Really like the hooked rare. That extra card draw and its cost of 2/2 makes it very good imo.

I love your videos! Very informational and I like being able to read the cards myself when you hover over them. Keep it up my good man!

I hope they give those to LGS for weekly torunaments

Very nice

what a great way to get some uniques! thanks for sharing

Super want these, but where I am in the US there's only one store who ordered a small amount of Altered product, but isn't doing events.

Sorry where fan i play altered online?

These packs are nice. I like that hatter ❤ Hopefully organised play will get picked up more and more so that it’s becoming easier for people to participate and getting these thing to.

french people say -A-Fa-Nass :p Thank for your content :)

Oh my gosh if you get rid of this anansi I really want it ahah ! nice pulls !

Excellent idea on the part of Equinox to encourage in person play and to compensate those players with unique cards and promos who missed the Kickstarter pledge whose stretch goals enhanced the chances of their boosters containing these chase cards.

I got a unique foiler, an Ordis recruit token and a Lindiwe promo in mine ! Can't wait to participate in other events :) thanks for the video

Amazing pulls!

Need an LGS near me to run altered so I can get some of this sweet promo booster action. Also, to play the game.

Basira when built correctly outputs huge power! It's not just a 1/1. For example I just played a game today where my bravos blade runner was 9/9/9. So in reality my Basira was giving me every round +1/+2/+3 /etc. And ofc I agree there are also those games where I just don't open anything.

Kojo is sexy

I’m a Gulrang enjoyer and I do believe she can be very strong, getting those early bodies to stall out the game, especially with the landmark that auto advances makes it feel like one of the more viable control decks

Really enjoyed your takes! Agreed that only Waru is S tier at this time. Your point about Fen is very important, you're forced to play into mana at all times which I view as a major draw back. One thing that makes things really interesting is uniques. Because they are all so different, there will be cards that significantly increase the power level of any individual deck. This is going to make it hard to have a standard tier list as there will ALWAYS be outliers. There will be a wide variety of deck lists compared to your average TCG, so the meta shouldn't get too stale at any given time. Once festival decks are refined, that could be meta defying. This is one where uniques could particularly have a huge impact.

Great video! These are much more bite sized than full set review videos, i wish I had thought of something like this instead of making full review videos.

Great video!

About the French pronunciation, Afanas isn’t a French name by any mean, but there is nothing like tonic accentuation in French. So we do not accentuate “fa” neither “nas”.

also, auraq is she/her while she's auraq

arjun uses they/them pronouns

Globally agree with your comments and ranking. Fen is no longer a sleeper. Thanks for the great content! :) Also, where can information be found on the tournament in IT you mention? If you have, could you share?

I would figure that proactive game plans are going to be better early on as people are figuring out the game. It may take some time for reactive game plans to figure out what they need to do to counter the proactive decks, especially since there are multiple axes to think about (Sabotage, permanent removal, and character removal). Waru and Mack seems like they would be pretty weak to removal but I'll have to build the deck and try it out to see.

i've made a little tournament this week end (32 players) : finished 3rd ( one Promo card in my reward boosters yay!) (i've lost Only to a Lyra festival which i was prepared to face but didn't pick any cloth cocoon during the game. I lost by a turn..) i love my deck! :D

Great vidéo, thanks for this work comparing opinions, very valuable!

Kojo is far better than Bazira to me, first because as sigismar you can play it in différents ways , bazira only one is reliable so it makes no easy choice when you have to set your mana Next Basira must sometime go suboptimal in order to be exhaust Finaly kojo control is a power house able to hit 14 mana as fast as you hit 8 and totally destroy waru with an almost unmatched winrate

Arauq is very consistent. You always get a free card, and you have the ability to build your deck to minimize bad hits. From my testing it seems pretty impactful even if you just hit a 2 drop character, and if you hit something bigger or more powerful like a Hydracaena or Robin Hood the game can just be over

Thank you for this very interresting video 👍 Fyi Booda is not a cat, but a cheetah 😉

Great video! That said, I'm a man on a mission to prove that Atsadi is worth it, and I truly believe most people have no clue on how to build an Atsadi deck. People take his power as a payoff for playing big creatures. The thing is that's not a payoff, it's an enabler for playing a more controlly style deck that can take on the ressources of your opponent. It allows you to drag the game for longer than most deck can sustain. That way, Atsadi is much better than his Kojo counterpart for some matchup such as Afanas/Basira and Big Red Mirrors. It also absolutely stomps others control decks such as Akesha. (Kojo has better matchups against Sigismar tho) Speaking of big red, the core of an Atsadi deck isn't even made of big creature. The absolute core is constitued of small characters that will effectively act as an "after you" + some stats. Big creatures are only there when it's time to force your opponent to throw up the rest of their ressources they keep in hand. This probably won't change your opinion on it. I would love to share my decklist, but I prefer not to until a big tournament next month. I will come back to edit this comment with the decklist after the tournament. Aswell with some toughts on how it performed (Tho it's absolutely destroying things at my lgs ^^)

