I think many girlfriends/wives play mage wars. (like mine)
They don't play on OCTGN or comment on the forum, but they do exist.   

I wouldn't consider them hard-core fans, but they do enjoy the game, and that's what it's all about.

Since fif I feel the warlord is viable... you have the dispell/ teleport handicap but you can manage that problem.

Many different creatures, very strong earth magic, amazing equipment, conjurations, command spells ...
 

looking to the picture I would say a shrink ability. 

any idea what the wizard ability is? I see he is only trained in air.

And only 40 spellbookpoints! out of schools will be very(!) expensive!!

You guys, I'm sold, Whenever I can pre-order it, I'll do it! 

There are many spoilers in the video! It's hard to read but here is what I could make out of it.

1) Leather Chausses (equipment): armor +1 for 2 mana, pants are a new thing!

2)  Joined Strength (enchantment): target: animal creature, 2+1 mana, This creature gains melee +1. Whenever this creature is attacked and receives damage, you must transfer 1 of that damage to your mage instead. If this creature is destroyed, you may pay 1 mana to move Joined Strength to a new target in your zone.

3) Wynchwood hound  (creature). Level 1 canine, 5 mana. 0 armor, 7 life. quick attack of 2 dice. While wynchwood hound is in the same zone as 1 or more friendly wynchwood hounds it gains melee +1 and armor +1

4) Slavorg Fang of the first moon (creature). level 4 (sabertooth!!!) cat: 15 mana, 2 armor, 13 life. 4 attack dice, +2 piercing. Legendary, epic, BM only. it costs 2 mana less for each animal creature in your discard pile. at the end of his activation you may pay 2 mana to place a guard token on him. (What an incredible tank!  )

5) this blue guy, cannot read at 1 minute

6) ... gremlin. costs 4 mana, 3 attack dice, cannot read the ability

7) ..cated cockattice(?) 2dice + d12   effect: something with melee +1 and piercing +1

Explode is a incantation. Any thing that prevents an attack, (Like block, or daze or Forcefield) Explode can bypass. Its one of the few exceptions.

Is this correct? I've read multiple answers on the forum.

I would say that it isn't correct according to the rules, But it is logically.

You don't like your opponent to know how many dispels you have based on the remaining ones in the box? That's like counting cards at a casino. You will have a jist or how many of X are where(he has ~1-2 dispels left), but if you are keeping track(like going through the whole arcane pile to count how many dispels and teleports I have), then you are being a cheater-face and I will call you on it.

I kinda disagree. It takes only a few games to realise there are only 3 teleports, 2 flameblasts, 1 pair of gloves, 1 staff of asyra, 1 gorgon archer, 2 battle forges, etc... You cannot not know. It is really unfair when you have 2 teleports, your opponent teleports once and you realise, now I can pin him down.

We solved this problem by just remembering how many extra cards you take if there aren't enough of them. If possible, we take them out of the discard pile during the game. This can help as long as you don't do it too much. For the falcon deck mentioned above it is too annoying. (If you're playing a childish cheater, you could write it down  )

For example Beastmaster vs. Warlock: I want an extra teleport, then I take a divine intervention and remember: this is a teleport.
