Crunch and Chaos Episode 5 - All your amber belong to us!

In this episode we dive a bit deeper into the design of the Call of the Archons set. Specifically we talk about the idea of a power level threshold in which a creature can be defined as a board control creature (creature used for fighting) and a utility creature (creature that is primarily there for it's effect and to reap).

We would love to hear and thoughts you have on the topic below and thank you for listening.

I haven't listened yet but I certainly hope you included Skirmish in your discussion of how good a creature is for board control. Snufflegator can fight and kill a lot of things. Even Quixo the "Adventurer" can remove some ugly threats like both untamed witches and stay on board to fight or reap on another turn.

And then there's the skirmish+poison creatures. I guess I'll be back later after I listen in.

I don't remember if we talked about Skirmish specifically and i know we didn't talk about Poison but we we were very clear the this threshold is merely a guideline and that there are many creatures that fit outside of it including Skirmish and Poison creatures. Additionally, this threshold is really two parts. One part if the Power of creature and the other part is the removal, specifically the removal that deals damage.
