341 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 (edited) So I heard that set 12 is going to release the Mage Sisters, who have interesting abilities. I was wondering what you guys think of them. If it's possible to pull it off or if they are to under powered to place in a deck. Also consider if there is a way to protect them with other cards.

Flamy Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 meh, their effects are all grossly overcosted, considering that you need all three of them to be out, and even then, flipping 1 to temporarily be a 60-attack unit isn't that terrific no way to reliably get them in hand or on field (tutoring, if you're familiar with the term), Fotla hits only Orbs, so you can't actually kill with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulWeaver Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 It's an interesting take on the Triangle Attack idea. I think they could be played, but the deck probably wouldn't be terribly optimal…so in other words exactly the kind of deck I like to play with! @341 give me an MC and I'll come up with something.

341 Posted June 7, 2018 Author Share Posted June 7, 2018 Please forgive me for my absent. Life got in the way. @ScarletFlame: I get that it's hard to pull off, but would pulling it off be worth the effort? @SoulWeaver: I would like to take you up on your offer if it still stands. Right now my main character is Shannan and I would like to keep it like that is at all possible. Otherwise there is also Holyn who would work with them (as he is stronger when he is the only front unit). And of course Leif who could get them from the Retreat.

I've run Holyn MC before, back when we didn't have any of the newer stuff, so I can take another look at that, and I'll look into Shannan, one of my friends gave him a try right before Overclasses became a thing so I'll see if he's still got his list.

341 Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 @SoulWeaver: Cool, I am curious to see what you come up with. @ScarletFlame: Right, I thought you meant that it is to hard to ever pull off and that that's why found them 'grossly overcosted'. Thank you for your input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulWeaver Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 There is actually an Elise Decklist floating around somewhere that uses the Mage Sisters. The Deck basically just Promotes Elise into her Set 2 SR as early as possible, then stalls until it gets the Sisters, and drops them. Early and Midgame strategies mostly revolve around discarding cards with the one Sister's effect, and destroying anything your opponent Deploys with the other Sister's effect. Once your opponent is out of hand, the Deck switches to a focus on Fotla, who pops an Orb, which is then discarded by her Sister's effect. The deck is gimmicky, and if your opponent is using Joshua or Jaffar you're bound to run into some difficulty, but otherwise it's a pain in the rear to get around. Kilmar can also make some headway due to being able to hit Tomes on the opponent's backrow, meaning Elise can't hide from him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
341 Posted June 15, 2018 Author Share Posted June 15, 2018 Elise looks good. Interesting deck actually. Thanks for sharing. However Elise is kinda above my pay grade xD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
