![]() Torrent Sculptor forces you to have synergy with it/have curved out with a spell, and gives you a reasonable payoff for that – exiling a 3 mana card to get a 4 mana 4/4 with Ward is solid. Flamethrower Sonata is worse than just a removal spell, since you have to discard a good card to enable it, although it is often pretty good to discard Lessons to it. Neither mode is incredibly exciting, but both are solid. It’s still nice to have the option to cast Rowan, especially in spots where you can protect it well and it can threaten to ult, or when the cost reduction is good, and I might still play it by itself in a Red deck with good blockers and expensive spells, but it’s really not that exciting. Will is far far better than Rowan, and you play it by itself in Blue decks, since it protects itself and one activation of its draw mode puts you insanely far ahead. Rowan, Scholar of Sparks / Will, Scholar of Frost Still, it should be clear when it’s good and you should take it higher when you already have the support. In the right Lorehold deck, it can be solid, but White also has lots of good bearers of counters so I’m not inclined to rate it that highly. I don’t see many Prismari decks playing this at all. There are some counters and buffs in White, but Lorehold is overall quite slow, and this is a really bad blocker/attacker before you buff it – Raging Redcap had a lot of Knight synergies this card lacks, and was in a more aggressive colour to support them. Beyond that, a B+ means it’s almost an A, but not quite. Every grade can have a sub-grade within it, but the differences are most pronounced in the C-Category, so they have their own description. Grades are based on maindeck power level if a card is good in the sideboard, I will mention it in the review. (Smashing Success, Open the Omenpaths, Invoke the Divine since it’s a sideboard card in most sets) F: Mostly to totally unplayable cards.(D+: Scorn Effigy, D: Arachnoform, D-: Ravenform) D: Medium to bad filler, gets cut a lot.(Breakneck Berserker, Frostpeak Yeti, Weigh Down) C-: Mediocre playable or decent filler, gets cut around half the time.(Story Seeker, Elderleaf Mentor, Littjara Kinseekers) C+: Good playable that rarely gets cut.(B+: Demon Bolt, B: Sarulf's Packmate B-: Sculptor of Winter) B: Great playable: happy to pick early, pulls you into its colour.(A+: Goldspan Dragon, A: Esika's Chariot, A-: Elvish Warmaster) A: Very powerful card: bomb or close to it, pulls you strongly into its colour.(Kaya the Inexorable, Emeria's Call, Elder Gargaroth) S: Ridiculous bomb: has a huge immediate impact on the game and threatens to dominate it if unanswered.Consider booking a session today if you’d like real-time feedback tailored to you, and to learn in a more hands-on way!Ĭheck out all my articles here and follow me on Twitter for regular updates, or to ask about coaching! Legend (IMPORTANT) Developing a solid approach and way of thinking through self-reflection has enhanced my skills over the years, and I feature those techniques in my writing and in each session of the Limited coaching service I provide ( background here, testimonials available). On Arena I draft infinitely, having profited 40k or so gems from it at this point, and have made top 100 mythic many times.
