Ah jeez, I forgot he gets more tokens for being power 4+. Good catch.

Because of the nontoken clause, the others won't trigger (just want to make sure we aren't expecting the original to trigger at all here) but the first sentence is important: each Anax refers only to itself dying for the "Whenever Anax dies" clause.
Ok, so the proper name "Anax" has no bearing on how they proc. Got it.WizardMN wrote: ↑3 years agoYou will end up with 4 tokens: two each from the dying Anax's that trigger themselves. They will not trigger each other since they are tokens.
However, if you kill the original and a token, you get 8 tokens: 2 from the token's trigger for itself when it dies and 2 from each Anax when the original dies (since that isn't a token, all 3 trigger).
I looked at Rage Forger for v2.0, but the issue is that even with a reasonably high storm count the non evasive bodies (quasi evasive i guess) aren't exciting, no matter how big. That said, I think you're right that it's an upgrade over Hellrider. The question is whether it's better than any other potential inclusions (aside from obvious ones outside of my budget a la Dockside Extortionist and Terror of the Peaks). I'll consider it, but at the moment I'm looking at Breya's Apprentice, Harmonic Prodigy, and Dragon's Rage Channeler which all seem more exciting.Robobro72 wrote: ↑3 years agoHad an idea for an include that has a hilariously high ceiling with Harmonic Prodigy. Rage Forger functions somewhat similarly to Hellrider that, while having less utility on a normal, non- combo combat than the Devil, creates larger bodies on a combo attack, costs 1 less mana, and provides a somewhat similar amount of noncombat damage as rider (again assuming they are the rionya target) if I'm reading things correctly.
