Paladin vs Siren Spoilers

[farkas1]

Oops did not see the prior posts.  My guess it's maybe another subtype.  So my guess it's not dark school but maybe pirate subtype to go along with water themed.  Similar to her being trained in song subtype spells!

Full water school
Song sub type
Pirate subtype

Thing is, every seems to be forgetting that the siren seems likely to be trained in mind. Think of Greek myths.

I would love to see her being trained in mind considering her mythological roots.  I don't see it breaking the game if she is fully trained in the mind school either.  However I feel her being trained in the song subtype maybe reflects the designer's decision not to go in that direction since it could easily be used in mind trickery.   With that being said I think we will see a ton of mind school spells in this expansion, but again maybe they are closely linked to the  song subtype.

I totally agree. I feel that you cant call her a siren without being trained in some level of mind. I agree with the song mechanic, but so far we havent seen any "siren" esque songs.

[Halewijn]

A Siren would not be good in force push/hold/... I could see her being able to use mind control however. I think farkas will be correct and the luring/mind games will be represented in the songs.

That means she super powerful. The promo war/water pirate is in the same boat as this new spoiler. Also, Laddin, if there is such a card, can the next spoiler be a new water attack spell or creature. Talking creatures, maybe the croc or kracken?

Why would that make her super powerfull? You seem to forget that the water school is a minor school of magic. compensating her training would not add many cards this way.

I agree with the specific kind of mind spells she would use. I overstated, she would have acsess to a fair amount of spells if she has training in anything water.

With undead pirates joining the Mage wars universe, will there be a chance we see a pirate ship conjuration?!?!?

If we can have bone dragons and giant earth golems I hope this is a posibility.  I don't know how viable a ghost pirate ship would be, but I think it will be pretty sweet to play one against an opponent!

Wow just wow. The artwork is through the roof. I can imagine the priest using this in combination with the new attack spell.

Or just with his trusty Staff of Asyra and Temple of Light.  Probably a good idea to surround it with Wall of Pikes to ensure it has LoS to a Target.

Cards like this might cause players to run Cloak of Shadows/Rolling Fog, etc, more often.

[Reddicediaries]

Agreed.

[Knabbmaster]

If you just make two holy attacks per round its 5 mana for 2 dice, 1/3 to daze and 1/3 to stun. And that is not very hard to do but one could also do more than just two attacks. So it seems to be ok...

Does the Siren really have Melee +2 from her own Siren's Call ability (friendly aquatic creatures have Melee +2)?

[Laddinfance]

The Siren can only use Siren's call on a single creature. If that creature is a friendly aquatic creature then it gets Melee +2. Sorry for the confusion.
