Fanmade expansion: Twin Star Inheritance

#1

Hello, everyone. I made a fanmade expansion and called it Twin Star Inheritance (there is actually a place in the lore called Twin Star), featuring:

  • Two new tribes (that’s why it’s twin star, eheh), Dwarves and Elves. Lyonar, Songhai and Vanar will have Dwarves while Abyssian, Vetruvian, and Magmar will have Elves.
  • 3 new minions per faction (1 common, 1 epic, 1 legendary)
  • 1 new artifact per faction (rare)
  • 2 new spells per faction (1 rare, 1 epic)
  • 6 new Neutral minions (2 commons, 2 rares, 1 epic, 1 legendary)

Here’s it:

Lyonar

First of all, the new keyword Armor(x), (which is a nerfed forcefield) is like Arclyte Regalia, and will prevent x damage the first time damage is taken each turn.

Minions

Spells

Artifact

  • Mithril Towershield

    Note: Equipping 2 of Mithril Towershield makes your artifacts indestructible.
Songhai

Again, a new keyword: Counter(x) increase the damage of the counter-attack by x.

Minions

Vetruvian

Thank you for making this, it was a nice read. I have a few minor complains about not respecting Duelyst tradition in a few areas, but since it is just a fan expansion It is no big deal.

Biggest Balance issues IMO:

Halfling Cannoneer is the card I see the most problems with. Not only is giving a Songhai minion Blast disrespectful to Vetruvian’s faction keyword, It brakes balance considering Songhai has the best tools to abuse it (Jux, MDS, Killing Edge ect.) all on top of a solid body too. The downside isn’t even much of a problem for Songhai given their mobility spells.

Elfic Matriarch is the other card I can’t hep but see as imbalanced here. Giving temporary Blast to one minion would be good if not very strong, but temporarily giving every friendly minion blast is probably too much.

There are other cards that could be very strong or even OP, but in my humble opinion the above two are the worst offenders. Other than that balance looks reasonable.

On the bright side the design of many cards is very good. Siphon Priest is one of my favorites even though I think its practical uses will be limited to Scion’s 3rd Wish + Wind Dervish combo. Ice skating sounds fun in a Resonance Scythe list.

Like vetruvian is disrespectfull towards everybody that relies on a buffed general or slower decks with key-minions that have 3atk+? :confused:

I’m not sure you got my point. I meant that faction keywords (Zeal, Backstab, Grow, Rebirth, Blast, Deathwatch and Infiltrate) should be exclusive to their own faction and a few rare neutrals (Rook and Elkowl).

Kha is no better off than the multitude of other cards/decks that also “disrespect” other playstyles. Not that it justifies him the least.

I appreciate Poop Scepter a lot. That is all.

I really like Desert Retribution. Now players will think twice before standing on Exhuming Sand tiles.
