If you had to pick ONE best card. I know this prompt is kinda stupid, but lets try it.
The ones I thought were:
Vetruvian: Blood of Air
Lyonar: Trinty Oath
Songhai: Mist Dragon Seal
Vanar: Ghost Seraphim? What if I tell you Ive NEVER faced Flawless Reflection
Abyssian: I dunno, Demonic Lure? Bloodtide Priestess? Shadowdancer?
Magmar: Makantor
Edit: We can pick for Neutral too, I guess. Lets exclude Wanderer from this list so we get more varied results.
Sure, why not.
Vetruvian: Sandswirl Reader
Lyonar: Albaster Titan
Songhai: Juxtaposition
Vanar: Malicious Wisp
Abyssian: Furor Chakram
Magmar: Makantor Warbeast
Neutral: Bloodtear Alchemist
Vet: Fault, easy infinite value generator and the card that got me into playing vet before Ka
Lyonar: Dont play a lot of Lyo, but i want to say Titan, because its an incredibly impactful card
Songhai: cant answer, not a songhai player
Vanar: Nemeton(cuz it needs very much skill)
Abyss:Chackram, because it enables many powerful decks
Magmar: Makantor
Neutral: Sarlac Azure Herald
Lyonar: Trinity Oath, but my heart goes to Sunbreaker
Vetruvian: Sandswirld Reader, but my heart goes to Scion’s Second Wish
Songhai: Juxtaposition, but my heart goes to Geomancer
Vanar: Luminous Charge, but my heart goes to Snow Chaser
Abyssian: Daemonic Lure, but my heart goes to Nekomata
Magmar: Makantor Warbeast, but my heart goes to Juggernaut
Neutral: Thunderhorn, but my heart goes to S.I.L.V.E.R.
If speaking of standalone power, then:
Lyo: Holy Immo, why I’m the first to mention it?
Hai: Eternity Painter
Vet: Sandwhirl.
Abyss: Can’t choose between Deso and Chakram…
Mag: who knows, who cares…
Vanar: Abhorrent Wisp.
Neutral: Thunderhorn. Still.
Lyonar: Trinity Oath
Songhai: Juxtaposition
Vanar: Gravity Well
Abyssian: Ritual Banishing
Vetruvian: Blood of Air
Magmar: Makantor Warbeast
Neutral: Healing Mystic
That’s an odd pick. How so?
Lyonar: Holy immolation
Magmar: Jesus Makantor
Vetruvian: the OG third wish that made lasercats possible, but now it’s probably Blood of Air
Songhai: hmmmmm thunderbomb maybe
Vanar: chromacold (except it deals 2)
Abyssian: DOOM Ok fine darkfire sacrifice
Neutral: healing mystic but I think EMP is flashier
Man this really reminds me of the times when each faction only had a couple key strong cards and all
Edit: doom support when?
Lyonar: Trinity Oath
Songhai: Juxtaposition
Vetruvian: Blood of Air
Abyssian: Desolator
Vanar: Malicious Wisp
Magmar: …Makantor
Neutral: Spelljammer
Lyonar: Silverguard Knight
Songhai: Juxtaposition
Vetruvian: Blood of Air
Abyssian: Furor Chakram
Vanar: Gravity Well
Magmar: Makantor
Neutral: Dancing Blades
Lyonar: Holy Immolation
Songhai: Firestorm Mantra
Vetruvian: Blood of Air
Abyssian: Desolator
Vanar: Luminous Charge
Magmar: Makantor Warbeast
Neutral: Bloodtear Alchemist
Archetypical importance and impact and just observations on the cards powerlevel as seen in the meta at the ranks I typically play at. While Oath is incredibly powerful, it doesnt advance the board or provide the type of impact plays as a host of other cards and is more relevant based on your overall deckbuilding. My second pick would have actually been Sunrise Cleric for what it’s worth. There’s a reason Titan Lyonar has a higher overall winrate in the Meltdown League than even Wanderer Ragnora and the card’s power is testament to that.
Lyonar: Trinity Oath
Songhai: Grandmaster Zendo
Vetruvian: Khanuum-Ka
Abyssian: Desolator
Vanar: Luminous Charge
Magmar: Makantor Warbeast
Neutral: Thunderhorn
lyonar - big boy cliffe
songhai - zenduu
vet - idk
magmar - idk
neutral - lady locke
vanar - EMBLAAAAAAAAA
abyss - klaxon
Neutral: Reliquarian. As much as some may deem it memey it is in my hearth one of the most interesting, flexible and, when well placed, impactful designs of the game. I only ressent Lyo having no Dying wish cards.
For me, it would probably go:
Lyonar: Alabaster Titan
Songhai: Juxtaposition
Magmar: Flash Reincarnation
Abyssian: Furor Chakram
Vetruvian: Sandswirl Reader
Vanar: Malicious Wisp
Lyonar - Divine Bond - Budget friendly, easy to use, can make different styles of decks around it.
Vetruvian - Sandswirl Reader - Good removal/bounce card, also generates a tile which provides value over time.
Songhai - Gotatsu - Can be used as ping, draws a card, can use on your own minions for creative lethal.
Vanar - Gravity Well - Can use to grab multiple mana tiles, annoying for the opponent, can deny opponent mana tiles early, gives you the ability to reach across the board as well.
Abyssian - Daemonic Lure - Can act as ping, move your opponent’s minion to your advantage, can be a good advantage to have in your hand as Player 2 for your Turn 1 as it can help remove your opponent’s turn 1 play.
Magmar - Flash reincarnation - Ramps powerful minions out early or fun meme minions.
Neutral - BTA, Healing Mystic, Golem Metallurgist, Wild Tahr, Spelljammer, Blue Conjourer, Inquistor Kron. All of them are pretty good.
Vet: sandswirl reader
Abyss: furor chakram
Magmar: decimus propagate rage makantor warbeast, flash reincarnation
Lyonar: titan / sunrise cleric
Songhai: juxtaposition
vanar: warbird malicious wisp / gravity well
Neutral: spelljammer, azure herald, bta
This is what I feel: Lyonar: divine bond. Magmar: macantor Songhai: onyx bear seal. Vanar: the 3/3 transform spell. Vetruvian Sandswirl Reader Abyssian: Idk dont play against them much, maybe the lasso?
