Kassai<\/h2>\r\n

Kassai<\/a><\/span><\/span> has returned with a raise and a larger portfolio. She’s using the Deathmatch Arena to grind experience and fill her coffers.<\/p>\r\n

Kassai, Cintari Sellsword<\/a><\/span><\/span> from Crucible of War<\/em> achieved Living Legend in 2023. How will this iteration of Rathe’s favorite budding warlord fare in the arena?<\/p>\r\n

Hero Ability and General Strategy<\/h3>\r\n

Like all Warriors, Kassai thrives with the Agility<\/a><\/span><\/span> token. Plus, when she draws a card on her turn, her sword attacks cost one fewer resource for the turn, so stacking up Gold<\/a><\/span><\/span> tokens improves her efficiency and pays the wages of her ever-growing army.<\/p>\r\n

Raise an Army<\/a><\/span><\/span>, Kassai’s newest specialization, allows her to pay the going rate for the sandy fighters-for-hire, Cintari Sellsword<\/a><\/span><\/span>s. These mercenaries will only add their sword to the fit if Kassai makes the first move, so gaining go again off her weapon attacks is crucial to her strategy.<\/p>\r\n

In constructed play, Kassai will have access to plenty of cards to give her first sword attack go again.<\/p>\r\n
