A very interesting aspect to look at in terms of
Rescue have 2 unbans and 2 bans.
With
Lea and
Elvira, arguably the best 2* and 3* choices for the clan, it does generate more usage of other 2* and 3* however there is no SoA and SoB that isn't conditional. This could pose a tough decision player wise when deciding to use
Rescue... but it is still
Rescue and the easiest clan to play.
With the unban of
Kerry and
Sledg Rescue will most likely see a boost in usage due to the fact that
Piranas and
Nightmare will have trouble playing against them however making the decks won't be as easy, especially if one of them gets banned.
While I don't use
Rescue very often in
elo, I think it was a good move on the staff's part.
Banning
Draheera was needed but not greatly since
GHEIST is already a bit weak without
Rolph and
Arkn but they are still useable in half decks very nicely.
Spyke being banned is a great thing for players because he was a very hard card to face without playing SoA or protection power. More votes getting
Kalindra out on the weekly bans because of this. It was expected and I don't think anyone is surprised by this change.
Lehane being banned will most likely not have an effect on Sentinel's huge reign in
elo since they still have many good 2* alternatives but it does cripple them a bit.
Overall, I like they changes some surprises some we all knew were coming but it should make
elo a bit more interesting from now on.
