King of Beggars
Amazing tribute support plus thinning, basically a Roach on Steroids. As already stated playing Savolla might trigger him immediately. A challenge might be that you only get the coins back. So you still need them. Concerning the optimal leader it might probably still be Off the Books. Maybe there are also great Combos with Fallen Rayla. When summoned he can also be used as a spender.
Synergies: Tribute cards, Profit cards, Coins
Downsides : Can probably be nasty if you do not have enough coins/tribute cards to trigger him.
Evaluation: I would evaluate him as a 9 out of 10. Probably the strongest deck summoned card in the game.
Regis Reborn
Also strong vampire support and a great finisher. His value is basically 7 + 1 for each round with bleeding. . If played as last card and there was bleeding each round his bleeding boost will be 15. So his max value will be 22 for 13. He might also be able to remove some cards which are at 3 power. In total he can be a huge finisher in vampire decks.
Synergies: Bleeding
Downsides: In situation where you feel forced to play him early he has only limited value. Can struggle if you face veil-heavy / immune heady /non-unit decks.
Evaluation: I would give him a 8 out of 10. He is a great point slam tool for a short round 3. Vampires where originally mainly engine focused.
Jan Calveit
Really not sure about this one. If you build a tactic heavy deck to get the most out of him, you might end in situations where you Hefty Helge does not get enough tactic food for instance. From my perspective he is as a 8 for 10 overpriced.
Synergies: Tactic cards, Decks whose success heavily relies on having many of your golds
Downsides: You spend a lot of provisions and deck building constraint for making sure that you draw your gold
Evaluation: I would give him a 3 out of 10. Interesting idea but not competitive at this power-provision ratio.
King Radovid
The card which reminds me most of him is Damien de La Tour, who can be of intense value if you play him into Tactical Decision, Enslave, Imposter, Imperial Formation or Double Cross. I ask myself whether 1-2 charges of NR leaders can be of similar value.
Most obvious target might be Inspired Zeal as you can always use one charge in order to boost him and immediately get the Second leader charge. Then he would be a 10 for 10 + 1-2 Zeal carryover potential. Isn´t Siege Support the cheaper option?
1-2 extra charges for Pincer Maneuver appears to be an overkill but can have huge value in Snowdrop decks.
For shieldwall the value might be comparable to inspired Zeal and there are also many cheaper shield givers
For Uprising you only get at max 2 points from him.
Best synergizing is probably Stockpile when you manage to have a cooldown heavy row.
Synergies: Units that synergize with the leaders described above
Downsides: If you draw him too late you might already have spent too many leader charges
Evaluation: I think he is a 5 out of 10. Interesting carryover potential but questionable value for 10 provision costs.
Saskia Commander
Due to the fact, that she simply summons bronze units, she is definitely not a harmony support. In fact, she does not synergize with harmony at all since one summoned different unit summoned means one less different unit being played. She offers great thinning potential. Because of the fact that you randomly summon a different unit you have to be careful with row-locks and avoid all deployers. The units below can make sense:
- Hawker Smuggler; Human (Careful with Melee lock)
- Sorceress of Dol Blathanna: Elf
- Cat Witcher: Witcher
- Dol Blathanna Sentry: (Think about row locks too)
- Dryad Matron: Dryad (Be careful not to flood your row so that you can play Saskia Commander the second time
- Duen Canell Guardian: Dryad
- Dwarf Beserker: Dwarf
- Dwarfen chariot: Machine (mostly because of the machine category)
- Elven Seer: Elf
- Hamdryad: Dryad
- Abandoned Girl: Human (Transform her to summon a second human, Nature´s gift synergy)
- Elven Scout: Elf (if you additionally use many traps
- Elven Swordmaster: Elf (row-locked)
- Miner: Dwarf
- Mahakam Defender: Dwarf
- Pyrotechnician: Dwarf
Synergies: Have to build a non-harmony deck with at least 10 different categories
Downsides: Most be very careful to have a target in hand.
Evaluation: I would give her a 4 out of 10. At her current stats she appears to expensive (Novigradian Justice into Mahakam Volunteers only costs 10 provisions (+ 5 for the Volunteers), appears to be much less risky and offers the same thinning potential.)
Cery Fearless:
Currently, I can difficult imagine to see her play. Getting 9 self-damage is kind of difficult, especially if you want to replay her with Lippy. Her order can make sense if you face a heavily damaged Melusine or other unit if you are lucky. The self damage can be used on Dracoturtle, Olaf, or units with small body (maybe Harald´s Pals, opponent spies,…)
Synergies:
Self-wound archetype
Downsides: If you draw badly and/or face a control heavy opponent there is a probability that you do not manage her to get summoned. Probably only playable with Ursine Ritual
Evaluation: I would give her a 3 out of 10. Very conditional thinning and very conditional order value.
Cyrus Engelkind Hemmelfahrt
For me he´s the better Jacques in firesworn decks. He has the same strength each and every round. His deploy has at least the same value and does not cost coins. His fee is very strong as it allows you to replay your Fallen Knights for instance. However, I do not like that graveyard summoning which was once a SK stand-alone stuff now is also used by SY.
Synergies: Congregate, Firesworn
Downsides: Must be sure to have enough targets in your graveyard and enough firesworn ttokens and coins.
Evaluation: He is a 9 out of 10. Strong support for firesworn and only for the reason that firesworn is struggling not OP.
