awesome, first

Ok, after reveling in my first and last 'First post', I will post my thoughts. At first glance looks very OP, until you see double damage from spells and split. Surge, zealot, and swarm will be fun to mess with but he is going to be a rune requiring skill i think instead of just straight forward OP like WEG is. A trained monkey could win with a couple of WEG's and some luck. Also, its funny that we are getting spiders. UD/IS spider deck perhaps?

Edit: What does "It counts as 3 champions for purposes of Bulwark, Surge and Zealot" mean exactly? That it has those abilities or that he counts toward that? I would say that we are getting another nifty uberconstruct this expansion which is awesome because constructs need love. Btw greenies, please give all constructs the immunities.

Numerous seems cool, though it would be a far greater disadvantage in any other faction.
