nyxnyxnyx - 2/5
It’s kind of like Good Omen, but with a different requirement, and slightly worse (loss of Honor status). If target-discard that worked on Honored characters was more common, this would have perhaps seen play. As it is, being Honored actually confers immunity to stuff like I Can Swim and Noble Sacrifice, so Stand Your Ground is almost always just going to only protect from the tax man in the Fate phase, which Good Omen likely does better.
 
Kingsley - 3/5
This card is quite strong, but difficult to enable. Since many kill effects require the target to be dishonored, this is most playable as a way to keep your guy in play once out of fate. If you can honor a cheap character, this also makes a fantastic Assassination counter - the problem being that honor effects are usually better reserved for bigger targets. Still a strong card for the future though, and quite good with Honored General and Venerable Historian.
 
Benjoewoo – 3/5
This is good for clans that can honor their characters often. Lion can do that, but funnily it’s probably just as efficient in Crane.
 
I Fight Dragons – 3/5
This card is a pocket fate if you have an honored character. Luckily, Lion have a bunch of characters this tends to work well with: Honored General, Venerable Historian, and Akodo Gunso all honor themselves; and if you have this card in hand, you can typically push for a fire ring to keep a key character in play for another turn. Solid, but perhaps won’t be in decks for much longer past the core set.
 
Grendel - 3/5
I strongly recommend people trying this out in Crane. If Lion gets more ways to honor good characters this becomes a mainstay in Lion.
