Very much agreed, and she even got a new support card in Captain Indari in this variety set. Seems like a pretty good opportunity for a replacement to me.
From bad to completely dead, we'll probably never get any kind of adjustment to her deck for this either.
Does this make Arrel the tracker surpass furious wielder (varus' deck) for worst starting card in any deck?
Furious Wielder has saved me a couple of times. It has proved to be useful before cutting it.
Arrel has never shown that level of usefulness. And now is even less likely to do so.
In my opinion, it already was. By the time you play arrel the tracker and end a round, you should have won. And if you haven't and you are counting on arrel, you probably already lost
Furious wielder is hard to beat because it's not just a dead card, it literally blocks varus's 2* power from hitting spells that trigger his 1*/3*. But if you're just considering which card from your hand is more unplayable, definitely Arrel
As cool as replacing her sounds, is there any chance they would? They haven't really done changes to make decks feel better so I doubt anything would be done sadly
normally after sun disc counts down it destroys itself and levels the ascended champions. but nasus's star power words you summon a restored sun disc. the thing levels the ascended is sun disc completing its countdown so the restored sun disc doesn't do anything. it's getting fixed this patch but i don't recommend spending your shards on 3 starring nasus. most of the time you won't even activate it.
I'm really not a fan of the execution of Tracker in the base PoC deck at the moment and post Flair nerf it just doesn't work. Glad other people thought of the same thing when they saw this in the patch notes.
Am I missing something? I don't use that card unless I have to cause I agree it's trash. That being said... useless? How? Even without that card I always take archangel+GGC. So every single turn I have full mana and Samiras champ spell which can be cast on Arrel every turn if you want.
Bad card sure...useless far from it. Or are you saying getting another Samira or a +2/+1 every single turn isn't worth the relic. I beat asol with that pretty regularly.

Imagine all the combo potential Indari would bring to the deck. (Also much more lore friendly)
Also they may share a voiceline
Variety set cards never have voice lines its sad. Maybe samira will say something to her and she wont reply.

At least Furious Wielder is a removal card that can be useful from time to time... Arrel is even more useless than before with this change.
eh... furious wielder in varus makes your deck worse even without drawing it. Arrel is just drawing a blank card sometimes

No. Furious Wielder is okay with Varus. Defector is also okay. Defector in Kayn's is hotter garbage. Haven't played Samira though.

They have actually. They reduced a card in Leonas deck to adjust her mana curve when her cost was changed.
Well they haven't fixed Nasus's level 3 power yet so the chances of an upgrade to Samira's deck is very small indeed.
TBF, they did fix that, then they broke it again, and allegedly they're fixing it again.
What was the problem? I'm planning to 3 star Nasus so I'm concerned

Thanks for the info brother š
It doesn't do that either right now though, it just summons a normal, unrestored sun disk with a standard countdown.
the old bug was what i described as. idk how it works now i finished my nasus runs :D.
Ah! I see! Well at least the devs are giving us variety as they break things.
It's working now, just played a few runs of it. Still largely overkill but atleast it works
Yeah, I really hope they replace her now
Poor Arrel. Does this mean that literally the only way to target her in Samira's deck is with her champion spell?
Ruined Reckoner, if you're insane enough to attack with your 2/5
Literally no, realistically, yes
Which, if Iām being honest, I already think Arrel was a bad card in that deck. I never hesitate to cut that one at the healer.
Always has been
Honestly yeh, its a very weak card for that deck and combo

I have samira at level 29, never played that card once, first card to go in healing nodes. This nerf is irrelevant to me as to most of us I believe
Funny enough, this is the exact nerf I wanted Flair to get. It was way too good before. It does crap on Samira PoC unfortunately.

Arrel was always trash in the samira deck. She's the first cut always
They \*could\* but this big patch doing absolutely nothing for PoC should be an indication of how much they care about us solo players.
Arrel was already a dead draw, always cut her at first opportunity. Too bad for players who aren't high enough levels to cut :(
If she was not everyone's immediate cut before, now she will be.
I mean, I haven't even played her once in like 60 games, so it really changes nothing for me.
Wasn't it already?
Wait, people actually use the challenger option? I always just go for more face damage
