Trying to figure out what to drop from my deck to put this in.
I'm thinking it has more utility than Squig Bombin, although I love me some Squig Bombin when facing some factions. Tough choices.
And it is not loyal. AM and Chaos get another gift from the Great Mork.
It's essentially loyal since it only targets Ork units, without the benefit of having 2 shields. And I don't know of a reasonable AM or Chaos deck that uses mostly Ork units (like the Shadowsun deck that uses mostly Marines).
Edit: Also, congratulations for posting the first comment on Decree of Ruin.
I agree that it is an Ork card, could be a one of tech card or 2-3 of in an elite build.
Some people win tournaments. Some people log into cardgamedb at just the right time to notice the new cards are up.
In trying to figure out whether this card is better than some of my current cards, I was trying to think through a list of events it could cancel.
Here are some. Add others:
Crushing Blow
Exterminatus
Deception
Doom
Archon's Terror
Squiggify
Warpstorm (attachment and card effect)
Ecstatic Seizures (?)Suppressive Fire
Ecstatic Seizures does not target the unit ["Action: Discard each attachment from each unit at a target planet."] but the attachment, so Lucky Warpaint does not help against that.
Immune to my Archon's Terror. That is not nice.... I think nobody should play this card.
I'm thinking best to slap some Lucky Warpaint on a Goff Nob or Big Shoota Battle Wagon so I can Fall them Back when Klaivex comes in to blast them away after the Archon's Terror fails.
Of course, that's like four cards to counter two:
Goff Nob
Lucky Warpaint
Fall Back
Tellyporta Pad
But you do end up with Goff Nob in your face at planet one, so it might be worth it.
What do you think the Blue trait will do?
Nothing?
Way too much?
Probably just a joke trait.
Indescribable Horror
Searing Brand
Calamity
Cacophonic Choir (?)
Fetid Haze (?)
Power From Pain
Doombolt
Nurgling Bomb
Sowing Chaos
Calculated Strike (if any Ork Limited army units ever come out in the future)
Consumption
Tzeentch's Firestorm
Superiority
I might have missed a few, but that's most of them
Too early to say. I doubt it's a joke trait, but I also doubt that we'll see much use for it this cycle. It's similar to how the Kabalite trait for Dark Eldar units has been useless so far, but will likely be useful when the new warlord is released. Just got to hold out until the future for it I suppose
