Why Lorna Shine is so good in Bronze? [ESP-ENG]
Lorna Shine es un invocador del Splinter Vida de la edicion Dice, opacada por Mylor Crowling pero la verdad es que esta carta no tiene nada que envidiarle a Mylor y a ningun otro invocador.
Por un lado hay invocadores que tienen habilidades o buffs que sirven para situaciones especificas, como Mylor, que si no te usan Melee no sirve de nada o como General Sloan, que si no la combinas con Ranged tampoco sirve. Esto no los hace especificamente malos, todo lo contrario, todos los invocadores estan pensados justamente para eso, para tener un abanico de posibilades a elegir para enfrentar al oponente, es ahi cuando aparecen invocadores como Lorna, una carta que no importa cuando y como la uses, siempre es util. Esos son mis invocadores preferidos, y creo que de todos Lorna es la que mas se destaca en Rango Bronce y en este post voy a explicar por que, asi que bienvenidos.
Lorna Shine is a Splinter life summoner from the Dice edition, overshadowed by Mylor Crowling, but the truth is that this card has nothing to envy to Mylor or any other summoner.
On the one hand, there are summoners that have abilities or buffs that are useful for very specific situations, like Mylor Crowling, which is useless if your opponent don't use Melee cards, or General Sloan, which is useless if you don't combine it with Ranged attack cards. This does not make them specifically bad, on the contrary, all summoners are designed just for that, to have a range of possibilities to choose from to face the opponent, that's when summoners like Lorna Shine appear, a card that no matter when and how you use it, it is always useful for a very neutral buff. Those are my favorite summoners, and I think Lorna is the one that stands out the most in Bronze Rank and in this post I will explain why, so welcome.
Sus stats.
El primer punto a favor para Lorna es que cuesta solamente 3 puntos de mana y eso es muy util en Bronce, sobre todo en el formato Modern, porque los invocadores de Chaos Legion son de 4 y 6 puntos, asi que ese punto extra de mana se traduce en poder enviar mejores cartas a la batalla.
Otorga la habilidad Divine Shield a todas tus cartas, esto lo que hace es ignorar por completo el primer daño que recibe cada una de tus cartas, esto no suena muy maravilloso a la primera pero cuando lo ves en batalla la cosa cambia por completo. Sobre todo en rango Bronce porque es donde mas batallas de bajo mana aparecen y creo que este buff de Lorna funciona mucho mejor en batallas de -30 mana que en batallas +30. ¿Por que? Mientras menos mana hay disponible, mas debiles en general seran las cartas que se podran invocar y que cada una de ellas pueda anular la primera vez que recibe daño es una bendicion en estos casos.
- Se puede combinar con cartas de un costo de mana bajisimo como Pelacor Conjurer, Vulguine, Celestial Harpy o Time Mage, esta ultima es de las mas importantes para esta carta por la siguiente razon:
Her stats.
The first point in favor of Lorna is that she only costs 3 mana points and that is very useful in Bronze, especially in the Modern format, because the Chaos Legion summoners are 4 and 6 points, so that extra mana point translates into being able to send better cards to battle.
Gives the Divine Shield ability to all your summoned cards, this ability completely ignores the first damage that each of your cards receive, this doesn't sound very wonderful at first but when you see it performance in battle it changes completely the perception of the summoner. Especially in Bronze rank because it is where more low mana battles appear and I think this Lorna buff works much better in -30 mana battles than in +30 battles. Why? The less mana is available, the weaker in general will be the cards that can be summoned and that each of them can cancel the first time it receives damage is a blessing in these cases.
- It can be combined with very low mana cost cards like Pelacor Conjurer, Vulguine, Celestial Harpy or Time Mage, this last one is one of the most important for this card for the following reason:
La importancia de la velocidad.
Enfocarte en la velocidad para usar a Lorna es buenisimo, tanto ralentizar a tu enemigo como aumentar tu propia velocidad, velo de esta manera, al empezar la batalla tus cartas, o la mayoria de ellas, van a atacar primero porque has ralentizado al enemigo y aumentado la velocidad de tus cartas, el contraataque de tu enemigo va a ser anulado por el Divine Shield de Lorna y luego, en la proxima ronda viene de nuevo una ola de ataques por parte de tus cartas. Habras atacado 2 veces a tu enemigo y tus cartas todavia no habran sufrido ningun daño, esa estrategia te va a hacer ganar muchas partidas y sobre todo en mana bajo, donde es comun que una carta caiga con apenas dos o tres ataques.
