Good afternoon,
Returned to Mali and Ivan catched my eye. Yesterday i was trying him and the list looked the following:
-Ivan1 with hidden agenda
- Mordrake
-Eva
-Gibson
- 2 nocturnes
-Emmisary with flush with cash
-Prospect with flush with cash
-5SS
Played against Damian 1
-----------------------------
Used nocturnes as scheme runners, they worked as expected.
Gibson pread out fast + focus to nocturnes 1st turn. After that, every time was too far away from enemy. Not moving too muich, attacks bringin him too close to enemy (RNG6, charge distance) so i felt he didn't compensated their cost.
Eva died turn 1 one hitted due to Lohith boulder to face, so i need to test her further. (Wyrd needs to change the soulstode geode wording asap, theres no sense neutral damage flips at cost of 1 life per attack)
Mordrake was completely outplayed due to Lohith no demise auras.
Ivan summoned 3 daevas did a lil damage, but Daevas with stat5 dmg2min looked too weak for me.
Prospect will be removed. Bringed him due to heal, but realizing is just a trigger i think is not worthy at all.
Effigy adding SS using the flush and tanking worked pretty good
Game ended up 4-7 (Covert operation, leave your mark and Hidden martyrs).
I'm not totally sure how to make it work. Seemed for me they do a little bit of everything but they don't really pack a punch, Gibson costing 8SS he don't do too much, Eva being 7SS being one-hitted, Daevas not doing too much...
Any tip? Maybe adding Corvis, or something OOK will make it work better.
Thanks beforehand.
