Belated Battlepass Review for Season 10
Greetings everyone and welcome to another Gods Unchained post. This week I'm going to talk about the battlepass for season 10, and this time it's actually really well done. This is an excellent battlepass. The aeshteics that are bound to the battlepass are nice and the promos are actually good but not gamebreaking. As per usual the 300 $GODS tier of the battlepass pays back 250 $GODS so it is definitely worth it if you actually plan to play.
The eye candy is good
The eye candy has various emotes that all actually are pretty good. Hurry up and Sammich will be classic I'm sure. An aetheric energy mana wheel is also included along with two aether promos that will be utile in any aether deck one might attempt to design. Aethers were a strong archtype for mage and light in the past and may see further designs in the future. We saw a lot of war aethers printed aswell. This tribal themed battlepass offers a lot of loot that realistically anyone should be interested in aesthetically.
The aesthetics are all good, I'm particularly a fan of the sandwich emote. It can have various meanings but I'm probably just going to use it when I'm going for a sandwich. I could see this emote being toxic, but then again any emote can be toxic. The card back is nice but unremarkable nor unique, traditionally done golden winds on a green background look good but aren't super original.
The Cards are useful but not overpowered
The flame spirit offers fair stats and the potential to obliterate creatures as a neutral card. There are a lot of burn synergies for various gods so this card may see some interesting plays down the line in death and deception (the gods with the most burn). Obliterate is an ability we need more of in GU.
The Grand Aethric itself has good stats and draws a card, this is akin to existing cards like Excavation analyst and etc. that previously added much needed card draw to other tribal archetypes. I see this card getting some use in the future at some point down the line, but not being "so OP" it's required to run the deck. I personally will be trying this with a "complete tribal" of war aethers instead of just going for Ulrika OTK. Might be a fun build that spices up a boring archtype (carvings), I do need more time for experiments after my dailies though. It has gotten rather time consuming and monotonous to play with my "shiney shit deck" for 10 games and then finally playing for real.
Talking Tidbits: A hectic go of it
The past couple months have been a super hectic hellscape for me. A lot has happened and a lot has made my posting/streaming schedule a bit chaotic. I'm back into a good rhythm and able to post and actually interact and engage in the online world the way I need to. I also missed a lot of GU stuff, I didn't enter the League of Dreams, I basically slept through a whole set launching, and to top it all of I basically ghosted a bunch of people I know. Sorry everyone, things have been crazy. I even have people in my real life who are made at me for not getting back in touch with them lol. So don't feel like chopped liver folks.
Thanks for reading, commenting, oogling, hell just not vomiting on this post. I appreciate you all very much and you all are what make it worthy to post here.
