Favourite card?

Peacatcher

I thought this would have already been a topic but I can't find a thread about it.

What is your favourite card and why?

It doesn't have to be competitive, maybe you like the design or the function, maybe its a niche card that helped you out in a sticky situation. Or maybe its just really powerful and you've won a lot of games because of it.

Mine is Hel Shira Herald. I think the design looks great and I like redguard lore. I find opponents rarely remove this card if I have it active and a lot of opponents dont buy it. So most turns I can buy a card, immediately pull it to the front of my deck and use red Eagle patron or a draw combo to play it. Works well with the Crow combos and other Ansei cards with combos.

Would love to hear about other people's favourites!

I got 3 favourite cards; Grand Larceny, Midnight Raid and Blood Sacrifice.
I love the design of all 3 and the first 2 are very convenient when I am lucky and get them early in the match.
Luxury Exports also is a game saver sometimes but I don't like the looks of it.

Favorites: Grand Larceny, Currency Exchange, Midnight Raid, and of course Rally

Favorite design/graphics are Hagraven Matron and Briarheart Ritual

Least favorite: Imprisonment, probably because that thing "randomly" pops up every time an NPC needs it.

Elder Witch is one of my favorites to get early. You can thin your deck in a hurry if your opponent can't deal with it.

Otherwise I'm a sucker for Pelin cards, especially Legions Arrival and Seige Volley. Cheap and just DO WORK.

Grand Larceny is pretty good especially early in the game where it can help you buy almost any card. I do prefer the design on Pounce and Profit more though - sneaky ninja cat flying through the air!

Rally. I played a game once where I got 2 of these.

I love the image on the pounce and profit card, even though I'd rather get the upgrade in a game. The Rajhin flying the air to jump on an unsuspecting guard always makes me smile.

The Dreaming Cave: I can't live without toss mechanic if culling is not an option. Plus it draws you a card in its place. The combo 2 power is a bonus.
Augur's Counsel: Again, cheap toss. It can seal a win in late game when you are fishing for the right cards. Combo power is a bonus.
Elder Witch: Amazing culler that can stick to the board early game.
Harvest: Desired late game card to keep my cards flowing.
Ragpicker: A must have buy for me at all cost in a game without other culling cards, so no "dead" card stops the combos.

I generally like all "support" cards.

I prefer cards that feel powerful but not overpowered. So for example I like cards like Ceporah's insight or Shehai Summoning. I kinda enjoy the game less when someone getting a powerful card early like Midnight Raid, Currency Exchange, or Grand Larceny dictates so much of the flow of the game. I of course always try to get these cards first myself. But, I personally prefer the games when these cards come mid-to-late game and both players instead have to do make do with less powerful cards. Those matches feel more strategic.
