The pairing with Demacia in his reveal trailer mislead me into thinking Kench could be played with Demacia, which he can't. Without the Star Spring win condition, he doesn't survive long enough for a more ordinary win condition.

2. The generosity of the game makes netdecking a breeze. Which is great, don't get me wrong, but it gets to the...

Thank you! c:

Really interesting design haha. Must be fun to use multiple copies and summon all of them. I already imagine using it with cards like Sparring Student or Overgrown Snapvine.

Ow, was I too late? :c

Could I at least know what the card would've be? Without the image, just want to know what you had in mind.
