Most of the strongest, most disciplined warriors of the realm have banded collectively to kind the Whitestar Order, primarily based at Morningstar and led by stone golem Garus Rook. Their coaching grounds are dwelling to enlightened monks, mighty barbarians, and agile ninjas with their cute animal mates. Their power comes from each their teamwork and talent in fight. The Whitestar Order holds a sequence of combating tournaments referred to as Fantasy Strike, meant to convey collectively the numerous completely different peoples of the realm in hopes they study to query Flagstone’s rule.
Grave Stormborne is among the most devoted and expert martial artists within the land. He’s the embodiment of Self-discipline, which is his spec. Grave is totally targeted on growing his personal abilities, even to the purpose that some would say it’s a egocentric neglect of what he could possibly be doing to assist others. If you want a champion although, you’ll be comfortable to have Grave in your facet:
Grave solely wants to succeed in stage 3 to develop into a 3/4 with readiness, which lets him assault and nonetheless have the ability to patrol afterwards—becoming for such an adept fighter. As for his sword, he doesn’t use it usually. As a baby, the Nox Oracle instructed him to solely use it when vital. At max stage, he’ll agree to make use of it ONCE. It’s going to slice by way of ANY unit or hero—even a tech III unit shouldn’t be secure.
Heroes are particularly not secure towards the white faction. The white beginning deck comprises this monster of a spell:
Snapback works the identical approach it does within the Marvel vs. Capcom combating video games: you knock a personality out of play and pressure a distinct character into play. Heroes lose all their ranges and some other runes or attachments or no matter once they return to the command zone. Snapback is a really highly effective late-game spell, and also you’ll usually be tempted to play it as a employee early as a result of it won’t allow you to a lot then. Right here’s my recommendation although. I’ve mentioned this phrase rather a lot, “You already know, you wouldn’t have misplaced the sport proper there when you had saved Snapback.”
Again to the early sport although, the Whitestar Order is nice at working collectively in fight. Each these Monks from the white beginning deck assist your early combats:
I just like the distinction of their personalities. Savior Monk is peaceable and heals you, when you can already inform that Aged Sensei is disillusioned that you just’re not ok.
This beginning deck improve card additionally helps your early sport combats:
At simply 1 gold, you’re doubtlessly stopping numerous injury when you can assault sufficient. The extra you assault, the higher a deal this turns into. White’s teamwork right here makes them fairly a risk proper from the beginning.
On the tech I stage, Rambasa Twin works in an uncommon approach:
The 4 gold price is excessive for a tech I, however you truly get TWO of this man. That’s numerous presence on the battlefield! And one other perk is that he solely occupies one slot in your deck. Later within the sport when you could have higher playing cards, you received’t be drawing previous 2 copies of him to get to your actually nice playing cards; you’ll have 1 of him in your deck and one other in your codex.
Persevering with the theme of white (and particularly Self-discipline) items working effectively collectively in fight:
Be sure to coach up with Sparring Companion earlier than going into battle. In case your opponent permits you to maintain him, he’ll ultimately give all of your guys a +1/+1 rune. And when you’re keen to pay some gold, you may velocity up that coaching course of and spar with all of your items in a single flip.
At tech II, the facility stage is even increased.
Focus Grasp’s means is just a little stronger than I believe it first seems. He’ll save one in every of your items or heroes from dying, and he’ll do it 3 times, however he’ll solely do it if they’d EXACTLY die. In order that’s like if a 3/3 takes 3 injury (not 4 injury). You’ll be able to arrange these actual conditions although. In Codex, you do combats one by one so you can also make certain your 2/2 goes up towards their 2/2 and so forth. When you understand that, Focus Grasp is mainly saying “do 3 even trades, then maintain all of your guys as an alternative of them dying.”
Now that’s a strong Monk. He parries your strikes earlier than you even do them. When he’s on the desk, your items and heroes can’t be hit by any spells or skills that use the goal icon. This may throw a wrench in a bunch of methods your opponents may be utilizing, and it’ll pressure them to attempt to kill the Thoughts-Parry Monk one other approach, in all probability in fight, however he’s a fearsome 5/4 in fight.
Going again to the beginning deck for a second, there’s one other Monk who helps defend you from being unfairly focused:
Morningstar Flagbearer is true at dwelling within the white faction, as a result of Rook’s Morningstar Sanctuary is a spot the place a number of individuals who have been oppressed for being completely different have fled to. In gameplay, each Flagbearer and Thoughts-Parry Monk allow you to say “palms off my guys!”
Do you want having superior heroes? Self-discipline tech II can prepare up your heroes to their full potential:
Sure this one way or the other solely prices 1 gold. It’s good to get +1 ATK on all of your heroes (an impact you’re comfortable to pay 1 for by itself), but when your Coaching Grounds can survive only one flip, you may exhaust it to immediately max out any of your heroes. Do not forget that at max stage, Grave can use his sword rune to kill absolutely anything. Coaching Grounds is ridiculously environment friendly at leveling up your heroes and frees up numerous gold so that you can put into different issues. The principle downside is simply that it’s a constructing, that means it might’t assault or patrol and it’s important to defend it.
Now let’s take a look at a few of Grave’s spells. Grave is adaptable and versatile, so this spell expresses that:
It’s a toolbox all on one card. You’ll be able to beat flying stuff, invisible stuff, upgrades, or simply restore some injury from one in every of your buildings if none of that occurs to matter by the point you draw Versatile Type.
In order for you one thing extra simple, Reversal permits you to dragon punch a patroller. That may in all probability kill it, however even when it doesn’t, it would nonetheless knock them out of the patrol zone!
Now it’s time for some True Energy:
True Energy of Storms is among the strongest supers in Yomi. In that sport, it prices 3 Ace playing cards to make use of. On this sport, it prices 3 playing cards with a 3-gold price (neat!). When you can line up your card attracts excellent, True Energy of Storms turns into an absurdly highly effective finisher. You’ll be able to win the sport by casting two of them, or you may level it at any unit or hero to kill it. It even hits tech IIIs, which not many issues do.
And at last, the Self-discipline tech III has some sentimental worth:
Grave Stormborne’s father was a mighty warrior and a beast in battle. He was killed in battle when Grave was younger. This statue memorializes him. Even being close to it evokes different heroes with a +1/+1 bonus. Hero’s Monument summons the ghost of Grave’s father who’s an indestructible, untargetable, and unstoppable 8/8. Grave can not less than battle alongside the spirit of his father in superb battle.
