be cheap so far anyway
Perhaps Aethermaster in a replace-themed deck with Inquisitor Kron.
I have made a topic about that a while ago:
Of course most of those are out dated , so I would say chrysalis burst,Obelisk, silithar elder (will get reworked, darkspine elemental (will also get reworked).
You can add deathstrike seal , gravity well, blood taura (lol),
I think grailmaster will see play in some slower deck that spam allot of stuff on the board, things like wall vanar or dervish vet. If you manage to get grail master to stick for 1 turn and she gets celerity and range it is gg. This can be even more insane with sotw and infiltrate, instant gg no matter what the enemy has.
I have seen it yet but some how games suppose last long enough to reach 8 mana.So I am guessing there is a good healing card we haven’t seen yet.So basically if games can actually reach 8 mana in reasonable way then stuff like Storm Kage, Oserix, Silthar Elder and couple neutral legends that will be better.
Grailmaster + Whispers of the Sand looks solid in structure Zirix
Grailmaster doesn’t see play in Lillithe, so there is no way it’ll be playable in a Dervish or Wall deck.
I think the entire Healyonar archetype might see a resurgence. Sunforge Lancer by itself pushes the archetype, Zir’an’s BBS tweak might make a big difference and the meta is bound to slow down. I’m not so sure about the usefulness of the rumored Lucent Beam, but we’ll see.
So: Lightchaser, Sun Sister Sterope, Sunriser, Sundrop Elixir
Defiantly looks like healionar will rise up, the ironclifeheart spell also just works to give you a beefy healable minion without DB
Grailmaster is run in quite a few lithe decks, so I’d expect her too
I thought that was due to abyssians having great faction choices for late game minions like Revenant and Reaper. Honestly I wouldnt rule it out until someone tries it and it doesnt work.
I played grailmaster in my Jax Truesight wall deck (before skorn of course). He was a pretty solid alternative to dark nemesis as a 7 mana answer this or die card. It was so easy to give him all abilities in one turn.
