(Alphonse Elric, Indelible Soul):
Well, Alphonse sure didn't get very much good
stuff this set. While it's true that Zealots
didn't have decent 9-costs (despite Lyra), or
even an Alphonse Zealot before Indelible Soul,
he doesn't do that much. His ability is
expensive- especially in a deck not dedicated to
Stones, in fact, his only saving grace with Rose
is that he is, in fact, a Zealot with alchemy.
He may fit into a couple Hohenheim Elric,
Protective Father decks for his nine-cost
bigness and stone ability, but Tireless Fighter
is a much, much stronger card.
In limited, nine costs are virtually unplayable.
It *might* happen in Speed Draft, but it's
doubtful that you will get to level three.
Constructed: 2/5
Speed Draft: 2.5/5
Sealed: 1.5/5 (less likely for level 3) |

Today's
Sacrifice review is Alphonse Elric, Indelible
Seal. Had this been a few sets ago I would have
given this a 1 or a 2 simply for the fact that
it is 9 cost. Generally most decks don't want to
put in allies they can't recruit at level 2, but
lately there have been more ways to get extra
command. There is the Hohenheim XE, Automatic
Oven, Brigadier General and Calling in Favors to
name a few to make 9 cost allies a little more
accesible.
The Al itself is nothing to laugh at either. At
7/5/6 Toughness: 2, you would need a 9/7/8 to
defeat him alone. Even if you were to defeat him
he has a great little stone ability that lets
you reset him instead of defeating him. Overall
I think it's a great Al. Though 9 commands are
more accessible now, they still are not 100%
reliable to recruit so it hurts it a bit. The
stone ability too can be expensive or impossible
depending if you decide to run stones or not.
Constructed: 3/5-With so many different Al
allies to choose from, it'll depend on your
deck. |
