Cards of the Silvan Watcher

Today we will cover the cards that make up Rossiel's hero pack- The Silvan Watcher. Rossiel is a Lore Sphere hero with a set of cards matching her status as an Elf from Lothlórien. As a reminder, all cards are subject to change before delivery subject to playtest and licensor approval.

Let's start with Rossiel's hero card, which we've updated since our sneak peek earlier this summer:


Rossiel is a 9 Threat Lore Hero with the Silvan Trait. Her stats are:
Attack: 2
Willpower: 2
Health: 9
Rossiel's Power allows her to recover a non-unique Hero and also to grant Surge to your next ally played this round.


Now, let's look at the Watcher's tactics card...


This is a 3 cost Tactics Ally with the following stats:
Attack: 1
Willpower: 1
Heath: 4
The Sharpshooter is a Silvan trait card with Ranged who gets to make an attack on an enemy that is attacked by any other Silvan card.


This is a 1 cost, 2nd level Lore Preparation card that deals one damage to all enemies once an enemy defeated. If this results in another enemy being defeated, another damage is dealt, and so forth until either every enemy is defeated or no enemies are defeated.


This is a 1 cost Leadership Ally with the following stats:
Attack: 2
Willpower: 0
Health: 3
On arrival, this Silvan card gains Guard for free during the first round of play (though you will need to activate defense in subsequent rounds).


This 2 cost Spirit Event grants a single non-unique Ally +2 Attack and +2 Willpower, but at the cost of that card gaining fleeting. This means you get a major stat boost, but that character goes away during the end phase.


This completes the list of cards available in Rossiel's Hero Pack. We hope you enjoy these new cards in play when they are released.
