I absolutely agree with this. I cannot believe how fun this card is. So happy I crafted her!
When I heard this card will be unplayable, I felt so bad that I got her in the first legendary of the expansion. But actually she won me so many game against many greedy control deck. A well designed card I think. Not overpower but still playable.
But Rin is good? And it's pretty common wisdom to not disenchant legendaries because of the duplicate rule unless you're desperate for that last 400 dust. So I'd say you only have yourself to thank
Just had a game where my opponent managed to get Azari while I still had 15 cards in my deck.
Its really frustrating how much of a trump card this is against control.
This card is retarded, I used to think it was useless because I was facing a lot of control warlock and they almost never threatened me with Rin, then I randomly opened it from a pack and started using it. Well it turned out Rin wins you game on its own against control, often it's better to kill her to avoid silence, and the rest of the deck can be draw/anti-aggro.
"Oh crap it's my turn but I don't wanna play anything"
"Might as well play these seals"
Then "Bann!" your seal had been countered by Mage's dirty secret. Every effort you had done are wasted.
Just having this card played against you makes you feel threatened and short on time. The potential threat of Azari will scare any slow deck.
Best design for a card in KNC!
Golden Azari FTW !
best entrance
Master Oakheart thinks otherwise.
I wonder where the sound files are for this expansion
Just wrecked a defensive Big Priest with this card. Burned his deck with 15 cards in it. She's actually pretty good against other control types. Of course looking at the stats you'd argue Fen Creeper is flat out better but a single card improving a variety of other matchups is enough to warrant her poor statline.
I dunno if I am totally out and this is just random thing, but Rin Tohsaka is a caster person from anime Fate Stay Night and she (as all other mages do) summons a heroic soul as her companion in fight for the holy grail AND summoning of that heroic soul looks really close to that seal cards this Rin does...
Oh yeas, the anime-Rin is also dark haired, but much younger... mby Rin after some years?:)
As for card - crafted for my control warlock and looks good, this card is insane with medivh, makes great late game advantage vs kinda every slower deck. What makes her special is that, even its end-game finisher card, is
1) She is not so expensive to cast
2) She has taunt and 6 hp
this makes her way better than other late game finisher cards vs aggro bcs when you play medivh, you know, you have sweet big boy, sweet staff in hand and that solves nothing vs aggro. Rin gives you chance to kill opp in future as well as providing at least some defense.
Best feeling ever: successfully summoning Azari.
Worst feeling ever: Potion of Polymorph
I meant on Rin, since this is the card page for Rin.
Well, in that case you should worry about actual Polymorph or simple silence because nobody runs the potion.
Oh my gosh, you're right- I totally meant plain Polymorph. :)
And, yes, Silence too, I just left it out because I was trying to be quippy and succinct. ;) But yes, my Rin has been both Silenced and Polymorphed, and both are a bummer.