Pero eso no es todo...
The importance of speed with Lorna Shine.
Focusing on boost your speed to use Lorna Shine is great, both slowing down your enemy and increasing your own speed, this way, at the beginning of the battle your cards, or most of them, will attack first because you have slowed down the enemy and increased the speed of your cards, the counterattack of your enemy will be nullified by the Divine Shield of Lorna Shine and then, in the next round comes again a wave of attacks by your cards. You will have attacked your enemy twice and your cards will still not have suffered any damage on that battle, this strategy will make you win many games and especially in low mana, where it is common for a card to fall with only two or three attacks.
But that's not all...
¿Que mas aporta Lorna?
Las cartas mas debiles de tu mazo se potencian muchisimo gracias a Lorna, Celestial Harpy es un gran ejemplo, una carta peligrosa por sus habilidades pero muy debil de vida, segurisimo que cae al primer golpe y con Lorna se asegura al menos un turno mas en el campo de batalla. Lo mismo pasa con las cartas que suelen ser lentas como Stitch Leech y las que tienen estadisticas altas, como Uriel o Kralus, tambien se benefician mucho de Lorna.
Incluso para batallas de mana alto funciona, porque su buff es muy bueno y cuesta muy poco mana, si creo que tiene mejor uso en mana bajo pero eso no la hace inutil arriba, sobre todo en esas batallas entre 30-35 puntos de mana, donde tienes muchas opciones pero tampoco puedes pasarte de la raya, enviar a Lorna es una buena solucion para añadir una carta poderosa que le de mucha potencia a tu alineacion, por ejemplo Lorna + Adelade Brithwing, justamente una de las cartas que mencionare ahora, por su habilidad:
What else does Lorna bring?
The weakest cards in your deck are boosted a lot thanks to Lorna Shine, Celestial Harpy is a great example of this, because is a very dangerous card because of its abilities but very weak in life points, it will surely fall at the first hit it receive and with Lorna it ensures at least one more turn on the battlefield. The same goes for cards that are usually slow like Stitch Leech and those with high stats, like Uriel the Purifier or Kralus, also benefit a lot from Lorna.
Even for high mana battles it works, because its buff is very good and costs very little mana, if I think it has better use in low mana but that does not make it useless above, especially in those battles between 30-35 mana points, where you have many options but you can not go over the line, send Lorna is a good solution to add a powerful card that gives a lot of power to your lineup, for example Lorna + Adelade Brithwing, just one of the cards I will mention now, because of its ability:
Resurrect.
Lo que hace esta habilidad es revivir a una carta cuando esta muere ¿y por que Lorna es tan OP en estos casos? porque la carta el revivir, recibe nuevamente el Divine Shield de Lorna, aunque ya lo haya gastado. Si unes el Taunt de Shieldbearer con muchas cartas que tengan la habilidad Resurrect + lorna dando Divine Shield cada vez que el Shieldbearer resucite y ademas le añades reparacion de armadura o curacion al tanque, tendras una carta practicamente inmortal y como el invocador cuesta solo 3 puntos, es muy facil lanzar esta alineacion en una batalla de 30 puntos por ejemplo.
Resurrect.
What this ability does is to revive a card when it dies and why Lorna is so OP in these cases? well because the revived card receives again Lorna's Divine Shield, even if it has already spent it on its last life. If you combine this with Shieldbearer Taunt with many cards that have the Resurrect ability + lorna giving Divine Shield every time the Shieldbearer is resurrected and also add armor repair or healing to the tank, you will have a practically immortal card and as the summoner costs only 3 points, it is very easy to cast this lineup in a 30 point battle for example.
Conclusiones.
Lorna es para mí el mejor invocador que hay en el juego para batallas de mana bajo y uno muy útil también en otras circunstancias, así que para mí es una carta indispensable si juegas con este splinter, sobre todo en formato Modern dónde creo que Vida es de los mejores Splinters que hay, porque tiene muchísima variedad para jugar. Muchas gracias por leerme y nos vemos en mi siguiente post.
Conclusions.
Lorna Shine is for me the best summoner in the game for low mana battles and a very useful one in other circumstances as well, so for me she is an indispensable card if you play with this splinter, especially in Modern format where I think life is one of the best Splinters out there, because she has a lot of variety to play with.
