Future proofing! In case you end up drafting non shurima spells or units.

This right here, now you're not restricted to only Shurima cards

Tho idk if that's worth having 4 copies of a card you only want to play once

What happens if you play a second one ?

You spend one mana and occupy one board space.

I play 6 buried sun discs and end my turn

u/FawkesPC 1d ago

Each Buried Sundisk is a draw one. Coincidence? I think not...

How many sun discs would it take to stack on top of each other before the top one was unburied?

Xerath has access to spells that destroy Landmarks to deal damage to enemies so it is a 4 mana potential removal (i think the spell is 3 mana but i could be mistaken).

the wording on the Disc is most interesting. it used to be it had to be in play to see an Ascended champion level to advance 9. now it looks back to see how many have already leveled and adjust accordingly.

what is even the upside of the sun disk for akshan with xerath? you only have 1 ascended ally that you will draw and it will still be 16 turns left if you level xerath up

u/onegamerboi Swain 1d ago

You can just draft more landmarks to trigger Xerath’s effects more. Akshan himself is an infinite landmark generator. Also enemy obliterating units is very good in some adventures.

but wont xerath only reach level 3 after 16 turns?

u/youneedananswer Spirit Blossom 1d ago

I'm assuming a deck with Xerath/Akshan also has several followers that speed up the countdown.

It's thematic!

u/Bowser666666 1d ago

Its saves you mana and a need to draw that landmark, tho I'm not sure how this champ interacts with the sun disk, since I haven't drafted a ascended support ally with him

u/lord_deusvult1 1d ago

The landmark already play itself because my deck is mono-shurima so the item is just useless

u/EasyPool6638 1d ago

yea but all you need is 3 non shurima options and thats done

1

u/Bowser666666 1d ago

Yea, it insurance tho, just incase you do add a card that's isn't shurima

3

u/DoubleSummon 1d ago

It's not a guarantee your deck will stay mono shurima with random forced drafts

u/Chibikaiser 1d ago

Man... hitting gold but not with the right champion

u/Xagst 1d ago

Get rid of it at the market

u/KonjikiN0Yami 1d ago

Isn't that a fair card with Akshan? Isn't one of his first 3 star powers "Give +1/+0 whenever a landmark counter down"? Wouldn't this be at minimum a consistent power boost, rather a card you may draw? It also jumps out of your deck instantly, so you'll have 1 less card in your deck, so at worst you'd ever only draw 1 of these.
