Finally, resource acceleration.

Looks like Vs will at last become very interesting.

Given that the Shadowpact will likely have buttloads of Willpower, an GLEE teamup seems quite likely. (GLEES? SPEEGL? I dunno.) Admittedly we're going to have to see their roster first, but from Conjuration and Zatanna alone, I seriously suspect Shadowpact are going to be major players in Silver Age (much in the same way that I suspect JSA won't).

life gain...
G'lock...
Will G'lock make some dark alliances with the boys of shadowpact. Nothing is more amusing then playing a 9 drop on 6 without missing a beat.

Course if you can do that you're gonna win anyway

Asssuming Shadowpact HAS a 9-drop. Printed affiliation, remember.

Shadow Creature is BAck and they have A freind in Shadow Pact who would have thought.

such a nice card. With any luck shadowpact will have some uber broken high drops for us to abuse. Other wise the card is garbage.

not at all. Who said u have to use it on a late turn. U can use it as early as turn 3. Play that 6 drop zatanna turn 5, maybe even turn 4, and use whatever's left of your endurance to draw ur deck

Turn 4, you'd lose 30 life. Leaving you with 20 (at best), and likely 15ish.

Drawing what, 3 new cards and having 2 endurance left? Not such a good plan.

However, just having a 6 drop out early wouldn't be bad.

Especially since your opponent will be doubly terrified - not just by your dropping a big body earlier, but because of Dr. Fate's GIANT CROTCH OF DOOM in the picture.

Conjuration is a nice card, might even be the money rare for the set, as long as there are good drops for the Shadowpact and hopefully endurance gaining effects.

With all those rush decks in constructed, losing 15 endurance might actually end the game for you on turn 3. Then again, we might see some weenie hate in this set to compensate for that.

* - most likely to be turfed for space considerations.

Also, I am hoping there is a Shadowpact plot twist entitled "On The Case!". Or that Detective Chimp's version is "On The Case!" I can hope.

Two of each other 'official' member ... but only one chimp?

Dr. Fate is already on the team ... plus he's getting a JSA version according to the previews.

Perhaps not Dr. Fate, but Nabu himself ... since it was he that finally fixed the Spectre problem ...

If he wasn't already on the JSA, I'd say two versions for the Phantom Stranger. At the very least he needs a mousy version ;)
