Holy $#!*

I really don’t like Graccus for the simple reason that he beats me and it takes forever.

To beat a (good) Graccus deck, you need to constantly destroy or exhaust his armor and weapons while also stopping your opponent from using abilities.  Oh yeah, and make sure his allies don’t hit you when you aren’t looking.

He’s got annoying abilities (when you are on the receiving end), and access to armor and weapons.  Of course, Graccus doesn’t get the benefit of Horde allies.

Are you tired of me saying I like Horde allies better than Alliance?  Graccus is a great example of why.  If you look at the entire list of Horde and Alliance allies and count up how many have healing powers, card drawing, or item destroying… they’re pretty even.  And if you count up the health, attack, and cost of the allies, they’re also pretty even.  But when you look at the cost, attack and health of allies that also have special powers – the Horde has a bit of an advantage.  (Note: this is based on the 600-or-so cards I own and the cards I see in use against me.  I have not actually put all of the cards in a database and performed detailed quantitative analysis)

As I said, I don’t like him, but I have to rate him high because he is effective.

My ratings…

Sealed: 4.00
Constructed: 4.50
Casual: 4.50
Raid: 3.00?

Pleasant days and pleasant nights.