I would have bet on Akesha. I think there are aggro/tempo builds with her finishing games with small steps/big leaps

the beauty of altered is not being entirely bogged down by your hero choice. you shouldnt feel entirely disadvantaged playing your D tier hero, something other games can't seem to achieve

I certainly agree with your last points (keeping it fun - stale metas always ruin tcgs for me)! And it's definitely too early to have it all figured it out - and that's good! But tier lists are just always juicy things to debate about, so I'm really happy we have this one to talk about! Let me just talk about two heroes in this list (as I agree with most other things you said): Subhash and Auraq. I think Subhash is a crazy strong aggressive hero. I don't think he reaches the heights of Treyst's strength, but I feel like if people only boil him down to brassbug hive, you miss the entire gameplan of being aggressive. I think Subhash decks are a crazy fun engine, with you always paying the one (especially in those early rounds) and putting value in your reserve (coppelia, amelia, armorer) and eventually slamming down an ogun (especially after an armorer play). At least to me, Subhash has the potential to be in A. I still am a firm believer, that Auraq is the best Lyra hero for festival. Yes, that might be my crackpot theory (and maybe I've inhaled the disney magic dust), but the extra card Auraq provides every now and then can be the make or break for your festival strategy. Does that mean Auraq is competitively viable? Probably not. Is it fun to hit a Lyra Festival off the top of your deck (or that missing piece for a potential push for festival)? Absolutely!

Great video ! Where can we see the results of the tournament in Italy ?

Atsadi triggers also when you play from reserve, right? Including cards that costs less than his number of counters played from the reserve (with handcost equal or higher to the counters). Lindiwe also gives a character to sacrifice. Cool video, thanks.

I mostly agree with your picks kojo especially in upper tier, reliability on a hero is almost mandatory but this is a first set as you said. Some of these B or below heros could be shining next year. The only choice that bugs me out is Nevenka, in a 60 card definetly it could be D but in 3rd round you draw the 25% of your deck by default without ressuply or something more (because there are 39 cards), and i think that is C top just by probability. It is a highrisk hero i know but lyra despite his 0 stat in some cards has some chonky spikes on board that are really hard to match and the same happens to Auraq that is really misunderstood, the way to go with both of these is aggro.

Atsadi needs one or two other cards before he is viable. There are cards that COULD make him viable in the future, but he doesn't have the tools yet. He's definitely D tier.

Festival is viable but it can be shaky, however the same would be true for any Lyra or Muna deck if you build it that way.

With Basira you don't just have spells to provide the boosts. Your Haven AND you other characters can do this too.

I think Nevenka is a C personally not D tier, but I like her non the less.

Agree that Teiga is probably B tier

KojoMain. Thalia ONLY affects non creature spells. Robin Hood affects all spells including creatures, which is why he is a step more obnoxious.

I think Sierra is really underestimated. I still prefer Treyst, but the fact that you can play a permanent without losing any tempo is worth a lot. And then if your opponent takes the time to destroy it, it costs them tempo. I've been playing a lot, and I optimized multiple decks, and Sierra ends up being not far behind Treyst in my tests. I also think Akesha has way more potential than people think, but her biggest downside is that there are too many removals for permanents. You can build her without the Kadigir's tower, but then the low stats of Yzmir characters will hurt you. Of course you can still build a good deck with her, but without the Kadigir's Tower, C tiers feels fair. With the tower she becomes a power house able to come back from a huge disadvantage even the turn the tower is being played. But if your opponent knows that, then he just have to keep a permanent removal for the 8-9 mana turn and just win the game on the spot.

I agree Atsadi isnt very good. His hero power triggers off hand cost right not when played from hand? So Sakarabru from reserve triggers him. If we get more cards like that and ways to get them into the reserve he'll go up in playability

Really appreciate this video, and I think a lot of your points make sense :) I placed Arjun in C because he a very small pool of good 3-cost in the first set (just Cernunnos and Daughter essentially), but he is my main and if you get 3 strong Unique Quetzalcoatl, I think (I hope) my deck is A tier! Uniques can really change a lot of the game, but this tier list is trying to rank everything without them considered of course

Thanks for the commentary, I am building a Kojo Ramp deck and your video is super helpful. One question: game 2 turn 2, is there a reason why you put the Jinn in mana rather than in your hand ? The second option seems also good since you get 1 extra draw from the Jinn and you can play it again later on for extra value. (also, if you intended to put the Jinn in mana at the end of your turn or expected a removal, I would have rather played the common instead of the rare). All the best :)

Awesome video! Thanks for sharing.

Great video, I have been enjoying your channel a lot, keep going :) As a nitpick tho, i would like to know the number of cards in hand your opponent has, maybe I am unable to get it and it is already there, but in this kinda games like Afanas it would have been nice to see that kind of advantage.

Inari rare effect should have been on the common
