Today we’re going to be doing battle with Fiora Pantheon in the Eternal season. With the new cards coming out of the variety patch, along with the buffs and nerfs coming out of the 4.5 patch, this deck is sure to be interesting.
One of the new cards that I’m particularly excited about is Sacrificial Scholar. This two cost Fated unit has Last Breath, which allows us to create copies of the first three spells that targeted it. This is similar to Saga Seeker, but with the added bonus of being able to use Strikes and Rallies to get even more value.
Sacrificial Scholar is also great because it’s good both early and late game. For example, if we play it on turn three, put a gem on it on turn four, and then play a Pale Cascade on turn five, we get a good trade and all those cards come back to hand. Or, if it’s turn eight and we want to play a Golden Aegis, we can target the Scholar with it and then get the rally back when the unit dies.
The Targonian Tellstones are also a card to watch out for. This card was double buffed in the 4.5 patch, and now a lot of the utility it brings has been improved. Many celestial cards have been updated and the Blessing of Targon now costs 4 mana instead of 5.
Overall, I’m excited to see how this Fiora Pantheon deck does in the Eternal season. It’s a strong board control deck that works well against a lot of small units, and with the buffs and nerfs in the 4.5 patch, it should have a good chance to shine. Let’s see how it goes!
