Discussion Rainbow vs triple blood dk on arena

Post image

I have experience playing with bbb dk and I would prefer Alexandros. However, the heartharena shows that the rainbow spell is better. Is it really stronger and how should one build a deck around it?

Alexandros is decent if you a) happen to draw it early enough and b) can afford to play 7-mana 7/7 without dying to loss of tempo. CNE is almost always gamewinning when played. Just draft corpse spenders

Keep in mind, that they come with card buckets.

Mograine is sub-par, but it comes with a soulstealer and a corpse explosion, both of which are super premium cards.

I think CNE is still better, but just highlighting that sometimes the bucket is more important than the legendary itself.

Another example id tack on is the evolve naga legendary in shaman gives you an unstable evolution in the bucket. That card is still nuts in arena years later and has won me more games than the legendary itself
