    The problem with Warmonger is that it does nothing into Prism 😅

    Which was the number one card to tax Prism players from doing shenanigans as a reaction or link step.

    Boltyn is my main but the more other warriors are doing well the worse we will be. I think the points we got recently were mainly just due to timing and getting lucky in not drawing to many warriors. Though I am absolutely loving seeing all the different deck ideas people coming up with.
    Boltyn feels like he is on a fine line between being good and amazing. We just need a couple more interesting light cards. I originally thought we were going to be able to summon Beldona to have an ally but it didn't happen. I love Boltyn lore and would love to see an Eirina like ally/angel we can summon.

  • @piralos1329
    @piralos1329 5 місяців тому +4

    I suspect if Prism becomes more of an issue, we might see a rise in decks like Dash I/O, or like you said, just more timesnaps and time skippers? There is also a question of just trying to survive Prism's turns where she's trying to do the ALS loops - she's functionally only really able to press for 4 damage (two blues to play ALS, pitch to swing with Avalon to get it back?), which is very survivable? And it's not like she can do it forever, it does use up resources! So maybe the solution is to simply play more defensively into that match up once she has that set up, survive those turns, and then try to pressure her after? I don't know, but it doesn't feel like an impossible match up by any means!!
    Also Dash in general seems p good into her, given how Dash can generate extra action points!

    • @EmpyreanLight-Mira
      @EmpyreanLight-Mira 5 місяців тому +1

      prism will deal more than just 4 damage a turn with loop, as the loop allows her to set up other win conditions, such as stacking counters on angels with Bellona.

    Boltyn is in a strange spot, if you know there are a lot of Prism players, it's a very good deck. If there is a lot of Warrior players, it's a bad choice since you would need to Lumina combo your wins, but still not that reliable

      @@DMArmada I disagree. I don't think any of the angels should be hit. First, they're one ofs that once lost can't be replaced, Remberance and Memorial Grounds only targets actions so only Avalon can get them back and even then, she's likely on a very limited time span. And second is that it feels wrong for the fantasy of the deck. I can't explain it exactly, but forcing Prism to at max only run 7 of the eight Archangels just feels bad. (It already feels bad enough that Figment of Tenacity is better left out of the deck) If anything, look to when people were calling for Tomeltai to get hit, and he could be recycled.

  • @Lashkor
    @Lashkor 5 місяців тому +2

    Warmonger's is REAL hit or miss in Warrior. Sure you can play it, and then you can draw all action cards and have an incredibly weak turn to follow up, so it's a big question as to the value of that card in Warrior specifically. If that's how it pans out, it's probably negative or equal value for you.

    • @DMArmada

      @Lashkor 5 місяців тому +2

      @@DMArmada yeah that definitely can happen, but really depends on your list. Between cards like Spill Blood, Hit and Run, Spoils of War, Outland Skirmish, there can definitely be some bad draws.
      I think you have to decide if that potential is worth the potential Azalea upside. Most Aza lists aren't on non-arrows any more, so it's probably fine to run a couple. You do usually give up a second swing for it though, so I dunno.. Still on the fence.

    People are waaaay overreacting when it comes to the ALS loop.
    Yes, playing against it can feel oppressive, but the loop, from my testing, is harshly resource intensive.
    So much so that it does not stick around for more than a few turns most of the time.
    Simultaneously keeping Prism's soul charged AND having 6 resources to spend each turn is very tough to do long term.
    The loop is a tool, but it is in no way as bad as people make it out to be.

    So, Prism with 10 wins in the 1st week and 13 in the second is a big problem. Azalea with 9 and 14 is also a big problem. But Kayo, a new hero from the latest expansion set with 15+15 is completely fine. I'm not saying Prism and ALS loop are fine, but it's way to early in the meta to start all this drama, asking for nerfs. Try do adapt your decks (there are some tools to stop ALS loop) instead of crying and asking for bans, because if that's the way the game should progress, every deck should be nerfed.
    As an Azalea main, I don't really like to face Spinal Crush/Chokeslam/Crippling Crush/Star Struck/Warmonger's Diplomacy. Should i start asking for nerfs to Guardians/Bravo as well? Or should i learned how to play the matchup, even if it's a bad matchup?
    And of course, part of the problem are these channels that instead of having a good video/conversation about how to fight Prism and some strategies people could adopt, have a video already asking/suggesting for nerfs, 1 week after the meta has changed.
