“The Tribes They are a Changelin”
Come gather ’round tribes
Wherever you roam
And admit that the power creep
Around you has grown
And accept it that soon
You’ll be damaged to none
If your life to you is worth savin’
Then you better start blockin’ or you’ll die like a chump
For the tribes they are a-changelin’
Come warriors, angels
Please heed the company’s call
Don’t stand on the battlefield
Don’t block into open mana
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has been 2 for 1’d
There’s a battle on the table and it is ragin’
It’ll soon fill the playmat and rattle your walls
For the tribes they are a-changelin’
- Goblin NaBob Dylan
We've talked about the tribes of Pioneer before but Kaldheim has brought so many new tribal cards into the format that we thought it would be worth updating old strategies, giving a second look to tribes we passed over before due to a lack of cards, and also evaluating the power level of the tribal cards of the new set. The introduction of the Changeling ability brings new possibilities to the tribal decks of Pioneer, and we discuss a few places where those types of cards might fit in. We also cover the major tribal "Lords" of Pioneer and the narrow "buffs" that make your tribal cards stronger.
By the time you listen to this week's podcast the full spoiler list will probably already be out, but before you start brewing up a storm be sure to listen to what we have to say about all of these new tribal cards to save you time in evaluating them and also to give you a few ideas for the starting points of your decks. There was so much to talk about that we didn't have time to cover everything tribal related, so if you have any other ideas or cards you'd like to suggest be sure to let us know on Twitter or on Discord!
