FWIW, I am kinda disappointed with the four horsemen/seals in general. Third seal is awesome as an enhancement but other than that they are not very good... I feel like these could have been the cornerstone of the set but instead they have starter deck abilities.
Hey,Just wanted to say Greetings
I'm slightly worried about the power of Covenant with Prayer. Up to this point the cards you could pull out of reserve were pretty specific (Demons pull out demons, watchman pulls out prophets, etc) except for the lost soul but that's balanced by having to wait to draw the card you pick. Being able to target literally any kind of card and put it straight to your hand means every deck that doesn't have some kind of specific plan for reserve (Like demons seem to) will just play Covenant with Prayer and a reserve with 10 of the hardest counters to whatever decks are popular.

I think Power of Prayer is a great card with obvious versatility.

Can we just talk for five seconds about how the Michael reprint is the most underwhelming thing ever
Can we just talk for five seconds about how the Michael reprint is the most underwhelming thing ever and how the Red Dragon reprint is the most incredible thing ever and it's so cool and I'm so happy with it and boy oh boy is that ever how you do an ultra rare and I can't decide whether I want it or Three Woes more?
FWIW, I am kinda disappointed with the four horsemen/seals in general. Third seal is awesome as an enhancement but other than that they are not very good... I feel like these could have been the cornerstone of the set but instead they have starter deck abilities.But thanks again for previewing the set like this and being respectful of criticisms
Agreed... unfortunately...
Why is it that Michael can only band to a warrior class Revelation angels? Why can't he band to any warrior class angel? I mean it is Michael the Archangel!
Quote from: dermo4christ on April 12, 2017, 09:48:35 AMLove The Haunting Spirits! It will be great with Tartaros!If you are planning on discarding your Revelation demon with Haunting Spirits and then place the discarded demon in Tartaros, you won't be able to decrease a human 3/3. Tartaros is an "Instead" ability, and when something happens "Instead" of the cost in a cost-benefit ability, you don't get the benefit.Just something to keep in mind.
Love The Haunting Spirits! It will be great with Tartaros!

This could just be a difference in deck-building style or preference, but I think the versatility of the Seals is being vastly underrated by those who have been less than enthused with their abilities. A card that can be used to block as an EC or be used as a straight up battle winner on offense is so clutch.
