I Need a Hero (and Leander)

‍12:00 UTC

We know that Greek Mythology was absolutely crammed with strange (and sometimes frankly unhinged) relationships so today we’ve got 2 perfect examples of weird folk falling in love:

  • Pygmalion - falling in love with a statue you carved yourself is one way to meet the girl of your dreams so, when played, if you have played Aphrodite this game and your deck contains 4 or fewer Greek Mythology cards, give your Prominent Painters cards wherever they are +16 Power until played.
  • Hero and Leander - she was a priestess, he was…well, just a dude who was bad at swimming so, when played on Round 2, 3, 4 or 5, give your History of Heartbreak cards +16 Power until played.

17:00 UTC

Dig up something good in the Bone Bonanza Paleo Album Chaser. Featuring 1 Limited Rare, 2 random Limiteds and 3 random Basics, all from Paleo!

Midnight UTC

Today’s Fabulous Fish pack asks “How do you solve a problem like bone density loss in space?” Well, we still don’t know for sure but sending the tiny Medaka into space took scientists a step closer to solving that problem. When drawn, for every Space card in your deck, give your Fabulous Fish cards, wherever they are, +2 Power until played.

LEAGUE RULES

-----------------------

Can you pull off a quick win this week? This week’s rules are a Starting Energy of 80, Energy per Turn of just 8, Energy Cap is 100 and Minimum Energy of 8!

If you’re brave enough to stock up on some high Energy cards, Hot Jupiter could help you with Exploring the Star’s +100 Power Arena boost, and by filling up on a few Moon in Motion combos, Exomoon can certainly put some oomph in that deck! That’s not to mention Titian’s classic +25 permanent power to every common in the collection.

Raging Rivers picks up tonnes of Power Boosts in addition to this week’s +90 Power, with cards like 1849 Gold Rush, Rowing, Irritator and Mary River Turtle, that Rainbow deck just builds itself!

Mammals gets +80 Power this week, try them in a Life on Land menagerie to use Rudyard Kipling, or eke some power from Megaloceros and Göbleki Tepe.

Ingenious Inventions get +70 Power this league, Land Before Time gets +60 and Space Technology gets +50 Power.
