Tom, thanks for the playthrough (and your first impressions) on this one. My wife and I play a lot of Deck Building games these days (Dominion, Star Realms, etc...) and this one seems to be really, really interesting ;) ... Oh, and the turn order deck appears to be a really cool way to add more tension to the game!!!

39:30 when you cast another player's Ignite, YOU put the charge on an ally because YOU cast the spell. In other words the person casting Ignite (from anywhere) never gets a charge from it.

Awesome run-through. One of the more interesting deck builders. Certainly answered some of the questions A friend of mine had. He played dominion quite a lot and thought that we had to discard cards not used. I'm glad I mentioned the correct way as you draw up to 5 cards.

I like how the market is random. Haven't yet seen some of the spells and relics you had there. Looking forward to the expansions for even more variety in market. I do however hope there are more basic nemesis cards in each tier. As of now I've seen lots of the same cards in the nemesis deck other than the cards for the nemesis themselves.

Waiting for my copy to arrive, these videos are really getting me hyped up! Can't wait!

45:35 You forgot to draw Nemesis card (just dealt 2 damage to Graveholm and removed power token from Blood Cry). Not that it would matter much, I hope (I don't remember whether Ragebourne deck has minions which prevent damage to Ragebourne until you defeat minion - such minion would have hindered you progress).

Brilliant. Thanks for showing us this.

Around 19:24, how does the spark each deal 3 damage? Where did the first 3 damage to Rageborne come from? The second one used to kill the provoker is buffed by the relic but the initial spark only dealt one damage. I am fairly new to the game, I'm still trying to get a handle on how everything resolves. Thank you.

Is it possible in a two-player game for the boss to take 4 turns in a row? For example, if the last two cards are for the boss, and then you shuffle the deck and the first two cards drawn are also for the boss?

[mgman]

Great explanations. I'm sold on this game.

[DarrenCarroll]

Great playthrough, thanks. I'm gonna pick the 2nd edition of this up

[ChaoticYAYO]

Can you play a prepared effect before casting in the casting phase?

[khshgsi]

The order of the turns is random. Now, let's say we are playing with 2 players, like you did in the video. Is it possible for the nameless to have their turn 4 times in a row? If his two turns are last, and then when you shuffle again, the 2 first card are the nameless turn. is the make sens?

[hardstyleminded]

Nice play though, very fun to watch. Also well presented, not boring at all.

If you had a link to a AE Organizer I would have just bought it through your link. Thanks for this great explanation!

[yavnekspksp]

after i kill neamelss do i go to next nameless? do i need to rest my card? or do i carry on with what i have from the last fight?

[Ogrecrusher]

Around 39:30 when you use your ability to cast his spell, are you the "ally" then or is he? I could see an argument either way, you're the one casting, but it's his spell...

[JasonSetley]

if you had to pick would it be this or Dragonfire?

[JesusGonzalez-itsv]

I bought the second edition and i have to say, i prefeer the first edition health tokens. Looks better to habdle.
