'''Dis'''- One of the most powerful cards in the set is [[Exhume]], providing great utility along with an Aember pip. [[Banish]] Was not very good when the set was released, but with Exalt and Upgrades running rampant in both WC and MM, it can be quite powerful. Lastly, while mostly a gimmick, [[Tezmal]] can produce a full lockout if two of them are joined by [[Rocket Boots]]. It is also worth mentioning [[Gold Key Imp]] can produce game states where niether player can win before time runs out, if both players have an abundance of Aember, niether can afford to kill it if they don't have a key cheat.<br /> | '''Dis'''- One of the most powerful cards in the set is [[Exhume]], providing great utility along with an Aember pip.

'''Logos''' - In this set Logos takes deck cycling and archiving to new levels with [[Eyegor]], [[Archimedes]], [[Eureka!]], [[Titan Librarian]], [[Z.Y.X Researcher]], [[Director of Z.Y.X]] and some others, but more importantly to take heed is the [[Binate Rupture]] + [[Interdimensional Graft]] combo, (abbreviated BRIG). Never let a [[Professor Sutterkin]] live. [[Cutthroat Research]] and [[Interdimensional Graft]] are the only Aember control in Logos and cannot take an opponent off check. <br /> | '''Logos''' - In this set Logos takes deck cycling and archiving to new levels with [[Eyegor]], [[Archimedes]], [[Eureka!]], [[Titan Librarian]], [[Z.Y.X.

'''Untamed''' - In this set Untamed struggles to find it's identity with Aember burst being hard to come by and large creatures with +1 power counters don't provide sufficient utility. The three cards introduced in this set to be aware of is [[Duskwitch]], [[Soldiers to Flowers]] and [[Dharna]]. Though [[Glimmer]] can produce a soft lock that is quite hard to disrupt if paired with [[Nature’s Call]]. Possibly the most egregious card in keyforge is [[Heart of the Forest]] a basis of a deck archetype that attempts to spend a lot of time setting up two key forges in one turn. <br /> | '''Untamed''' - In this set Untamed struggles to find it's identity with Aember burst being hard to come by and large creatures with +1 power counters don't provide sufficient utility.
