Reminded today that even years later I still count this guy as one of the best cards in the game.
He is just so good.
He can scout ahead to let you know what you'll see next turn (or the first card anyway) or you can hold him back to find out what a shadow card will be. And that's before you talk about all the effects he can help with.
See something you don't like on the top of the deck--Ravens of the Mountain shuffles it away and still shows you what the top card is (and gives you some progress). Or if it's really bad Out of the Wild straight up removes it. Want to reduce threat to help pay for that Out of the Wild? This helps Needful to Know too. And don't forget Expecting Mischief to throw some cheap damage out there.
And if your playing traps then you can know when to drop that Ranger Spikes, Poisoned Stakes or Ambush.
Just..so, so good.
This guy is ridiculous. Played Into the Pit for the first time today with a Dwarf deck consisting of cards from Core + Mirkwood + Khazad-dum (no Dwarrowdelf yet). I was able to play him the first turn and he proceeded to map out the entire game out for me. This guy is total clutch. So cheap also. Basically an automatic 3x for me in solo games if I'm using Lore.
I really like him in solo, especially at 1 cost, even just for the stats. I like this art style also.
