Kaede rocks btw and Crane get a really hot defensive card against all those card heavy players (may have to change style)

Kaede...wow. Now she's the COSMIC Sunday school teacher of the Fire Chickens ? ✨?✨

i wonder if each clan will get a 5 cost peep as the expansions roll out in turn. Would seem logical...

And lion got an unplayable card atm! (In organized play, until Worlds, possibly)

Not long though and that might impact the decision made at the worlds...

Magistrates! A goblin with... sneak abilities? Imperials related stuff? Awesome card art? Keeper/Seeker stuff? Interesting!

Why they do show a horse in a non cavalry personality? Ah, with Cavalry it would be Swifter Magistrate!!!

Oof. Adding seeker/keeper clan cards I feel is a mistake.

It might be unplayable for Lion, but not for other factions to take as influence.

I love these new cards!

Kitsuki Yaruma (sp?) just made Outwit an auto-include into my deck..., and I can now have a good 4-cost representative that can be useful in most circumstances.... this card will help elevate Mirumoto's Fury up a notch!

Every clan will have an unplayable card for the first year since everyone will receive both a seeker and a keeper card in the imperial cycle.

I will be buying the pack for Kaede alone, but the preview article totally ignored the goblin sneak (our first preview of a Shadowlands card?) and teased us with the existence of two neutral provinces but basically no information.

At any rate, in-clan role-specific cards? This only further makes me think the "organized play limits you to one specific role" thing is a bad idea, but that's another thread.

The goblin is neutral perhaps all the shadowlands fans will get to build neutral beastie and Mantis decks!

So each clan will get two cards and there will be six neutrals?

Well, unplayable for Lion, but if you're splashing Lion in Phoenix or Scorpion you'll... Hm.

I mean, you can use it there, but I don't know if it would be worth the influence. Basically the only thing I can think of is splashing Honored Blades as well and using it to run for an honor victory as Phoenix. The extra honor might also be helpful in Scorpion, but I feel like you have better things to be doing.

Kaede is one of my favorites of all time, so I'm very stoked to see her in card form so early.

Goblins are finally sneaking into new Rokugan.

Stop making me want to play Scorpion.

And magistrate is one of my favorite old keywords and I'm very excited to see Unicorn get it.

It's funny, I was thinking about switching to Meditations of the Tao as my fire province, since it has a reusable action, but once I have this guy, the stock of Night Raid/Restoration of Balance will increase a bit. Also helps Rally to the Cause/Elemental Fury

Do people want me to set up a spoilers thread again?

All the pretty artwork!

If they are maknig you play Scorpion with the glimpse of Kaede, what will happen when (probably in this very cicle) they show Kachiko?

I'll start something after Archery, so expect it in ~ 5 hours 1 hour.

Not a fan of cards with Keeper/Seeker restrictions. Everything else looks great.

Let's see here.....

Elemental master, nice....oh and some other nifty cards for the other clans.....wait what's this? A goblin!?

/spit-take

Gimme gimme gimme

I needs my Shadowlands preview. I wants it. It's my precious.

May I ask why? I think it's a very simple way to (slightly) change the meta around the organized play decisions, and make such decision much more interesting and relevant.

Not sure how will this Seeker/Keeper work, i'm just gonna ignore it for a while.

But i must say, it seems first Dynasty pack is getting released really soon, i wouldnt mind waiting a month or two more for it and playing only core set ?
