Rhonas is the only one I really tested and it didn't blow me away. Will cerainly give Bontu a try in some of the shells you suggest. Hazoret is very much one I intend to add but I think I'll be waiting on it rotating out before bothering to pick one up now. Kefnet feels a little narrow for the drafting cube but I do like the place and hope to get a chance to play with it.Nick Nobodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08217616255450989605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7069223956725485027.post-5716609355125978512017-10-20T05:48:55.527-07:002017-10-20T05:48:55.527-07:00Hey Nick, long time reader, first time commenting....Hey Nick, long time reader, first time commenting. <br />Firstly, thanks for the brilliant card reviews and lists, always such a treat to read and have added a wealth of value to my cube!<br /><br />Secondly, just a comment on your review. Bontu, the Glorified has been killing it in grindy black x decks, easily winning me a few games. She fits super well into the Stax, Attrition or Tokens decks and is more of a reward for the deck you've built rather than the main engine of a deck. That said, I have also found her to easily keep up with aggro decks if you can get some cheap, recursive creatures out early, with the life drain sealing the deal to put you out of their reach. I think if you don't support the full Attrition or Stax package, Bontu is not really viable, however, if you do, she can really show her worth!<br /><br />So far the only Amonkhet god to not have performed well in my cube has been Oketra. Surprisingly, Kefnet has been very powerful, particularly in the Upheaval decks. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01682091569025871354noreply@blogger.com
