RISE OF THE FLOODBORN REVEAL: FLYNN RIDER – ZIJN EIGEN GROOTSTE FAN - The Great Illuminary

RISE OF THE FLOODBORN REVEAL: FLYNN RIDER – HIS OWN BIGGEST FAN

RISE OF THE FLOODBORN REVEAL: FLYNN RIDER – HIS OWN BIGGEST FAN

Welcome everyone! TGI-NL here to introduce the latest Rise of the Floodborn map reveal!

We're excited to reveal a Floodborn version of one of our favorite Disney characters, Flynn Rider from Tangled! While we may be big fans, of course no one admires him more than Flynn Rider – His Own Biggest Fan. Let's see!

Flynn Rider – his own biggest fan

Flynn Rider – His Own Biggest Fan Flynn Rider – His Own Biggest Fan is a rare character with a cost of 4, classified as Floodborn, Hero, and Prince. We can't ink it. He has 2 Strength and 3 Willpower, and can seek out 4 Knowledge (sort of... we'll get to this). Being Floodborn, he has Shift (in his case Shift 2), which allows you to pay 2 ink to play him on top of another character called Flynn Rider. He also has Evasive and an ability called One Last, Big Score, which reads: "This character gains -1 Lore for each card in your opponent's hands." His beautiful grin was illustrated by Elisabetta Meleranci and Leonardo Giammichele.

Rather than being a brave, notorious criminal, this Floodborn Flynn is portrayed as a more skilled and stealthy type. Don't forget that the ink flood can enhance a character's specific qualities or talents, and that could mean turning a charming rogue into a master thief!

While Flynn Rider – His Own Biggest Fan can potentially search for four lores, that number decreases with each card in your opponent's hands. If you want to get the most out of this guy, you need to play effects that cause your opponents to discard cards.

Bucky – Squirrel Peep Teacher / Belle – Hidden Archer / Cogsworth – Grandfather Clock

Bucky – Squirrel Squeak Tutor plays on this strategy by having an opponent choose and discard a card when you play a Floodborn character. Belle – Hidden Archer is a good choice to activate this ability. While her ability to force your opponent to throw away his hand when one of his characters challenges her is powerful in itself, the fact that Flynn Rider is waiting in the wings to look for your opponent's hand to empty makes for a powerful combo. Keep Cogsworth – Grandfather Clock on hand to protect these fairly low Willpower characters from damage, and you'll have another Floodborn to activate for Bucky's abilities!

Rafiki – mysterious sage and Maui – hero for everyone

Eagle-eyed Illumineers have noticed that the artwork for Flynn Rider – Confident Vagabond features posters of both Flynn Rider – His Own Biggest Fan and Flynn Rider – Charming Rogue. It's funny to think of all these Flynn Rider glowers getting into trouble all over Lorcana. There are many more Easter eggs and bits of story hidden in the cards. We hope you find them all!

Will you be trying out a discard pile when Rise of the Floodborn arrives? Now that we talked about the combination with Sapphire, are there other ink colors that you are more interested in? Make sure you follow @tgi_nl on all social media and let us know what type of deck you plan to make for Flynn Rider – His Own Biggest Fan!

Tomorrow, TGI-NL will introduce a card that... wait, where did that go? It has to be here somewhere. . . TGI-NL! Stop playing and help me find it!

Until next time, Illumineers!
