    Yes, we have a new keyword!

    Meek (this ally can't attack heroes).

    Expect to see it elsewhere in Lost Lands and beyond!

    This is a whole different thing. Still figuring out the card, can't place it just yet, but I can tell I like the art.
    I wanted an image as a signature and all I got was text.

    This is amazing! I love it! Wish the ability was activated for less!

    Definitely a card worth a write up at some point. He's a potent 2 drop, but that ability wont be very useful early game. However late game....that would be where the magic can happen

    Ability seems so expensive and bad tbh. It isn even readied on your turn. But maybe I am just missing some combos

    Edit: oh it returns opposing allies. That's cool

    Yeah, yours or your opponent's. Just any other ally.

    As a question though on the Meek keyword, how would that interact with Mind Control? Would you still be able to target the ally and have it killed, just not attack the hero, sorta like if you MC one of Moonstalker's allies while MS has stealthed?

    Ok ok, I've re read the ability a few times and think I've cone to a realization. The exact wording says "when target other ally is killed...". It should be noted that it does not specify a turn, which means that this as long as kiruth stays on the board, that ally becomes yours when it dies. Also note that there is not a limit to how many times this ability can be activated. moreover, there is no recource limit on what you can target. And on a final note, there are no specifications that this needs to be in an undead based deck; it can go in any deck.

    So all in all, with this ability, if you can kill it you can keep it. After discerning all this, i think that Its ability cost is probably pretty balanced.

    Some notable places i think this guy is useful:
    Moonstalker. Keeping this ally alive is going to be necessary if you're going to take allies. Who better than moonstalker? Plus with the cheapest ally removal in the game, as well as jewlers dream, it makes him a pretty good choice.

    Baduruu. Being able to call out a weapon quickly for free makes him a good candidate for killing things. With bone saber, you can kill off big allies fairly easily

    Good combo:
    With thadeus vault in play, and kiruth devotee in graveyard...play necro shroud, summon kiruth, activate location, activate kiruths ability on enemy ally, kill that ally. If you have 5 recources when doing this, I'd suggest spitfire hound to destroy necro shroud and deal damage to that ally. (With ability damage from spitfire+attack from kiruth, up to 4hp allies can be killed this way)

    There seems to be a lot more combos as well, but i think this will suffice for now

    I think Meek is nice idea ability.
    If successful adjustment , High Beat deck will be easier to build.
    Low beat deck is too much.

    There is no duration, so I understand it as: pay 3cc and target any other ally, when this ally will be killed (even after 4 turns) it goes to your side" ...
    Question is if Kiruth Devotee needs to be in play.

    I think I donīt understand how will that ability works...

    Sweet art. Very confused about how ability works, if it stays in effect when this little guy leaves the board
