Best Card in Betrayers Limited?
« Thread Started on Feb 6, 2005, 9:12pm »

What card do you feel is the best in Betrayers Limited?

I don't really know which card I think is the best, but I really seem to like Toils of Night and Day, Shimmering Glasskite, and Okiba-Gang Shinobi.

What are your favorites?

I'm a fan of Loam Dweller, particularly because it's a 2/2 for 2 mana along with a very useable ability for land advantage. It's cheap, doesn't die with a single point of damage, and I could really see it getting play in a Spirit/TaN deck, although I might be wrong. (I haven't had a chance to particularly sample the Betrayers cards yet.)

Also, the addition of the new "chump" blockers really seem a solid addition to the set (ie bile urchin, frostling, child of thorns). Particularly the Urchin and teardrop Kami, since they would be the cards usually used for the Ninjutsu ability if they were left unblocked.

Finaly, the rare I find most interesting has to be Shizuko, Caller of Autumn. 3 mana for 2/3 (decent) with the ability to give you GGG? Pretty sweet. The drawback? Opponent gets it too. AND it doesn't cause mana burn AND it doesn't go away between phases. I can think of a lot of stuff I could do with GGG. (just think... mirror gallery and x3 Shizukos in play... x9 mana. Wow. TaN? nooo. Sundering titan hardcast? nooo.) (Also, I like Tendo Ice Bridge due to its flavor.)

Overall, the rares aren't particularly impressive in this set. Although, I don't care much for the whole "legend rule" changes. Might put a negative spin on a lot of things for me. ~x

I like it, too.

I just don't think there are many good arcane spells in BoK to support Horobi's Whisper Splice ability. Looks like the sole reason for playing an arcane will be to splice the Whisper. That's not good at all.

Then again, I'm probably missing really good Arcane. I totally overlooked Glacial Ray in Champions, so what do I know?
