Darkclaw=overpowered

[Douche Canoe]

When you play against a Darkclaw ally-less deck, there's no way you can win. When what big teeth, speed strike, lone wolf are used amongst other cards that will kill your allies or turn them against you, there is no stopping him. Also with continued use of shadow font, he keeps regenerating his shadow energy and will never be hurt. The other wulven hero, can't remember his name right now, has a power up that only stops the opposing team from hurting his team that round. When the team is only Darkclaw and his ridiculous power ups, his ability is the same as the other wulven hero except he can also not be hurt when allies or heroes defend his attacks, and his attacks get +2. This doesn't make much sense... I propose that you do at least one of the following things to make Darkclaw less powerful: Raise the cost of his ability, lower his health, put a durability count on "what big teeth," or just change his ability to something less ridiculous. Honestly, it's not fun to play Darkclaw when people know how to exploit his absurdity.

Even your fantastic fucking name couldn't motivate me to read that textNebraska

The secret to beating Darkclaw is to build up an army while hes spamming his ability and then use item destruction, like Shriek of Vengeance, to destroy his full moon/rain delay. Typically, you only need to hit Darkclaw really hard all at once to defeat him.

There are ways to win, so saying 'there is no way you can win' is incorrect.

With some heroes it's virtually impossible yes, but you CAN tune decks to beat him.

If you want a deck especially for him focus on these things: Use armor to stall his damage. Use Good Ascendant to keep your allies alive and kill those Evil Ascendants, and build a board presence. Once you have enough allies to kill him in one or two turns, use Shriek of Vengeance or Misplaced to remove his protection for a turn and hit him hard.

The theory of memetics holds that humans have evolved in a peculiar way more as hosts for memes than anything else. How else that we would die for a cause or construct huge monuments to dead kings or invent flying machines?

I think Drakkon might just provide the proof.

As you showed that strategy can work, but really only if the DC player isn't using Evil Ascendant (which every DC should run -- watching your game should prove that ti them). Great job using Lance tho, cool to see under-used heroes in action!

Very true, although if he had used it I had a stop thief waiting to take it away
