DECEMBER 6, 2022. NEWS. WRITTEN BY JOHN NICHOLS.
On December 14, Gods Unchained – the competitive Web3 trading card game – will release their first seasonal mini-set, titled Winter Wanderlands.
Featuring 20 powerful, brand-new cards, this set continues the story of Orfeo and Ludia from the conclusion of Season 1, and sees the champions of Eucos set foot on another world for the very first time – introducing festive cards that are sure to shake-up the meta for players.
In an exclusive for NFT Insider, thanks to Gods Unchained, let’s take a look at the SIX most powerful Legendary cards in the set!
1. Orfeo in Wanderlands
Orfeo in Wanderlands is a Deception 3-cost 1/1 Guild with Deadly, with the effect: “Hidden for 1 turn. After your opponent plays a creature, attack it. Afterlife: Shuffle this creature into your deck.”
Forcing your opponent to play removal for just a 3 mana card can be incredibly strong, especially in the early game – and if the Afterlife effect is unable to be negated, Orfeo can get real annoying, real fast!
2. Merry Kadmos
Merry Kadmos is a Light 5-cost 3/4 Olympian with Frontline, with the effect: “Roar: Pick one – Pull a creature from the board to the top of its controller’s deck, or Give +2/+2 to the Chosen One.”
Think Youthful Brewmaster in Hearthstone – you can use this effect to acquire cards you have temporary control of for the rest of the game, re-trigger Roar effects and much more – or give your Chosen One another hefty buff!
3. Sleigh Master Valka
Sleigh Master Valka is a War 5-cost 6/5 with Overkill, with the effect: “Roar: If you have fewer than two cards in hand, gain blitz.”
Being of the Viking archetype, this card benefits from a whole heap of support that can make it especially deadly in the end game, giving you a way to smash the enemy’s board with pure brute force!
4. Reinkeeper Selena
Reinkeeper Selena is a Nature 6-cost 3/3 Amazon, with the effect: “After this creature attacks, summon a base copy of a random friendly Wild creature with mana cost 3 or less. Roar: Summon two 2/2 Reinbadgers with blitz.”
An effective 7/7 for 6, plus more should it survive and be able to attack on future turns, Selena can quickly swing board control back into your favour. Synching with other Amazons could yield very powerful results!
5. Snowshaper Pallas
Snowshaper Pallas is a Magic 6-cost 3/3 Mystic, with the effect: “Roar & Ability: Transform a creature into a 0/1 Snow Statue with “Can’t attack”.”
1 mana more than Ratify, but with a much stronger effect. If Pallas can be protected, she can turn a game on its head in a flash – and support from the Mystic tribe only makes it better. Portal Wrangler, anyone?
6. Frost Queen Neferu
Frost Queen Neferu is a Death 4-cst 4/4 Anubian, with the effect: “Each turn, after the first time your opponent draws a card, plays a card, uses their god power, and attacks with their relic, their god takes 2 damage.”
Punishing your opponent for simply playing the game, Neferu becomes a prime target for removal the second it hits the board. As it triggers during either players’ turn, consider playing cards that force them to draw for additional damage!
