This Week's Chaotic® Card Tips

Antideaon - Antideaon is one of the rarest OverWorld™ Creatures, so consider yourself a lucky Chaotic player is you have one of these promo-giveaways in your collection! This Scout is one of the highest Speed Creatures in the OverWorld; he also starts the game with two Mugic counters. Use him as a support Creature in a Speed-based deck along with Attacat, Frafdo, the Hero and Gespedan. Make sure you fill up your Attack Deck with strong Speed Test Attacks – Progressive Speed, Frost Blight, Scout's Strike and Poison Sphere are all excellent choices.



Mandiblor Crown – The Danian™ Tribe’s motto could well be “More Mandiblors, Please.” Danian decks often need to max out the number of Mandiblors they play so as to max out the bonuses they gain from cards like Nimmei and Purge Dirge. However, not every awesome Danian Creature is a Mandiblor—someone has to be in charge! This is where Mandiblor Crown shines. Equip it to Nimmei, Necrabe or Lore and those Creatures will both count as Mandiblors and gain a small Energy boost when you activate Hive. Remember, though, if you equip Mandiblor Crown to a Creature that is already a Mandiblor, it won’t count as two Mandiblors. Combine this Battlegear with Infection cards and you can push your Mandiblor count through the roof!



Purge Dirge – There are certain Creatures that need to be taken down at any cost. When your Danian™ deck is facing down Lord Van Bloot™, Fraffdo, the Hero or an opposing Illexia, the Danian Queen, it is time to pull out your most powerful damage dealer – Purge Dirge! This three Mugic™ counter cost card deals 5 damage for each Mandiblor you control, then forces you to un-infect all Creatures. If you only play a deck with six Mandiblors, it will do 30 damage—impressive, but expensive. However, if you use Kalanju, Necrabe and Tabaal to Infect many opposing Creatures, you can easily control 10 Mandiblors – that’s 50 damage from Purge Dirge. If you add Illexia, the Danian Queen to your deck, you can push that damage even higher. Here’s a challenge: what’s the most damage you can deal with Purge Dirge?
