New Demacia Card - Durand Architect

Like Mentor of the Stones, but bad. Yes he has synergy with Battering Ram and Bubble Bear but that's never going to be good. Verdict: 2/5

New Demacia Card - Durand Sculptor

Obvious synergy with Formidable units aside, she's just a great unit to put into any deck. Verdict: 5/5

New Demacia Card - Durand Protege

Counting the keyword and stats she grants an ally, she's not a bad deal. If you don't have an ally to buff, she's kind of awful though; Brightsteel Protector without an ally to buff is still a respectable 3/2 for …

New Demacia Card - Petricite Stag

This is like Shen, but bad. Verdict: 2/5

New Demacia Card - Petricite Broadwing

Although it does lose power when it takes damage, a 3/3 Challenger for 2 mana is very good. Verdict: 4/5

New Demacia Card - Petricite Hound

1 mana 2/2s have been viable in hyper-aggressive decks like Pirates. Unlike Jagged Butcher, Petricite Hound doesn't have additional upside, loses power if it takes damage, and doesn't belong to a region that supports this type of hyper-aggressive playstyle. Verdict: …

6 New Demacia Cards Revealed for Legend of Runeterra's New "A Curious Journey" Expansion

My best guess is "Add my health to my power", or "Raise my power to be equal to my health". Would make sense with all of the cards giving toughness buffs.

Yuumi: New Bandle City & Targon Champion Reveal - 9 New Runeterra Cards Revealed

Continuing the trend of Bandle City having infinite value, their unit buffs get returned back to their hand when the buffed unit dies, gets captured, etc. Yuumi in particular looks incredibly obnoxious: She's cheap, she's strong, and from what I …

New Bandle City Spell - Friendship!

Both of its effects are worse than those of cards we already have: Prismatic Barrier gives Barrier for less mana, Spirit's Refuge gives Barrier AND Lifesteal for the same mana, and Bastion's buff lasts longer and grants permanent stat buffs. …

New Bandle City Spell - Prowling Projectile

Fated decks may want this, but no other decks will. Verdict: 3/5

New Bandle City Card - Mushroom Ring

Similar to Fae Bladetwirler, only this costs more mana and has less health. On the plus side, this unit is actually a Fae (unlike Bladetwirler), so he can get a mana discount from Gleaming Lantern. Verdict: 1/5

New Bandle City Card - Scholarly Climber

Reminds me of Fused Firebrand, except slightly worse. It's not terrible, but it would take a niche metagame for this to see play. 2/5

New Bandle City Card - Quick Quill

Quick attack is a defensive buff for attacking units; it saves the attacker from losing health to a weaker defender. I'm not sure that the likes of Pantheon or Wounded Whiteflame need this defensive buff; I can't even remember the …

New Bandle City Card - Assistant Librarian

Stat-wise, this is pretty underwhelming compared to Saga Seeker and Wounded Whiteflame, but we know that Fated units don't want for stats for very long. Its upside is drawing you cards on a Nexus strike. The thing about Fated units …

New Bandle City Card - Papercraft Dragon

Spending 5 mana on a buff to turn a unit into Horns of the Dragon, the infamous Ionia unit which just gets chump blocked forever, sounds like a bad deal. Now, if you also give that unit Overwhelm, then that …

New Bandle City Card - Rainbowfish

Elusive is a very powerful keyword, but this is a pretty expensive buff; Sumpworks Map is a 2-mana buff that grants Elusive, and it sees no play. This card has some significant upsides over Sumpworks map, such as getting your …

New Bandle City Champion - Yuumi

Yuumi is very strong. Think of other cards that grant permanent buffs to units: cards like Take Heart, Stand Alone, or Blessing of Targon. Yuumi is more mana efficient, her buff grows in size every turn, and if the buffed …

New Bandle City Spell - Transposition

Ephemeral copy from Go Get It is a big reason why you'd want to play it. On units with a powerful effect that triggers when summoned, such as The Rekindler, Go Get It allows you to activate that effect twice.

Yuumi had better have some epic payoffs to justify putting all of these bad Fae cards in your deck

New Bandle City Spell - Fae Aid

Yikes, this is so bad, it makes Greenglade Elder look good. 1/5
