A majical Selection...

It's been a while since the last Campaign Promo card article, so let's break down 2 of the new archetypal pieces to build into and around with support for the Majik Mask archetype, and a new cycle to go with an older piece with the Majik Moonlight Dances!

Majik Mask Minion

Warrior - 1 ATK

(Disguise) - (When this Warrior enters play, you can pay (Consume 5), then if you do, search your deck for a "Majik Mask", and equip it to a Warrior on the field.)

(Perish) - "Target 1 Majik Mask" in your discard pile, and equip it to a Warrior on the field."

Majik Mask - Faceless Smiles

Unified - ARM

Target 1 Warrior on the field, and equip this card to the targeted Warrior. (Bestow) +3 ATK to the equipped Warrior.

The player that controls a Warrior equipped with "Majik Mask - Faceless Smiles" gains the following effect:

The owner of the equipped Warrior must pay (Consume 10) during each of their Reinforce Phases.

If this card is in your discard pile, you can pay (Consume 10) and eradicate this card face-up, then if you do, Revive 1 "Majik Mask" Warrior from your discard pile to your side of the field.

Fans of the Majik Mask archetype can rejoice, with new support for the archetype. Majik Mask - Faceless Smiles offers another taxing effect, similar to Majik Mask - Three Eyes Dark, hitting Consume rather than Bloodbourne. Additionally, Faceless Smiles offers an in-discard ability too, letting you revive your Majik Mask Warriors. This includes Majik Mask Merchant to push in more burn damage, as well as the brand new Majik Mask Warrior, Majik Mask Minion.

Majik Mask Minion itself is a great way to get more continual value out of your Masks. Whilst Majik Mask - Fang Face and Majik Mask - Sad Gold can both be slow to use as Fortified Armaments, Minion gives you 2 ways to attach those Armaments on your turn, to better abuse their affects.

The combination of Minion and Faceless Smile's in-discard ability really help to make the Majik Mask archetype significantly more proactive, and able to use the solid removal/taxing abilities of Sad Gold and Fang Face more frequently.

Whilst this may not push the deck to the top of the tier list, it certainly gives the package a little more juice and proactive play.

Majik Moonlight Sonata

Fortified

(Consume 5)

If the (Consume) cost of this card is reduced by the effect of a "Majik Moonlight" card, you can double the following effect:

Search your deck for 2 "Majik Moonlight" Fortified cards, and set them face-down onto your side of the field. (They can be activated this turn.)

If this card is in your discard pile, you can eradicate this card from your discard pile face-up, then if you do, for the remainder of the turn, all other "Majik Moonlight" cards cannot be negated.

Majik Moonlight Bolero

Fortified

(Consume 10)

Conscript up to 3 Bounty Warriors from your hand. If the (Consume) cost of this card was reduced by the effect of a "Majik Moonlight" card, you can also Revive up to 2 Bounty Warriors from your discard pile to your side of the field.

If this card is in your discard pile, you can eradicate this card face-up, then if you do, target 1 "Majik Moonlight" Fortified card in your discard pile, and set the targeted card face-down onto your sie of the field. (It can be activated this turn)

Majik Moonlight Waltz

Fortified - ACT

Static: Each time an opponent's Warrior Keyword Ability is attempting to activate, you can reveal the top card of your deck. If the revealed card is a Warrior, negate the Keyword Ability. Then place the revealed card on the bottom of your deck.

Once per turn: You can destroy 1 face-down Fortified card on your side of the field, then if you do, reduce the next (Consume) cost of a "Majik Moonlight" card effect you activate this turn by 10.

The Majik Moonlight package offers a fun series of dances, letting you shuffle around your backline with the various Dances rewarding and building off of one another. Majik Moonlight Sonata is exclusively a synergy piece for the Moonlight backline, letting you chain into more different Dances, protecting them, and getting stronger if it's cost has been reduced by another Majik Moonlight card.

Majik Moonlight Bolero gets a little more interesting, giving you a way to Conscript a chunk of Bounty Warriors from your hand, regardless of if you're running the full package. Whilst there aren't too many Bounty Warriors to make this an appealing inclusion without the rest of the Dances, it's something to note for the future.

Majik Moonlight Waltz is likely the most interesting piece outside of a pure Moonlight build, conditionally turning off negates in a Warrior heavy build, or in one with the ability to manipulate top-decks. Blastforge Aggro may be able to make use of this with enough Warriors to let this act as a Void Collapse somewhat often, and one that hits Perish abilities too.

Ultimately, the Majik Moonlight package likely remains an option for the Brewers for the time being, but with more support and payoffs for the archetype, some super cool builds could develop.

There's still a few more Campaign Cards to catch up on soon, when we dive into the new pieces for the Freakshow Archetype!
