Ragnora the Relentless

Description
Bloodbound Spell Propagate Rage: Summon a Ripper Egg nearby your General.

Appeareance
Ragnora is part of the iridium-scaled sentient Lizard race of the Magmari. The ingame art depicts the general with dual-wielded swords that resemble the legendary artifact weapon Morin-Khur from the Shim'zar set. Besides the horned bracelet, kneecaps and head adornements Ragnora has a much leaner and agile posture than the other Magmar Generals. The face is dominated by a wide mouth full of sharp teeth.

Strategies
Ragnora the Relentless was added to the game as a general that supports egg-centric cards of the Magmar faction. Its Bloodbound Spell Propagate Rage summons a Ripper-Egg in a free adjacent space. Synergies with the core set cards Egg Morph and Greater Fortitude allow to play and hatch the egg in the same turn. The 3/1 Celerity, Rebirth "Ripper" minion survives most general counterattacks when buffed to 5/3 which allows to deal at least 10 damage for 6 mana and two cards. This two card combo allows the Ragnora player to close out the magmar value game before the opposing player can swing the game around or win with his own game ending combination. Natural counter to Ragnora's BBS is Cassyva who can remove the eggs as well as unbuffed Rippers with ease by her Bloodbound Spell.

Lore
Ragnora posesses no lore yet. The player base is however split how to address this general since the egg-laying ability makes it hard to attribute a gender. According to the magmar lore all Magmari are male, but this general leaves open some questions.
