Savage Swing

Savage Swing was released in 2020 as part of the Welcome to Rathe set, specifically debuting within the Rhinar Hero Deck. Designed as a foundational card for the Brute class, it was crafted to showcase the class's core mechanic of discard-based power, incentivizing players to embrace risk by discarding cards to trigger significant offensive boosts. The card serves as a quintessential example of the mechanical identity established for the Brute hero, Rhinar, who relies on overwhelming force and the synergy between aggression and resource management.

The artwork for Savage Swing is credited to the Legend Story Studios art team, reflecting the visceral and rugged aesthetic of Rathe’s savage landscapes. The design language emphasizes the raw, primal nature of the Brute archetype, utilizing bold colors and dynamic motion to convey the weight and impact of the attack. Upon its release, the card was well-received by the player base as a staple inclusion for budget and starter-level decks, providing a reliable and thematic offensive option that remains a recognizable element of the game's early history.
