nyxnyxnyx - 2/5
Remember when I mentioned more-honor-matters? This is the worst card of the lot. Incredibly difficult requirement to clear, mediocre reward for doing so. Don’t play this. I gave it 1 point more than it deserves for the edge case where you’re playing a deck that just wants small Bushis and Beiona and For Greater Glory, which is not terrible I guess.
 
Kingsley - 2/5
I'm not fond of this card. While having a 1/1 that stays in play forever is solid and you can potentially combine that with honor or a positive attachment to get an enduring attacker, having to have five more honor than an opponent is quite difficult.
 
Benjoewoo – 3/5
This guy is basically a 2/1 on attack, and has the potential to draw fire because he’s like having an extra imperial favor if his ability is turned on.
 
I Fight Dragons – 2/5
I think the way Lion wants to play is to stay just above their opponent in honor such as to not fall behind in terms of card advantage. Unfortunately, to trigger this guys reaction, I find that I generally have to sacrifice too much for it to be worth it. When you consider the average game to be around 5 turns, the only way this guy gets to crazy levels of value is if you see him turn 1 and you reach the 5 honor differential. It’s just not worth the effort.
 
Grendel – 2/5
1 stat isn’t very valuable. The ability isn’t worth aiming for. I’d rather take Seppun.
