[Pod 0] Ozuul (Eldrazi Ruiner) - Playtesting

[NecroBlade]

Good call on the name swap @Maklar the Silver Prince ! OP updated.

As for placing figures: Ozuul's owner chooses the order. We can add an R&C on that at some point.

I didn't think Ozuul was particularly powerful when I tested him. The issue seems that Ozuul can so easily alter the landscape of the battle, but he doesn't fit super well with other units which would take advantage of the altered landscape if Ozuul's offensive output peeters out. I'd like to try him with the Cathar. Moving figures around is such a powerful ability that warrants a high price point, but it seems like it's just a bit too difficult to capitalize upon with this design.

The design just didn't seem like it was as compelling as it should have been. The mechanic of moving figures adjacent to him can be a little clumsy when you opponent uses it to reposition their figures to height or into a more advantageous configuration. Also, it just seems a bit weak that Ozuul fits so nicely as an "Outsider" but isn't one. I obviously understand the limitations there. Design just seems like it's not where it should be, to me. Hope my ramblings are helpful. If I can help let me know!

Painting my Ozuul right now, going to try to keep it as purple as possible.
