BanalityBob - 5/5 - This is not just the best avatar, but a fantastic Agency character. He blanks Rite of the Silver Gate, the bane of high cost characters everywhere, turns off your opponents’ Stygian Eyes, Festivals, and Bound and Gagged and still allows you access to your own support. His icons aren’t fantastic, but he has investigation, which is a plus, and he is resilient and thus kinda hard to deal with. The only real downsides are his cost and the fact that he is villainous, but both of those can be circumvented by proper deck construction.
Danigral - 4/5 - I really like this idea because it simultaneously plays into Agency strengths but in counter-thematic ways. Agency is “the support faction” having a lot of attachments and ways to manipulate them...also locations. This guy turns that on his head, making you want to run almost no critical supports, or at most 1 critical support (not counting those that are immune like San Marco). Also, since he’s villainous he doesn’t want to go in the same deck as a few of Agency’s most popular characters. This will really impact the meta because you won’t want to run a ton of supports.
dboeren - 4/5 - The timing can get a little odd sometimes, but it’s a very solid card and fits right into Agency’s new “no shenanigans” theme. Shuts down all sorts of problems. However, Villainous can be a minor issue for some Agency decks so watch out for that...
Kamacausey - 5/5 - This was the one card that I saw when I first looked through the set initially that I was like OMG when I first read it. This card seems to me like it could have the most effect on the meta. Any card that can turn off plague stone, khopesh, festival, rite of the silver gate, stygian eye, etc... is definitely worth taking a look at and very powerful. The only way to get rid of him is through event card removal and even then he is resilient so it will only prolong him from making a return the following turn.
mnBroncos - 4/5- 4 cost, Villainous, and you're limiting your own support cards is all negatives to this card. However, this card is amazing. One of the strongest cards for sure in the box but it isn’t an auto-include by any means in many Agency decks.
Reckoner - 4/5 - This guy is amazing. He single handedly stops so many decks in their tracks that it is hard not to give him a 5; however, he does cost 4 and the Villainous trait which clashes with all of Agency’s Heroic guys keep him from getting top marks.
