Favorite House (that fits your style)

By Cgriffith, in KeyForge

Which House do you believe fits your style of gameplan best?

For myself personally it's [Untamed]

It has an high ability to create it's own eamber. It has strong combinations which force you to make decisions which in some case may help you or hurt you occassionally. The card art is absolutely fantastic (especially "Bear Flute") that card is just great art (don't mind it's ability). I'm interested to hear others favorite House.

I look at it 2 ways. My favorite house theme, which you didn’t ask for, but are getting anyways, is Sanctum.

The house that fits my style best is Logos. I like their ability to set up big turns with their ally houses through sculpting your hand and archiving.

Mars on both counts. I have two decks featuring Mars that are just incredible at buidling boards and hands and doing things with that (favourite cards: Squawker, Incubation Chamber, Orbital Bombardment, Yxilx Dominator). I also love the trash sci-fi theme they have, at the same time so fitting in the setting and so distinct from it. On that note, through play I've actually started being invested in the crucible setting, it feels very well constructed to fit the game.

This right here... I think this is one of the key factors that make for some of the strongest decks I've played or played against. Logos makes any other two houses better. Card draw and card advantage almost always win games when it comes to most of these sorts of card games.

My favorite however aesthetically is probably either Shadows or Mars. That being said it is only by a small margin. I actually really like all of the houses in this game, and that is a huge first for me. There is usually some I like and some I really dislike in most of these sorts of games.

Brobnar is pure red from MTG so I guess it's my style.

However mars is so much fun.

Shadows is such a great faction to have in your deck, but I don't like them.

Got these three in my first deck and I liked it.

I think Mars fits my style the most......but Logos is still the best house.

Combination of Logos and Shadows. Card draw as others have said is super good, making the house not so great on its own but a great supporter to set up big plays for other houses. Shadows just have so many little cool tricks and ways of gaining aember while annoying your opponent not to mention all that elusive effectively being double board presence.

Shadows on both occasions.

With a long, long history of MtG I always loved small flexible creatures with powerful abilities.

The reactive style of stealing your opponents ember and winning even though they had a board with a bunch of 6power creatures is cool.

Urchin, Bad Penny. Love those cards

However I assumed I wouldn't like the 'red and white' houses of Sanctum and Brobnar but I seem to like every house (with Mars being my least favourite). RG has chosen to let go of "colour limitations" like MtG traditionally has and has instead opted for giving every house a distinct feeling with a lot of flexibility which seems to work great. I'm impressed.

I like Dis and Sanctum personally.

Shadows is my current favorite in theme and playstyle. Mars is super fun though, so that's my second.

I'm surprised, but it's Brobnar. I've never been a "Big Creatures and Burn spells" player in M:TG, but the aggressiveness of Brobnar is really working for me. Coward's End is my jam!

I have yet to play, i have some decks, and am drawn to Sanctum, but I have found some decks I have that look insane that both have Brobnar and Untamed both. So we'll see.

Bronbar and untamed sure has the potential to be very scary considering both can flood the board with creatures

Brobnar has the only dragon.

Mars has a city smashing thing and a dominator robot that has to wind up from stun to do its work.

Dis has some of the coolest looking cards, and hand plus board disruption.

Shadows literally win games by denial and using the opponent's success against them.

Untamed has a card whose flavor text is: "At the heart of every bear lies... another bear".

Sanctum are literally energy angels in power armor, everything 40k junkies would love and a great concept from Babylon 5.

LoLoLoLogos are all about hand advantage with archive and draw, and their sci fantasy beings into robots [also 40k inspired, or so it seems] and experimentation chaos are fun as heck.

So who to choose?

Brobnar. They still have a dragon.
