A welcome sleight of hand in the pink arsenal along with Nyala :) Great reveal video!!

This reveal is A+++, just like the spoiler sheet you have been putting together. Not only are you showing the card but even explaining it's mechanics and optimal game play. Spectacular. 10/10, not a single complaint

It's a tribute to the elegance of this game design that this one card itself dramatically increases the options of factions, Lyra and Yzmir, that had been struggling to gain favor with the most competitive players. Great job packing a lot of information in three minutes!

so excited for this set!

Love the card trick!

LOVE the reveal! Congrats and thank you!

Still getting into the game but this looks sweet!

Oooo definitely a staple.

That Purple shift is nuts

this was the best reveal in history of card game, congrats my guy

A Guy Trying? More like a guy succeeding at revealing a really dope card.

The 3 people in this video are lovely and legendary. Great video!

Mega nice Video Sir ☺️🤴🏻🧎🏾‍♂️ great job great Deck ☺️. I play her too with Plants 😎

Congrats!~

Congrats on your win 🎉🎉🎉

Great video!

A very cool video Sir 😁🙏🏾 great job

Very nice and interesting deck idea! Also, will you do an early meta guide for Arjun & Spike? I think this hero is underrated and there is no as developped content as yours about him on KZbin.... Anyway, thank you for your great work, I really love those videos!😊

Looks good

Always happy to see my boy Atlas getting screen time. Love seeing all those unique texts! Great video!

I love the altered rarity design, i get to play the card and get a feel for it and then decide if rare is good or not

Thanks again for making these! They've been extremely helpful for me making deck building decisions for various archetypes with my limited card pool :)

I kept the rare (out of faction) Robin Hood in my Auraq and Kibble deck and I thought it was still useful to gently inhibit my Sigismar opponent, gain an Auraq counter, get the extra water stat and the support ability to play high mana cards a turn early. I think that the Equinox team found a balanced and necessary solution. It is a game after all and when two sleeping Robins were out, not only would the Waru player win but the other player was not allowed to play the game.

Sorry. but Thanks gosh.

Hi - I feel it was needed, but it might perhaps be a bit of an over nerf. It will however allow for more decks to shine and I don't think it will stop Waru, but just lower its win percentage to stop giving hi free wins

So basically Waru only wins with Robin Hood, I think unfun is an understatement, this is straight up annoying

If you ban rb, it will just be until a new strong tax is printed that waru isn't a problem. Effects that create asymmetrical taxes, particularly synergistic effects, have a high tendency towards being problematic.

I think the problem is that Robin just gives free wins for Waru and Mack. Removing Robin will still make the deck fine, but its win percentage will go down. Trickster has been testing Waru without Robin in it and says that its not unplayable.

remove burocrat trait

I think waru is still good without Robinhood, but not broken. My friend has a waru deck and the way the game goes, it's usually if he draws Robinhood it stays on the board for 3 turns and he wins the game. If he doesn't draw Robinhood, it is a lot closer. Just the other day I went 2-1 against him and the game I won had no Robinhood but he was only 1 expedition behind me. The game I lost he played Robinhood going first on turn 3 (for all 4 mana), slept it, and then the next turn played sadman to sleep it again, and kept this routine going for 4 turns while I was struggling to draw into any removal spells

Where exactly did they say they would do something to robin ? Last I heard they just acknowledged the meta of the last tournaments without taking any commitment. And that's the right move, doing nothing for now. Altered officially released less than 2 months ago, and has only one set. This is a TCG, sometimes the meta is heavily leaning on a few cards, next sets will address that. And we're talking about what, 2 or 3 tournaments ? Waaaaaay too early to be sure. For instance a lot of high level players and playtesters are saying Teija and Kojo have a lot of potential against Waru, the community just hasn't yet settled on the top decks for their faction. Give it time. Modifying/banning cards so soon would send a terrible message for the rest of the game's life. Look what just happened in Magic Commander. Terrible idea really

If they decide to balance Waru himself i think that a good nerf could be to just remove the part of his effect that summons a token at noon if you control a burocrat, since that part of the effect actually just creates a better Sigismar that can hold burocrats effects for 2 rounds. If they remove that part of the effect the deck will actually become balanced in my opinion.

