nyxnyxnyx - 4/5
A rather niche anti-bow card that has a lot of targets in the current environment. LPB, For Shame! In almost every deck, Water ring in some games, Crane SH, Niten Adept, the list goes on. Not the most exciting of cards but it does its job.
 
Kingsley - 5/5
Bow is the best form of control that's widely available right now, so this counters all kinds of nasty effects. One influence means that any deck splashing Lion probably wants to throw two or three of these in, as they are cheap and effective counters to some of the most impactful effects in the game.
 
Benjoewoo – 5/5
This card is always relevant because Ring of Water exists, and will get better as clans play more bow effects. You’re probably splashing lion primarily for this.
 
I Fight Dragons – 5/5
There will always be a bow effect in the game thanks to the water ring, so this card is never truly dead. Some match-ups it will do less than others, but bow is such a powerful effect that I see no reason not to run this card in order to prevent it from destroying your turn.
 
Grendel – 5/5
Lion rides or dies on the pressure it puts on an opponent. Being immune to bow is great tech. Baiting your opponent into water rings is next level.

For me, one of the main reasons to Splash Lion

The more I play this, the more I like it. The meta, with For Shame making every Courtier deck and Mirumoto's Fury being present in something like a third of decks (in my experience) make it very easy to see play, and when it is player it is almost always a big shift in the turn's balance of power.
