Anaconda, 3r, Rare
Beast. Frenzy
If new: attack 6, next card will be Anaconda.
Else: attack 10.

This card, under the proper conditions, could be a real monster. (Pardon the pun.)

With 4 other Beasts in hand, This would be dealing 6, 16, 6, 16 due to the keyword. If one is another Frenzy, it would instead be 9, 19, 9, 19. In my experience with a Beast deck, you tend to have 4 or 5 Dungeons easily, so your opponent couldn't easily drop you below 3 recruits to cut you off from the chain, and even then, you just have to give it back the New tag to start right where you left off.

Versus the lower rarity Troll which does 5 14 14 14 14 ... for 6R, I don't think this is too good for a rare. And Troll doesn't need a new mark to get going again.

Effective use of Troll requires either a decent supply of recruits before starting or (near to) 6 Dungeons to sustain the damage output, and it can be discarded by any Banish card. This one has no such weakness.

Additionally, your opponent is more likely to be able to reduce your recruits below 6 than below 3, and when it comes down to it, 14 damage for 6 recruits on an Uncommon isn't that much an increase from the 12 you can squeeze out of Commons for the same cost.

I'd suggest increasing this card's cost and lowering its attack values to match (as the cost would add to the Frenzy damage). Making it an easier target for discard would also be welcome to bring it in line.

How would you make it an easier target for discard? Giving it the durable keyword would only make it more powerful.

Making it Durable would be an absolutely dreadful idea indeed.

Perhaps give it a Charge value and reduce its attack to compensate?

when I've made this card I've forgot the bonus attack given by the beast keyword. I lowered the attack and risen the cost (-1 +1). it is still strong but i think it's quite balanced for a rare. maybe I should remove frenzy...
