What do you folks think are the most exciting cards in Silver Age? When I think of exciting cards, I have in mind cards that you really want to put in decks not just because of efficient stats, but because they stand out from other cards, and evoke a positive feeling when you draw them because they do something cool or enable a cool play pattern that you enjoy.
Here are some of my candidates:
Sound the Alarm
Information is very powerful in this game, and Sound the Alarm gives you great information on what's coming from the other side of the table while still having good stats. A lot of generics with cool effects are sadly 2 blocks, but not this guy! Sometimes you also get to search for a D react, which is admittedly not always amazing in this format since we miss out on the best ones, but most heroes have some decent options they might want to run. I use it in my Pleiades deck where What Happens Next? can make it a 0 cost play, which is oh so satisfying. And I also love setting up Emboldened by the Crowd.
Loot the Hold
What can I say? This is such a power card for Gravy Bones, enabling the hero ability and providing a very scary on hit effect. Always a good time when you draw this.
Herald of Victoria
Modal cards are really cool, and this herald feels like it can fix any hand. It can pitch, it can attack and it has a special trick on either offence or defence. Would be amazing if it also went to soul, but that might be asking too much.
V of the Vanguard
This is one of the new playable non-equipment specializations in Silver Age, and is such a big card for Boltyn. V of the Canguard power turns are great! I wish more heroes had access to cool "pop off" cards like this. Specializations just feel kinda cool!