I don't know if Robin Hood is the only problem of Waru's deck, i played only once against a Waru and the first thing i noticed is actually what an insane card advantage can get really easily and really fast in the game. I don't remember what is the name of the Burocrat that has this effect: "If my spedition don't go ahead this turn you draw one card", that card looked pretty insane to be honest because it's a guaranteed +1 (since Waru can put her to sleep) and then it actually guarantees you either a +2 or a +1 and an expedition progression, because the only way to counter the second card draw is to let her expedition win, what a dumb mechanic for such a low cost card. I think that Robin Hood is annoying but is not necessarily the true win condition of the deck, with a much lower card draw engine in Waru even finding double or triple Robin Hood could be good but also bad at the same time, since he has really poor stats compared to his cost and is actually beatable on board often even playing a taxed card. Edit: i'm talking about the Attorney, especially the rare version. 2 cost draw 2 with board presence and can also proc Waru's token summon for even higher board presence; for me it's too much especially if you compare it with an already good card Baba Yaga, she just draws one card and has less stats than the Attorney by a lot if you compare in terms of stats efficiency, and this is by default without even considering Waru's synergy.

I love the game. Robin Hood needs a nerf.

I don’t think nerfing RH itself solves the issue since it just shifts the goal towards getting other tax cards (looks at 4/4 quetz/magistrate) The biggest question is why they thought printing such uniques was okay to begin with. Other factions have limits on other cards getting “special” abilities - eg you won’t see a red or bladedancer with gigantic + seasoned.. so why was this overlooked for me ordis? Think one way we can solve this is to erata the ability entirely.. players should be only able to activate it once per tax card played. So more like -> the next card your opponent plays costs one more (much like the discount version of this). They still get a big advantage that turn, but my cards don’t cost 3 more for the rest of the game…..

I certainly respect the skill that it takes to play Waru. However I agree with the comment that Robin Hood creates an unpleasant experience for a casual player as myself. In fact, from my experience consuming KZbin videos and listening to the three different English podcasts, the only players that enjoy playing Waru are other Waru players. This game offers a special opportunity for the Equinox team through Board Game Arena to try a temporary fix before any permanent errata. For instance they could announce a week or two when Robin Hood loses the Bureaucrat subtype and see the reaction of the community. Given that the most competitive Waru players have already purchased their three copies, I don't believe that this moratorium would negatively affect sales of Altered.

Waru will still be strong because he still has a great core with cards like ordis attorney and quetzalcoatl to use in its main strategy.

Waru can be fun 😂 but after 8 mirror matches it was fun to have an Afanas opponent 😅

wow waru so fun

Yzmir is my fav faction and these days I am testing its three leaders, so thank you for all the info provided. Keep the good work!

Kojo deck build next

Kojo deck build next pls

This is so clean and informative, I love content like this! We need more of it!

❤❤❤

I really like the format of cores that help a lot to build these decks. I have a friend s that really likes fen so this video is perfect for him

What program you use to make the decklist picture in 6:04

Incredible video here! Very deep and lrecise, we love that! I'm planning to play the deck, but the rares are hard to find... I hope I'll reach my deck buikd goals quickly

Be VERY careful passing priority with Meditation Training. The moment you cast the spell and anchor something, that thing will become a lightning rod for removal. It is better to wait until later to play Meditation Training for when the opponent is out of removal, or has to decide between removing your character vs. developing their own characters.

I am loving this deck and find it works very well and smooth, sometimes I get a hand full of spells but in some way can play around to get me in a good position late game, how are you personally finding it against waru? Im having a hard but winnable time with it. Sometimes if you do it right it takes a whole turn to even remove eternal dragon which can lead to Costing them the game because you just end up winning the opposite side.
