Short review today, so let’s jump right into it. Seven Deadly Sins, the next pre-release promo is simply put really good. With the recent rulings on Envy, Copycat and Gluttony, Big Fists, Homonculus gets some of that power back. There aren’t many downsides to this card. It is 1 cost so it can easily be put in any Homonculus deck. Shou Tucker, Educated Fool can start it. It can be pulled with Chico’s grave as well as with Slavering Beast, so there are many ways to get it out first turn. Also, since there is limited advantage hate so far, it is pretty safe to assume it’ll be out for a majority of the game.

Pros:
-No strategy required to run with the advantage
-You can still use location control against your opponent
-Cheap cost
-Homonculus has many options to pulling advantages
-Easy to start the game with more than one sin in play

Cons:
-You have to attend a pre-release to get one

Constructed:5/5-I forsee this card seeing a lot of play in the upcoming weeks

The Seven Deadly Sins consist of Greed, Gluttony, Pride, Wrath, Lust, Sloth, and Envy. All of which are character names on the FMA show, and all of which are homunculi, or artificial humans, if you will. So, its only fitting that a card called Seven Deadly Sins, benefit said characters.
 
 This is the cards that will destroy Elric Location control single-handedly. On November 15th, the day that Seven Deadly Sins releases and the day this card becomes legal, all Elric faction decks will cease to exist in their current form. Generally one card cannot entail so much change, but this card is the exception that disproves the rule. Up to now, Elric's have relied heavily on Change in Plans, Clue for the Search, A Job Well Done, etc. Now, those cards become nearly obsolete. Elric isn't the only decktype that used ridiculous location control, military sometimes did as well. Fortunately for FMA players, this coming set will bring about many changes in the meta game. Bluebirds will lower the frequency of discard, Restaurateur will completely annihilate location control, and draw will make a heavy rebound.
 
 In sealed, this card can't be played, sorry. In constructed, if you make a deck whose leader is a sin character, you better use this.
 
 Sealed: N/A
 Constructed: 5/5 Your deck will thank you.
