Always love your takes on deck building and hope your speech in the end helps mitigate the negative comments from players in the community who just simply look at the cards and go "meh" or "this new set does nothing".
Not using the Emerald Brainstorm in 8 door or the level 0 Mercury? Also, I prefer Ruby level 1 over the Cinder, even if Cinder is on flavor. I also like the level 2 Emerald if you can fit in more green.
Even though the Emerald brainstorm was designed for the 8 door villain deck, tap 2 characters and being a search instead of salvage are both disadvantages compared to tap self salvage of Nora. Mercury is a good card but conflicts with the new level 1 Arthur, and we’re also running 2/1 Cinder later down the line as well. That Emerald 2/1 is definitely a card to consider but like you mentioned, green is an issue and it didn’t seem like there were enough green cards worth playing. Ruby level 1 is definitely the better combo in most regards compared to Cinder, we wanted to feature different combos for flavor though!
It's been a while since I played WS and I'm coming back because of this extra booster. Why is the "Tyrian: Amused" good? Are there many effects now from lvl 0 that reverse level 1? This wasn't a thing in my time lol
Tyrian cannot be reversed by *cost* 0 or lower characters, so in a meta where at level 1 most decks only play costless characters, Tyrian can survive a decent amount of turns or force the opponent to play a costed character to answer them. Tyrian is a lot weaker in metas where standby is prevalent with their own costed characters at level 1 (Hololive standby, RWBY standby mirror, etc)
@@TressasCollectibles my god, I must have a reading impediment or I fell in a Mandela effect thanks to a friend who also read that he couldn't reverse against a 0 level, instead of 0 cost. I'll see myself out. Thanks for answering.

Great discussion, always nice to hear your thoughts !
Hell yeah that 8 bar build looks fun!

Dust was the best card in set 1
You were onto something
