Being a support hero is a super interesting concept. His value comes from multiple activations and adding attack power to his allies which is unique for a huge figure. It's for sure something we haven't really seen before and I appreciate that.
I generally think Iron Lich Viscerot is good enough to limit future Eisenek figures in power level (based on design teams). Due to his bonding and vile injection, it would make any already powerful Eisenek figure even better. Essentially, Renegade will need to limit Eisenek figures incase they get their own Q10 or Q9 style figure. We already see how good Iron Lich is with the Wraithriders and Hellforge. We are going to have to see the power level of Eisenek figures going foreward.
When the haslab was announced my two favorite factions were the Clockwork Combine and Ironclad Collective. I'm so excited that the Esinek Army Expansion is out and it makes a great addition to my collection. I went 3-3 with a Esinek Roman build last month at a tournament a lot of fun now I just need to learn how to play him well.
For Vile Injection, can it only be used on a turn where you activated Viscerot first? I read it as being able to be used any time you're about to move an Eisenek figure. For instance, just taking a turn with the wraithriders by themselves or taking a turn with Hellforge, wouldn't you be able to activate Vile Injection during those turns? Maybe the wording "another" Eisenek figure infers you just took a turn with Viscerot.
The best rule of thumb for powers is to “do what the card says, not what it doesn’t say”. Based on what it does say, I believe you could passively activate vile injection without activating Viscerot first.
I didnt know about it bonding with legionnaires, thats sweet, so does that mean if you were running a legionnaire, vicerot, and wraithriders would you be able to basically like double bond on the same turn if you started your order markers on the legionnaires, moving them, vicerot, and the wraithriders on the same turn?
Romans were wave one, I believe Sacred Band were wave 4, not everything had been thought through when Legonaires were designed. That's one reason why they have stayed competitive.
As heroscape grows your channel will grow :) give it time.
Great Review, can't wait for the other units to be reviewed!

@SirHeroscape That's how I'm interpreting it too. You can use it before you move an Eisenek figure so long as Viscerot is in range.
He's too expensive in classic right now, I really hope he goes down in cost in delta.

@@adeco3992 no, because Viscerot requires you to reveal an Order Marker on him in order to use his Puppeteer ability
No, the Puppeteer ability specifics a turn that you reveal an order marker on Viscerot. They definitely thought ahead with that wording!
@@SirHeroscape ah dang, good though because that would be busted😂
Sacred Band should be able to bond with any Warlord if romans can. Not a fan of unlimited warlord bonding, should have just been Einar.
