The Pack additions - Thoughts

hi there,
some of you might (or might not) know that i REALY like The Pack as a caste. lately i've got less and less motivation to play em, since they lack in variaty. however with the new additions i really think of going back to The Pack (get it? i know it's lame)

[card]The Survival of the Fittest[/card]
in my opinion by far the best card when it comes to playing a marauder version of this caste

[card]Black Fang Skin[/card]
it realy does look nice, but it's just another attempt to make ppl believe that The Howls are playable, which they are NOT. but it sure can be used for the as a generic atk boost item which (rarely) will reduce the def of opposing beasts.

[card]Annoyance[/card]
this card sure looks nice, but to be effective you must have a weapon equipped, so this eliminate the thought of playing it more then twice in a deck. the nice part is that it gives a max of +5 atk thou and that's based on your bonus atk and not the bonus gained from said weapon (Lunation, Bloodsword and Fenrath bonus included).

[card]The Alpha[/card]
the rare card release is a bit dissapointing since it has only limited uses due to it's warrior restriction. also here's a quick summary of max atks from the packs chars:
Bloodsword: 9 both versions
Dark: 10
Faceless: 8
Fenrath: 11
Wild: 10
that being said; if you play fenrath, only HE alone will get this card, Faceless will most likely never see it, and Wild can play it. however all of those can play it BUT wont have to get it since the only restriction is that one of your characters with the highest max atk get's it attached, which would mean that even Bloodsword might get it, if she's wielding a Bestial iE.
the +1 def realy helps out and the "chain:the pack card." lets you play Lunations, Bestial and even Dances with Volk with more expertice! (double survival of the fittest for the overkill? YES PLS xD)

i realy like the realses and also must laugh while also also checking out the marketplace; The Howls for 6-7k xD

in terms of playability i'd rate em Annoyance> The Alpha> Survival of the Fittest> Black Fang Skin. as soon as i get my hand on some playsets i'll give em a try and keep you posted on personal deck updates and possible new ideas.


And keep in mind kids [card]The Howls[/card] IS BAD if anyone tells you different, they havent experienced a higher ELO than 1,5k

and here the link to my 1st post in the forums and the origin of my all time fav deck: http://forum.eredan.com/viewtopic.php?id=31286

Re : The Pack additions - Thoughts

Im a bit amazed The Pack got so many new cards with the release

Its not like they were "weak"

Sure they fell apart quick (generally if you kill one, the other 2 fall fast), but they went down swinging hard

i think this will add some strategy to their game play and no more just playing any cards...

Wich is totally fair, right?
They suck, but at least they can see big numbers...

The Pack was a one-trick Caste.

Now they got enough cards to have more than just a super-predictable, easily countered strategy.

well, that applies to almost any enemy deck you see in game... you now what can they play and anticipate yourself. Things like zil priests are little less predictable since you dont know if they will play discard or destiny way

Re : The Pack additions - Thoughts

alright didnt take that long go get some gameplay.

Black Fang Skin, The Alpha and Annoyance are best suited to an setup with Fenrath, Faceless and Bloodsword (warrior ver.).
the build-in chaining of Twohanded Weapons iE Bestial from Faceless and Fenrath makes chaining into either of those, real monsters out of your characters.
hell, the best start i've had was an opposing 1st turn attack on Faceless where i played Bestial and Black Fang Skin, turning him into a 14/14 without Fenraths steroids. Also Annoyance usualy boosted for 4-5 and got a generic chain which is always nice.

next up i'll go into an marauder setting with Wild, Dark and Bloodsword (marauder ver.). to see how OP [card]Time to Die[/card]-> [card]The Survival of the Fittest[/card] works out. Wild also has access to The Alpha so i'll include that as well and go straight glass cannon with [card]Blood ties[/card].

the only pain in the level rooms right now are the mass of kotoba warriors who are trying to get [card]Defend your Territory[/card] for their fraction (as if they'd need another def boost...).

what i dont get is why i havent seen any TttS decks with the [card]Alyce[/card] o.O cant take that long to level her to 3, as she's perfect for the deck since she's a mage/priest/ shadow gumelite with 3 spirit that can play shadowspells without restriction and chains em iE Shadowmaster xD

She got inside info from the Staff ahead of time. Smart girl.

As for Alyce, what eyes are you talking about? Hers... or hers?
I think hers are scarier.
