Grincher is a blast . Ive gotten Wildfire Ankhblast artifact which game me lethal against a pre rework cassyva . The old shadow creep mechanic was a bit different . It was a little harder to generate shaadow tiles , but each tile did damage based on the number of creep you had on board . So if you had 12 creep , everything standing on creep took 12 damage at the end of your turn . Shadow Novaturn a 4 x 4 space into creep was absurdly strong . It would deal 4 damagewhatever creep value you had before . Then it made your next one stronger by 4 . Regardless of how far behind they were shadow creep would almost always end the game if you couldnt kill them before the 2 nd or 3 rd cast . The last few turns were epic . My opponent and I were playing ring around the roseyme chasing her around a square of tiles healing and removing eachothers threats , and I had an Ankh in my hand . I repaced into adamantite claws and did like 12 damage or something like that for lethal . One of my funnest moments .
