With Neon Dynasty giving us Isshin, Two Heavens as One, doubling our "when attacks" triggers, Copter has a chance to provide MAJOR draw advantage while filling the Graveyard to feed any sort of Delerium requirements. Mardu Vehicles making a dramatic return could also be quite the interesting turn of nostalgia. Eating top 8 after top 8 before facing ban after ban. The powerful 3/3 for 2 (Crew 3) defined a standard meta. With all of the new vehicle support and Affinity on the rise, I honestly believe Copter has a home in Historic. On top of all that, I'd like to add that obviously with the introduction of a digital space, any of these cards can easily face a rework, buff, or rebalance as we've seen with the new T3feri. But where is the follow up in the meta focused "Antholgy" series? Antholgy 5 was considered lackluster, and with close to three sets having passed and the introduction of Alchemy.is it safe to say Historic needs a new Antholgy? Yeah, I think it's pretty say.So with that being said, let's talk about some cards I think we the format needs and some I think it could honestly benefit from. Many Historic players have really been begging the question now.we've had Jumpstar add dozens of staples and Jumpstar "Horizons" add dozens of more. Which is to say, the Arms Dealer, for example, is a bit underwhelming using only a flintlock pistol, but I think he could cause significantly more problems if someone gave him a vortex beater. While most of the NPCs aren’t all too scary on their own, I think they just need to be given a little support. And later chapters will have more NPC focused content, once Chris gets through his first boss I’m really excited for chapters 5 and 6 for this reason!Ģ. But I like how the emotional side of the story as I’ve planned it has developed with his involvement, rather than just being however many of chapters of Andrew progressively having a breakdown, haha. Chris went through a lot of changes in his early development and only really came into the story after Purity Town underwent some big plot rewrites earlier on and I realized that the Hero character would be so much more involved in the story (and that, being a visual medium, I actually needed to give him a design). I’m really happy that folks like seeing hero characters.
But in terms of actual hero OCs, similar to Chris but to fill out the melee/ranger/summoner classes in an adventuring party, we won’t be getting any.Īll that being said, the core inspiration for this comic was always to do fun things with my favorite NPCs, so I hope that their active presence balances things out!ġ. And the Lunatic Cultist and Ninja may as well be OCs since only like 1% of their characters are supported by anything in-game, haha. There may be some other OCs popping up, whether in the background or in mentions of various characters’ families or something of the likes.
Ask response under the cut! I got a bit carried away with it, so it’s a long one.Ĭoincidentally enough, I recently received a pretty similar question over on Webtoons asking if other heroes are going to be joining in! But, full disclosure, I don’t have any plans to add in additional OCs that will be fighting alongside Chris as “heroes.” The plot/story I have planned just doesn’t have room for it - Chris is, save for the NPCs, on his own for this one!
