The pre-release for Hour of Devastation is upon us! And in preparation for it we here at The Dingus Egg wanted to give you some of the first impressions on the cards you will be seeing at your local LGS this weekend from the world’s top professionals.

To start things off, I’d like to share the insights of a close friend of mine, Sam Greathouse. She is a leading expert on lizards of the Amonkhet plane and has working with these little critters for nearly 10 minutes now.

Sam and I spent some time discussing the Frilled Sandwalla.

“So Sam, tell me all about this little guy.”

“[He’s] a small fashionista… trying to get a tan for the summer.” And I must admit it does look like this lizard is preparing for a summer of fun and relaxation. I can almost imagine him lying on the beaches of Amonkhet, pina colada in hand.

Sam’s deductions are certainly fascinating but you know us at The Dingus Egg. We are here for the hard facts.

“Is [the Frilled Sandwalla] a winner or a stinker?” we asked Sam.

After much consideration and hard calculations, Sam had to admit. “He serves up looks, but he’s a lover not a fighter.” So make sure you hide your partners before heading out to the pre-release, friends. You may end up losing them to this handsome devil.

But should you add him to your god fighting arsenal? Perhaps not. At the end of the day, the Frilled Sandwalla is a stinker.

Have a different opinion? Let us know!

Tomorrow we will be discussing the hippo we’ve all been waiting for with our local expert Cory Summers. See you then!
