Card Art Showcase: Academy Walker
Dear Denizens of Issilith!
Everyone always talks about how the Drakkorith nation is mighty, how their warriors are hardy, and their strategic thinking has no equal. But that doesn’t mean they don’t excel in some other areas as well. One of the best examples of what the Drakkorith can achieve with their expertise combined is the Academy Walker.
On the very border of the Drakkorith territory, near the mountainous region of Solgard lies Zargonia, home of the Harkon academy. This place is known as the alma mater of some of the best Drakkorith architects and engineers, so it really doesn't come as a surprise that their academies are no less impressive. Branches of the prestigious Harkon academy are mounted on the backs of massive teradons, creatures Drakkorith biologists created through breeding ostodons with other animals in their attempt to bring back the long-gone dragons.
The question that arises is what is more worth the awe? Their success in breeding these large animals? Their engineering feat of mounting such grand structures on the creature’s back? Or their ability to keep the imposing beasts calm, even while they are on the front lines?
Academy Walker is a Drakkorith unit that costs 7 essence. With its stats set at 4/8, this creature doesn’t have too much problem with standing on its own four feet. But what comes as a little extra benefit for the player is the effect Academy Walker has. Every time it is damaged, it will spawn an Auric Cadet in a random zone. After all, they are here to protect. Depending on your playstyle, a card that may synergize well with the Academy Walker is the ability card Order: Shield up!. While it won’t be able to attack, it will still do retaliation damage, and the extra health and armour gained will give the Academy Walker more sustain, making it a real nuisance for your opponent to clear.
