So Freljord will get big/ramp support.
Call the Wild is a versatile tutor, which could enable multiple or single race type based decks.
Fury of the North is a good defensive and offensive buff. Troll Chant is a lil bit weaker in assault (Overwhelm), but it cost half as much, and for this, I think it will find it's place.
I really, really hope this is not leading up to a Trundle reveal. We already have 1 non-Targon champ out of 7 total for this expansion.
I will be very, very sad if we only get 5 champs from Targon.
As for these cards ... they are probably fine and decently designed, but they don't appeal to my personal play style.
What we know in bold, what I suspect in italics:
August 28
October
December
@OldManSanns: I'm sure your prediction is correct, but I'm still feeling disappointed by all this troll stuff.
OH I see so some regions won't get their expnasion at all until december.. It makes sense to do it like this so the meta can evolve.
I mean, in what universe can this not be leading up to a Trundle reveal?
In a universe where Riot understands that people have been looking forward to Targon champions, not a sixth champion for f-ing Freljord. They can put Trundle in the October expansion, and all these silly trolls will still work.
Who the fuck really cares for reveals that much ?
I mean, What's the real benefit for you to learn all of the Targon cards right now ? Theorycraft ? Don't kid with me, You'll end up with netdecking anyways.
When expansion will be released, you'll be playing with all of the Targon cards you want, other than that, Just try to enjoy the reveal season without whining.
Damn, People whines about everything these days.
Only card out of these ones that seems all that impressive is Uzgar. Challenge and Regeneration together seems like it could be pretty powerful.
Troll Chant seems good, but the Behold cards all feel very late-game, at which point they're no good, right? (I know the 8-cost card can be in your hand, but why do you want to be holding a card you can't play?
Call the Wild seems like it would be decent with Poros and Yetis, but wouldn't it be lousy with Elnuks?
Underwhelming cards if you ask me.
Maybe Trundle will be 8 mana so this make sense, rn it doesn't
You have to try to consider what the full deck might look like, not just relative to the current meta.
Specifically: I could see these cards causing a resurgence of Warmother's Call decks. Faces of the Old Ones is like a cheaper Wyrding Stones, and Troll Scavenger + Troll Ravager provide some early game defense that doesn't feel awful when its pulled by your calling. The Behold 8+ mechanic also turns that archetype's biggest liability--that Call is effectively a dead draw until you have enough mana to play it--into a partial asset.
Yes, it's implying that he will be 8 cost. I hope Trundle will have some impact on the board the moment we play it, otherwise it would just like trynd.
Trynda is a beast in the right deck tho, thresh and Trynda combination is really good especially if you also got the rekindler.
and tryndamere is well enough !? lol
