Is Saheeli going to be offered for crystals?

@zaann85

she isn’t really that good.

@Mainloop25

Really? Just about every Saheeli deck I have come across has been a relatively tough battle.

@qwweetrtr

Yea, I don’t get the “she isn’t good” talk. Red you get Olivia. Red you get summoning the devils. Her first ability nets you creatures also for cheap (granted with her 6 becoming 9 cost for the ability not as fast but still) and that’s a while being able to lock the opponent’s board with Claustaphobia and taking their two other slots. Forget her two other abilities.

Reverse psychology. It’s the only explanation.

Anyways, I don’t have Saheeli, and I don’t have Sphynx of the Final Word, but I’d imagine combining hexproof with Olivia and friends would probably be the most broken combo in existence.

She is actually quite popular according to the recent survey. I’m looking forward to getting her, personally.

Same here. What I’m not looking forward to is leveling C2 up just in case she’s like Delvin and she gets to be a locked PW at the next Inventor’s Fair event but that’s besides the point.

The point is I’m wandering how “early” is early 2017…

Adding her to the vault will annoy everyone who put a lot of effort into acquiring her “exclusively”. They kind of half broke that promise already when they ran the event again (not that I’m complaining
), I wasn’t expecting them to break it completely.

Why would we be annoyed? She wasn’t going to be exclusive forever. The only thing they said was that she was “not going to be for purchase in the near future.” Since that was September, and we’ve seen multiple expansions since then, I think they held up that end of the deal.

Ok well if what they said included “in the near future” that’s fine. Sounds like everyone will have her before I get around to levelling her up lol

Two planeswalkers are scheduled to leave the vault this week and only one shows slated for entry. My hope is they’ll surprise us by adding Saheeli too.

[qwweetrtr]

I am both for and against that. For because…with the events you could get the gems enough to buy the PW but against because without showing it in advance people would HAVE to truly save from all the events in a rush if it’s just pressed out of nowhere. If they literally just bought a BB right before and didn’t have the time to get all the crystals in time before she transferred back out? There would be backlash.

They updated; it’s Kiora.

[qwweetrtr]

Thanks. I meant in general though if at any time she wasn’t in the “PW next to rotate in” spot and it was just a surprise. Also, never gets old for me to say your site is amazing. But, that’s besides the point.

But that’s the whole point of their system. It’s a marketing ploy. The reason they don’t tell you when planeswalkers are appearing is to motivate you to spend cash on crystals to acquire them. They know that most people will run out of patience and spend their crystals. That’s what they’re counting on. Lack of scheduling/announcing means that you’re more likely to react impulsively.

For example, Ob hasn’t been in the vault since September. If he appears next week, and someone who’s waited this long doesn’t have enough crystals, he’s going to be motivated to spend rather than potentially waiting another four months.

Same with Saheeli, except tenfold.

[qwweetrtr]

True, I hope not though.

[wereotter]

I’ve been hoarding crystals just in case. Guess I’ll keep that up for whenever that day comes.

I would agree that it would be nice to know in advance, but as was stated impulse buying would leave me unsurprised if it was added unannounced. She’s probably not going in now so they can require Chandra for the next Inventor’s Fair.

[Mainloop25]

Well they should up the drop rates, because at the moment a lot of us have started saving crystals instead of spending and getting disappointed after buying a Big Box yet again.

[qwweetrtr]

I usually save 1000 just in case and spend over it like once I have 1600 I get a BB just in case but with the cycle in/out I had to try my best to get U Hydra…didn’t get it but not the point. The point is usually I always have enough just in case, that just should have to be.
