Hi kids, I hope you’re enjoying “impossible
intros” week as much as we are at pojo, i.e. not
at all. As the smart ones amongst you might have
guessed, none of the cards we are looking at
this week have anything that could help towards
a decent introduction. Not in the slightest.
And on to the show;
Shawdowpact does not have an abundance of
bitching 4 drop characters. Sure, there is June
Moon. But we aren’t talking about her.
We are talking about Witchfire. She’s a 4 drop
with flight, range, not great stats and
willpower. She’s not going to be a pitch hitter
and she’s no Green Lantern. So she’s going to
have to be played for her effect, which is that
Witchfire gains you endurance equal to the cost
of a character she stuns. So long as you have 25
or less endurance.
You’re probably only going to be taking on 3
drops to avoid Witchfire getting stunned in
return and hence the gain is going to be
minimal. With a poor defence she is going to be
counter-stunned taking on 4 drop characters so
her effect will essentially just cancel out the
stun endurance loss you will take. I don’t like
any of that.
Nope.
Don’t like it.
I can’t think of anything else to say right now.
Sealed: 2
Constructed: 3

Okay, here’s a card that requires some thinking,
but not a whole lot…
Witchfire
Rebecca Carstairs
Shadowpact/4/8/6
Flight and Range
Willpower 3
Whenever Witchfire stuns a character and you
have 25 or less endurance, gain endurance equal
to that character’s cost.
There’s an important thing about Witchfire.
Nobody plays her. Not even in Shadowpact. And
why would you, when you got June Moon and Dr.
Occult taking up your 4 drops? Her effect is
okay, but not game-breaking like the other 4
drops. Even Nightshade has a more useful effect
that could win games. And the fact that you have
to have 25 or less endurance to qualify for life
gain means this is rendered useless.
Modern Age: 1/5
Silver Age: 1/5
Golden Age: 1/5
Overall: 1/5
Shadowpact is underrated…

Witchfire,
Rebecca Carstairs (Shadowpact)
4 cost, 8 ATK, 6 DEF, Flight, Range
Willpower 3
Whenever Witchfire stuns a character and you
have 25 or less endurance, gain endurance equal
to that characters cost.
This looks like a pretty fun card... I don't
know much about the Infinity Crisis set, but I
do know from Green Lanters that Willpower is one
of my favorite things ever (Oa and Uppercut!!)
Her stats are about average for a 4 cost (7/7 is
average), but Flight/ Range and Willpower 3
helps. Her ability is pretty cool. If she stunns
a character and you are at 25 or less, you can
endurance equal to the stunned characters cost.
Sure, this may only only net you 3 or 4 at a
time, but if she is team attacking, you can get
7 or 8 if you are lucky. And that adds up over
time. Fun fun. Oh, yes... RK Post is one of my
favorite artists... so this card gets bonus
points cuz she is hot and well drawn. :D
Sealed: 3/5 Could be fun....
Constructed: 3/5 Solid. |
