| Hi, Persephone's second power "Queen of the underworld" is : "Whenever a unit dies, Persephone's owner draws one card. All other players must discard 1 card." How do they discard a card ? 1. They choose one card from their hand and discard it. 2. They discard 1 card randomly from their hand. 3. They discard the top card of their deck. | |

| With no additional wording, I suppose each player can choose the discarded card (1) | |

She is very powerfull believe me =) and i prefere the slow down power, you can block almost the whole ennemy army with only 1 AoW card or after each persephone activation. If persephone is in the place, don't forget to take units with 2 movement point or more. | |

| Well, I will try her again but I played 2 games this evening with Persephone and I don't really like her in 1v1 game. Discard a choosen card in their hand wasn't a problem for my opponent who had troops or dead medusa activation cards to discard. And Spring Growth is not bad but it doesn't apply when you make a special action... And you have to make special actions if you want to win by absorbing Omphalos. | |

And you have to make special actions if you want to win by absorbing Omphalos. you can apply this "movement slow down power" even if persephone is not activate by using an AoW during your turn. As i said, if your opponent don't have any 2+ movement unit, he will stay in place or run to move 1 aera only. Persephone will use more AoW card if you want to win by omphalos. If you plan to kill, take range unit with persephone and use persephone skill more often with persephone card and AoW too. And kill stuck hero/monster first then finish your opponent with his god. | |

If you want to win by Omphalos, 1 ENTER + 4 ABSORB = 5 turns you can't use his power (or more). - You say "If my opponent don't have any 2+ movement unit, he will stay in place or run to move 1 aera only". But if he is not stupid, he will draft 2+ moovement units, perform an ENTER, an ABSORB, a RUN with a 2+ moove unit, or just pass his turn when I use Spring Growth. And I can't use it too much. If Persephone ABSORB it dosesn't apply, and I don't have an AOW card for each turn. - Your strategy to kill with a shooting team, I don't think it works. If you focus heros and monsters, he will just ABSORB and you won't have kill them all before he wins. However in 2v2, she should be really better. I must try her in 2v2. - Voice of Olympus wrote:
